bluetooth "transmitter" from rcvr to bluetooth speakers?

[akplu]

Hi: 1st, this is a verbatim repost from my own just placed (16june23) post at DIY audio. I am holding off buying anything till I have good opinions, tx.

what opinions do you have for buying a bluetooth transmitter?

-what I have -- nada, waiting to see what answers I get from audio websites.

-what I want: to plug into the rca speaker output jacks on my yamaha audio receivers, a bluetooth "transmitter." That is, do I have the right term for the equipment? the "transmitter" sends the receiver speaker jack output (rca) to the "transmitter" instead of to a wired (nonpowered) standard hifi speaker. The "transmitter" transforms the signal to bluetooth, which then is read by a (wireless) bluetooth speaker, which plays the sound (music, whatever) as if it was a wired speaker.


-what I want, vol. 2: if I got the term & equipment right, what are good (not top-of-the-line, if any, so $150 or less) "transmitter" products doing that job, and how hard to find & order?


-What I've found: 1mii is a brand (made in china, no phone support listed on web, but has email address). They show on amazon, a 1mii model B03pro+ for $90, which says it "Use B03Pro+ as a Bluetooth Transmitter can also be used to connect Bluetooth headphones or Bluetooth speakers to your existing TV." I would use it to connect for audio from yamaha (audio) receivers.


Does that sound right to you? Do you have experience setting up/using/owning one? If so, how good is it? Other brands/models you might consider worth looking at within my specs?

Thank you.

What is your goal here? Are you trying to get music to another room separate from your receiver?
I think the best way to ask this question is to explain what you want to accomplish, and then folks can give you suggestions.
This may or may not include Bluetooth.
One thing to note is that Bluetooth is lossy, meaning you lose some fidelity in the process.

Tx!
-yes to your 1st ques. Want to use bluetooth speakers in 2 rooms, but neither have the receiver.
-Lucky, bluetooth will serve in these spaces.
-I don't care if bluetooth is lossy.
Tx.

If you have Bluetooth speakers, they can operate without any separate power source or receiver/transmitter. They have their own built-in power source and receive signals from your smart phone, tablet, or other Bluetooth enabled devices paired with the speakers. A Bluetooth transmitter will transmit the signal to your receiver and/or to your Bluetooth speakers. There are plenty of cheap Bluetooth transmitters/receivers out there and then there's this really nice one for $500 new.

i do this with using a "avantree oasis transmitter" but i am using optical input. you would need another converter to make it rca.
i get coverage to most of my backyard after lots of trial and error. (200 ft )
bluetooth is finicky. walls and hard surfaces can impede the signal, even walking around can cause issues.

my house is aluminum sided stucco, and after some trial and error i found where the transmitter needs to be, but doors and walls can screw up the signal if the transmitter is not placed well.

reception in the back porch is poor thats 3 interior walls away.

note: most bluetooth will pair with only one device at a time. then the recieving speakers need to be the same brand to pair to each other or "link"

also, they do not transmit stereo, you need 2 of the same brand speaker and "their" propitiatory app to make that happen.
