Mike Brooks 670 Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Have a L188DRS ,on a swing bracket turn 180 degree ,when at one end of MH volume ok ,when at the other end volume poor . As with all ultra slim tv speakers are small and face backwards . Have thought of blue tooth ,wifi ,but been told pic and speech could be out of sync . Hard wire seems the best but route from tv to where we sit would be very very complicated . Any ideas ? Thanks . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerry McG Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 I'd give BTW a try first. We have a 18" Cello Traveller TV and the sound is poor. But It pairs up OK with our Bose BT speaker and is more than adequate and the sync is fine too. Trying BT would certainly be easier in the first instance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burgo Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Re synch. On some TVs if you ferret around in the sound settings on some there is a setting you can tweak to get the picture synced with external sound bars / speakers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tracker Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Mike Brooks 670 - 2018-02-21 8:05 PM PS Not being a teche what do you plug into the tv to transmit to the speaker . Mine has a 3.5 mm jack plug and lead that plugs into the tv earphone socket but newer ones can be bluetooth as long as your tv will transmit the sound by bluetooth which mine does not being old! It charges by usb from a usb socket anywhere and when charged it lasts a good few hours if free standing or can work continuously if left plugged in. I'm surprised they are no longer available.

Jrr Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 Hi mike.the one I bought is the is hive 2 plus. The only wire needed is the one for earphone plug to the speaker plus the USB charge lead both are supplied with the speaker the speaker has a built in battery which is rechargeable and lasts for 12hours you can also use the speaker on yourmobile phone and many other uses I use mine in the van and also on my iPad.have a look on amazon they are cheaper than marlins all the best.

Wonkybass Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 We bought one of these https://www.amazon.co.uk/Bluetooth-Speakers-ELEGIANT-Multi-function-smartphone-Lautsprehcer/dp/B01LPJYEPQ last year. We run a wire from the Avtex headphone output to the sound bar as the Bluetooth (BT) delay using a plug-in bluetooth adapter was noticeable and couldn’t be avoided. I used double sided tape to suspend it underneath the TV and two strips of flexible PVC insulating tape as additional support and to angle the soundbar for our particular location. I thought I’d try a different method if it detached but it’s still there 6 months later! We recharge from usb when necessary but it lasts quite a while, Recharging whilst listening produces sound interference. It’s loud and clear. It’s exactly what we wanted having been fed up with the Avtex sound and then trying a more expensive triangular BT speaker that sounded great but was too heavy and large to attach to the TV. Perching the speaker on the upholstery and stowing it for each journey soon lost it’s appeal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plwsm2000 Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 You could also try something like this - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Transmitter-AVANTEK-Universal-Adapter-Charger-MM34/dp/B01794I0WE. These come in different shapes and sizes and just broadcast the audio from your TV/phone to your normal FM car radio (just tune in the radio to a frequency that you should set away from normal radio stations). These do NOT use Bluetooth and although the sound quality is generally not as good as BT, there is no latency so no sync problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
