Accessory Audio: Bluetooth Transmitter

[confusis]

Niche use case but here goes:

I have a set of Sennheiser CX 6.00 BT earbuds (amazing, BTW. Comfortable, sound blocking, great sound quality), and they work in all situations except one: in flight entertainment systems without Bluetooth. Does anyone know of a viable adapter to use in this situation?

Ideally would take a 3.5mm jack input, powered internally or by USB.

First result on Google, don't know if available in NZ.

FYI, I've had a large number of problems trying to get BT TX installed / configured. It's a pain. The devices just never want to associate with non-computer devices (headsets, speakers, etc). Best of luck!

I'd suggest this one, and it allows multiple Bluetooth headphones simultaneously: http://www.avantree.com/bluetooth-audio-transmitter-avantree-priva-iii.html

If you want to spend a couple extra dollars you can get their model with RX and TX functionality:

I have purchased 3 of these myself and their good quality and work great.

just don't sleep with your adapted headphones on or the jack with get loose and you'll only get one side of audio... might have done that to a couple... just a heads up
