ARC HDMI Bluetooth Transmitter Adapter for Connecting Bluetooth Headphones to TV
ARC HDMI Bluetooth Transmitter Bundle for TV
While there currently aren’t any 1-stop-product that can 1) extract audio from your ARC HDMI port, and 2) Send the audio signal to a Bluetooth headphone or speaker wirelessly… we do have a few bundle options that can get the job done.
These bundles all include an ARC HDMI audio extractor AND a Bluetooth transmitter that supports Digital Optical audio.
Depending on your setup as well as your requirements, you may have a few different choices.
1-1 Basic Option: HAX04 ARC Audio Extractor + Audikast Plus Bluetooth Transmitter
The Avantree Audikast Plus is a basic entry level Bluetooth transmitter that will give you just what you need. This option is suitable for users who would like to use the Bluetooth headphones that he/she already owns.
The transmitter is certified with Qualcomm's aptX Low Latency technology; when used with Bluetooth headphones or speakers that also support aptX LL, they'll fully eliminate the notorious Bluetooth audio lag issue and you'll be able to enjoy perfectly synchronized visual & audio.

1-2 Advanced Option (Sound Bar & AV Receiver Support): HAX04 ARC HDMI Extractor + Oasis Plus Bluetooth Transmitter
This option is for users who 1) already has his/her own pair of Bluetooth headphones and 2) have external speakers such as a sound bar or stereo AV receiver connected to TV.
The Avantree Oasis Plus is a Bluetooth transmitter that features "Audio Pass-through"; this feature allows audio to be played through the external speakers AND the Bluetooth headphones (that are paired to Oasis Plus) simlutaneously.

On the other hand, if you do not already own a pair of Bluetooth headphones and would like to purchase one with the bundle, we also have some great recommendations for you.
2-1 Basic Option: HAX04 ARC HDMI Extractor + Ensemble TV Bluetooth Set
The Avantree Ensemble is a Bluetooth headphone + transmitter base combo; the transmitter base doubles as a charging dock. The headphones and the transmitter are factory paired so there's no need to go through the complicated Bluetooth pairing procedure.
The Ensemble features built-in low latency Bluetooth so the visual & audio will always be synchronized.
2-2 Advanced Option: HAX04 ARC HDMI Extractor + Opera TV Bluetooth Set
This option is for people who already has an external TV speaker such as a sound bar or a stereo AV receiver connected to the TV but would like to use it alongside the new headphones.
The Avantree Opera is the ideal Bluetooth transmitter and over-ear headphone set. It comes pre-paired from the factory, is low latency certified, can work simultaneously with a sound bar or AVR, allows two headphones connection and provides 3 EQ settings to personalize your audio, all to help you get the most out of your TV viewing experience.
