Bluetooth Headphones compatibility w755c

Essosch — Wed, 03 Aug 2016 19:58:45 GMT

Hey guys,

just want to know if i can use these headphone or any other bluetooth headsets on my KDL-50W755C:

I am asking because the protocols supported are as listed are : Bluetooth® (HID/HOGP/3DSP/SPP) and I think bluetooth headphones sent A2DP. But it would be insane if the TV doesnt support Bluetooth headphones.

Thx in advance

Julian

Hi there

Unfortunately you are correct. Android TVs, in fact all of Sony TV range does not support the A2DP bluetooth protocol. Therefore you cannot connect any bluetooth headphones to the TV.

This has been raised with Sony as a most requested feature.

Cheers

Hi @Essosch

What i forgot to mention was you can purchase a bluetooth transmitter that plugs into the TVs headphone socket. A couple of suggestions are:

Have a read of:

If i had half a brain I would have mentioned this earlier
