Hi there, I am getting a Sony theatre U neckband for my Xbox series X. Looking for a reasonably priced Dolby Atmos system other than my Xbox headset which gives Dolby Atmos and are excellent. However I suffer from tinnitus and started looking for a Dolby Atmos system, so found this neckband. Anyway, after extensive research and finding out that my series X does not support Bluetooth, I got to this neckband. It comes with a 3.5mm jack so I can connect the neckband directly to the Sx. Alternatively I could connect it to my Sony Bravia panel directly and get spatial sound that way. I have heard the sound quality is amazing. I spent about a week trying to get answers wrt compatibility. It’s actually quite simple in the end just need to plug in the 3.5mm jack and voila! I was wondering if you have had any experience with a Sony neckband connecting to a series X?

I ordered this about a month ago. So to start it wouldn't pair with my regular earbuds but lucky for me it claims to be compatible with TWS earbuds, so I ordered some. In the long run it didn't work with any of my earbuds whether or not they support TWS. Folks if you want to make a sandwich while watching netflix just get the official xbox headset.

the issue with this is it doesn't use your bluetooth headsets microphone instead it using the mic built into the puck which is just an open mic so it picks up everything with no no cancelling

@djbryson 4 күн бұрын

Yeah, and the other issue is, why does the adapter need to be charged? Either the USB interface doesn't support it or the dongle doesn't. Either way, that sucks. Now you're having to charge the headset AND the dongle. I have an older Turtle Beach with a dongle that is not bluetooth. Wired headset connects to it. Only thing I need to worry about charging is the controller.

*** You can bypass the Xbox by using the Xbox App and do the headphone audio by using the Xbox app on 5our phone or tablet. You're even able to create or join parties through the app *** This guy seems cool. It's too bad he takes too long to get to the point. I had to leave the video to find a better video so I didn't have to skip around. Hopefully he gets better the more he posts 🤷‍♂️

I did the same with the Xbox app ( through remote play) it does work however there seems to be a delay of 1 or 2 seconds. Which is just enough to be completely annoying. Example. If I'm playing Halo multiplayer online and I throw a grenade, I hear the explosion on a delay. Same goes with gunfire ect. Do you experience this problem as well? If anyone has a solution Im all ears. I've already tried: -connecting a Bluetooth dongle to the Xbox -tried connecting the dongle to the usb port on TV -and tried using the Roku app private listing option for the TV, but it automatically switches off when selecting the USB input which the Xbox is connected to. None of these work. Thanks in advance if anyone has some suggestions.

The one reason why the Series S was a non starter for me was the exclusion of Bluetooth. For a moment I thought that this was going to be the solution until we see that you still require an Xbox controller. And I'm surprised that only Amazon seem to stock this device, or at least this is the impression clearly left. Is there commission attached to the number of times you mention the company/

@zdnetvideo Жыл бұрын

It really depends on which earbuds/headphones you’re pairing to the adapter. AirPods, for example, can’t be in your ears when pairing. Instead, you have to watch the status light go from blinking white to green. Other headphones, however, can be worn during the pairing process and will play a chime when the connection is successful. - Jason, video host

@jarg8 10 ай бұрын

Every company has to licence the Xbox or PS5 to get their headset on there plus they can sell you their proprietary ones. There's no reason other than that they can milk us until everything catches up and they have no choice but to allow Blu tooth capability. This has always been easy money for them in the same way that they get a 30 percent cut of everything on their store. The more passive income, the less they have to make up for selling their consoles at a loss and can turn everything into a profit margin for them
