How about the projector doesn’t have a aux what I do to get the sound out with my projector

[@azvascos7542]

Yes! Thank you!! I got a new Bluetooth speaker and couldn't wire it to work with an old projector. This saved a big outdoor movie night tonight, overnighted the part and plugged it into headphone jack, victory!

[@CandidTechTV]

Awesome, glad to hear!

[@johnoquin4645]

I looked all over and nobody had solution to chromecast video but listen to audio on bluetooth headset. You're vid made it easy. Thanks SO much. I am able to enjoy my projector in bed now !

[@CandidTechTV]

Awesome! Glad it helped

[@sallyj632]

Thank you! My projector has bluetooth, but of course it doesn't work no matter what. My Bose soundbar connects to all my other Bluetooth devices, but not the projector Bluetooth. So I tried this using a TaoTronics brand Bluetooth transmitter/receiver and boom, my Bose Soundbar connected within seconds! Works great!

[@CandidTechTV]

Awesome, glad to hear!

[@davinamariecomedy]

I am having the same issue with my Epson projector and my JBL soundbar that I just spend a boat load on (and my handyman already installed). Apparently they are NOT compatible with each other. Fingers crossed this works!

[@sallyj632]

@@davinamariecomedy It should work. A year later, and mine still connects just fine thanks to the Bluetooth transmitter/receiver!

[@simonspringett9909]

Another thing I don't think you mentioned is you can also power it directly from the USB port of the projector 😀

[@ariannacarson5905]

How ?

[@bigdmc6459]

@@ariannacarson5905 just plug the usb in to usb on projector make sure it’s a power usb on projector and not data

Thank you!! Finally a video that actually shows a solution! Very much appreciated - was able to connect my new projector with my blue tooth speaker.

[@famfun99]

I have major lag!! I’m going to get a second one to see if I can help it along but it’s frustrating. It does totally work for the sound bar but the lag… thanks for the advice.

[@USNAV]

How many bluetooth speakers can be pairer at same time?

[@omegafire6253]

I just bought two of these. If only i had this when doing my Halloween set up. I generally had the projector set up in my room facing to my window to view from outside but had my speakers tethered to projector with limited range that the audio came from in room where i needed speakers to be outside for louder clear audio. This year I'll be ready.

[@CandidTechTV]

Awesome, yeah you'll be set!

Can u connect multiple Bluetooth speakers for cheap surround sound

[@janieguimond5529]

Great Video. I hooked up perfectly...cheap projector paired to my good Bluetooth speakers easy. Only problem I see is even with my projector on max volume and not loud enough for outdoor movie. (I use my Bluetooth speakers with pc which has volume control , so I know they are plenty loud controlled by volume on PC. How can I get more volume on this set up VCR to Projector, Projector to Bluetooth speaker via a Bluetooth adapter? My speakers do not have volume control, vcr volume is turned up as high as it goes, projector volume is turned up as high as it goes.

[@konstantinosvathakos5827]

Thanks for the video, does the job indeed. Anyone can help however with the following two challenges I have please: 1. I have connected my BenQ projector to a Bose soundbar 300 and the sound is interrupted every couple of seconds. 2. Same configuration + tried on a different Bose MiniSoundLink and I get static noise. Probably something with the grounding as the problem doesn’t occur when I use my Bluetooth transmitter on a different device. Thanks all!

[@aalijustmay]

I’ve been having this challenge the last few months. I have a benq projector as well and have searching for a solution to connect it to my sound bar without the clutter of wiring. 😥

[@annaartemis]

thanks - exactly what I was looking for

[@pacers1755]

Great review! One question I have is can you pair multiple devices to it? Say I have two Bluetooth speakers and want to create more of a surround sound effect. Would I be able to do that or do you have a different device to recommend? I just got a BenQ TK850 and realized it doesn’t have Bluetooth :/

[@miafrench9688]

Very good, the fan is kinda loud but everything else is great!

[@xxwhitelightingxxful]

So this helped a lot. I everything set up and connected but my sound bar only plays out of 1 side. I know it is not the sound bar because my phone connects and it works from both sides. Was wondering if anyone has a solution

[@shawnsnider7604]

Can you recommend a good Bluetooth soundbar for projector BenQ

[@user-tm4my4jb6d]

Can multiple people connect to the audio at the same time?

[@halperinl324]

Can this pair with multiple sets of earbuds simultaneously? We need to connect multiple pairs of earbuds (up to 6 sets, for 6 viewers), as we're not allowed to use a speaker in our neighborhood.

[@Netozappa1]

Great video! I have my projector in the ceiling, so I can't turn the BT on and off easily. Do i need to turn it on every single time I want to use my projector? Thanks!

can you connect 2 JBL speakers to eachother and then have them connect to the transmitter at the same time on to the projector for a double bang?

Glad to help!

[@davinamariecomedy]

If this works, you are my hero.

[@CandidTechTV]

Hope it works out for you!

[@JPatoStar]

Simple device and pretty cheap I have to say, it’s good for portable projectors and stuff like that. Just keep in mind that this is a transmitter making an impression of a Bluetooth Tv/Projector so the quality might stutter depending on the device connected or other qualities but overall 8/10 if you don’t mind like 0.5 audio delay stings from time to time but barley notice it

[@CandidTechTV]

Good points!

[@jonkoklappertje7889]

Is it possible to just hook-up the micro-usb standard? So you won't have to charge it separately?

[@CandidTechTV]

Hey yeah I didn't mention that but you can hook it up to USB port on the projector and just leave it plugged in! The device will be charged anytime the projector is turned on (mine didn't charge in standby).

[@canadianbacon7609]

Hello, I have a Bose sound bar and it connected to my projector . Now I bought 2 Bose sr1 pro speakers . I wanted to get them all going at the same time. How can I do that?.. My Vava UST projector has Bluetooth but I want to sync all together . What’s your thoughts?.. thanks for any info

Small question/problem how do resolve having to pair it each time I wanna use it like I have Bose soundbar and my device keeps saying it found it (blinking blue light) but my Bose has no reaction or sign that it’s paired at all and my device is now stuck in a loop hole of failed to connect or “already connected”

[@manvirsingh7522]

Excellent information

[@skybox-101]

Could I connect a Iteknic to a speaker that only has composite wire out? I have not seen an adapter that takes from the copper wires to an aux. I have the adapter that goes from white and red plug in to an aux. Would it work if I stripped the red and white ends exposing the wires, attach those wires to the older speaker? Then attach the iteknic device and switch it to receive the projectors bluetooth audio comeing out of the projector?

[@patricklaine9469]

I want to transmit audio from a projector to a soundbar. Do I have to do the manual pairing every time when the devices turned on?

[@CandidTechTV]

Since it's BT 5.0, you should be able to just turn on the transmitter and as long as you didn't have the soundbar hooked up to anything else they will pair back together

My budget projector has crappy speakers. When I use an Auxillery cable, my external speaker is still too quiet for some movies. Is there a way to Bluetooth my phone to my speaker (which is much louder) while it is plugged into HDMI on the projector at the same time? I'm stumped on this one...

[@nesceebee]

It's good idea however Dolby Atmos surroud sound doesn't work.

[@erwins.7007]

I recently purchased a auking projector from amazon. I was wondering how to connect a surround sound system will this Bluetooth device work?

[@CandidTechTV]

It should. Does your surround system have BT built in? If so, you just pair this connected to the projector with it and it will transmit. You'd have it set to "TX" mode in that scenario.

[@Rockon072008]

I have Pyle blooth outdoor wall speakers. Is there any device sync from the projector to the speaker? like how we select from mobile phones. When I turned the projector either automatically connected or I can choose a blooth speaker?

[@CasinoEmployeee]

Great video...maybe you can help me a little. I’m actually trying to use two, JBL speakers that have a “Party mode” I can get them to connect to the transmitter & projector but there the audio doesn’t match the picture. I know you said two transmitters should solve this issue? One with TX and one with RX?

[@jwallace7230]

Don't use the speakers in "party mode". Just have both speakers turned off and then follow these steps... 1.)Turn on first speaker and place into pairing mode 2.)Power on the transmitter in TX mode and then place into pairing mode by the instructions for your device or like mine is after you power it up you simply tap the power button twice to place in pairing mode 3.) First speaker is paired and now shut that one off 4.)power up your 2nd speaker and place in pairing mode 5.)Follow steps in #2 to place the transmitter device into pairing mode and once connected turn the 2nd speaker off. 6.)Turn on first speaker and let it pair, then turn on 2nd speaker and enjoy the show. If you have them in party mode and you're only connected to one speaker and the other speaker is connected to the 1st speaker you will introduce and audio delay and even potentially an "echo". Just double pair the speakers to the Transmitter if you have this model or any 2 in 1 transmitter.

[@eddyrsportz]

@@jwallace7230 Hello, i am also trying to connect my projectors audio via Bluetooth to 3 JBL speakers that are Bluetooth 4.2. Projector has Bluetooth 5.0 but there is a horrible lag in audio. I was also using the Party mode. Is there a problem with BT 5.0 sending to BT 4.2 speakers specifically ? so reading your instructions above i would have to connect one by one then shut off then just turn them on and projector should pick them up at the same time? and maybe a 3rd speaker would be out of the question? thank you , good video. :)

[@jwallace7230]

@@eddyrsportz if your projector can handle multiple audio streams/devices via Bluetooth, then yes you can. Though if your projector has the newest Bluetooth module then it should have no problems with connecting to the speakers or have any noticeable lag. It may be your streaming service. I run into the issue if I pause my Netflix show or Hulu and then resume playback,, the audio gets a delay where I heard what they're saying before they say it on screen.

[@CoroaEntertainment]

Must use the Bluetooth 5.0 aptX version to help limit any audio latency issues (like the older versions of 4.0 and lower can suffer from).

[@CandidTechTV]

Yep I like the iTeknic ones I found because they are BT 5.0 and gave me no lag

[@deonteglass1740]

Would you have to pair this manually every time you turn the projector on? Or would it automatically connect as soon as you turn the Bluetooth and speakers on?

[@CandidTechTV]

It will remember the device and automatically connect again.

[@paulbatty007]

You can hook this up in that way to your audio out port and either wired with an aux cabler or use a transmitter like this and set it to transmit to send it to a speaker.

[@jesserosales3317]

[@coordinatestoheaven]

are the any latencies between the picture and the sound? looking to buy one for projector

[@CandidTechTV]

I found that when I'm using it with another Bluetooth 5.0 device, I haven't had latency. If your device is only Bluetooth 4.0 however there may be some latency.

[@rickcostanzo4396]

Okay so I got a crazy hookup kinda I got a boss Android head unit and get audio video out your RCA jacks? To 3.5 m Jack and I get sound minute I plug it into a Trenton's meter or receiver Bluetooth I don't get nothing how does the speaker find it and it's in auxiliary in on the projector and I'm running S-Video and basically you would think I take my two RCA's for my head unit and put a Bluetooth device there but for some reason I don't get nothing. I'm wondering since I have the speaker wires of the stereo head unit hook the speakers that that must eliminate the RCA out having volume or something I don't know why it should be so simple to RCA into a transmitter or receiver whichever I'm basically trying to play music it's in a camper I'm trying to play music through the stereo speakers and through a Bluetooth speaker while running my projector on the outside of the camper it doesn't have a USB in
