The star has brand new TV's with Bluetooth connectivity so they can be used as speakers. They can get LOUD..but it's a very nice feature for enjoying music on something more robust than a phone speaker. I'd say the TV speakers are above average.

 

Thanks for the info. Great news

Pretty cool. Bluetooth headsets aren't expensive and you could listen as loud as you liked with nobody else hearing a thing. Or... Were you saying the TV can be used as a speaker and didn't mean that they can also broadcast? Hopefully they can go both ways.

 

Meant that you can connect phone or tablet with Bluetooth to TV's and play music from your device on TV speakers. You can also play video/photos on the tvs from your device with a USB plug however the setup was not intuitive and you need to be able to navigate folders and put files in certain locations on your phone to be able to view videos. Some phones or services don't allow this (ie downloaded Netflix episodes can't be viewed like videos you take with your camera).

I have Apple "airpods" which are wireless Bluetooth ear buds. You plug in a Bluetooth transmitter to the head phone jack of the TV (or any headphone jack for that matter) and it broadcasts the sound to the airpods wirelessly. No bothering anyone else. Works great for late night TV too.

 

This is the one I have, works great and has great range. It can handle two sets of airpods so you and your mate can listen at the same time. (or just use one airpod for each of you)

Thank you for this info.
