Avantree HT5009 - Wireless Headphones for TV Watching with Clear Dialogue Mode, Enhanced Volume & Comfortable Fit for Seniors, 40hrs Bluetooth Headset, 164ft, Pass-Through Support, No Audio Delay

Wow...You guys are great. This is my second set of Avantree headphones. The first lasted a very long time. They make watching TV with my wife enjoyable for both of us as she has good hearing and I'm an old Navy fighter pilot and can't hear much without them. Life is good again and they were easy to get working for a guy born in the 40s (ouch).

Avantree's customer service is the best. If your having a problem with any of their products , they will work with you, answer any questions or walk you through and technical situation untill it is fixed. I worked with a customer service representative named Rie, she helped me connect my wireless headset to my TV. She did an awesome job for me. !

Set up was very easy. The signal is strong and recharging is simple. The audio quality, however, is less than expected; it is rather "tinny." I contacted customer support which responded immediately but the recommended solutions did not improve the quality of the audio. Today I received an email from the manufacturer suggesting I purchase a much more expensive model for improved audio. I will unhappily stick with what I have.

These headphones have been so helpful whenever my hard-of-hearing sister comes to visit. When she’s at her own home her hearing aids work with her tv. I needed a way for her to hear MY tv. These headphones are wonderful, allowing us to enjoy tv together. While the headphones are great, the customer service at Avantree is superb. I was having difficulty figuring out how to hook everything up since I have a soundbar. Jeany in customer support patiently walked me through it and got me up and running in no time. Great company!

The Avantree 5009 plus was much easier and faster to setup and connect than expected. I did add 2 USB power wall adapters instead of tv power outlet. As I have considerable hearing loss, the wireless headphones deliver a clear, solid sound with plenty of volume adjustment. A very good buy for the price.

I'm now on my second Avantree product for TV watching/listening. I've used their Audition Pro for many (many!) years and it has served me exceptionally well. But, since the headband is completely worn out and I've gone through a few sets of ear pads, I decided it was time for a replacement. Rather than try for another Audition Pro (I don't think they even still make it) I opted for the HT5009 headset/transmitter package. Very easy to set up the transmitter (I'm using the optical connection with pass through to my sound bar), and the headphones pair quickly and reliably. The headset fits my head and ears as well as the old Audition Pro - very light and comfortable. Sound quality is excellent and I can set the equalization for voice or music listening with a toggle on the headset. The transmitter will support two headphones and will even pair with my old Audition Pro but it isn't a good solution as the voice/video are not perfectly in sync with that old headset. I guess if you want to use two headphones with the transmitter then stick with the headphone model they recommend. One caveat, if you integrate your sound bar and TV via HDMI then the transmitter may not be the best choice as it has to connect via headphone cable or optical connection. And your TV must be set to use PCM output. This is OK for me but might not be for you. All in all, this is a really great solution for TV listening for long after your partner heads off to bed or if you have trouble hearing the dialog on some TV shows. I've not had to use Avantree tech support but there are all sorts of ways to contact them if needed and I feel they will be standing by for my call or email. Highly recommended.UPDATE: I found out that, depending on your TV and sound bar, you can connect your TV to the sound bar via HDMI (allows the TV to turn on/off the sound bar, adjust volume, etc.) and still use the TV's optical output to drive the Avantree headphone transmitter. Still have to set the sound output to PCM (and not Dolby, etc.) but the sound quality is still great on my sound bar. And, since the Avantree transmitter has an optical splitter built in, I now have an optical cable running from the Avantree transmitter to my old low latency bluetooth transmitter that connects to my old Avantree Audition Pro headset. Voila! Both new and old Avantree headsets now connect perfectly so I'm set up for two listeners at once. Even more recommended now.
