Atom - bluetooth headphones?

Posted by: ChetBaker on 30 December 2017

I am thinking of purchasing a pair of sennheiser momentum wireless headphones for watching TV and playing video games on my LG Oled. I have my TV connected to my Atom through hdmi arc and I’m wondering will the atom be able to connect to the senns through bluetooth? There is no workaround as the TV won’t pair with non-LG products.

My understanding is that the Atom has a bluetooth input only. ie. you can play music via blootooth but not connect headphones that way.

The only amp dac combo I know capable of Bluetooth out is the Yamaha musicast wcx 50, there may be a cheaper version of this, but they are a few hundred not 2 grand. But I have not heard them.

As Blythe says, the Naim streamers have a Bluetooth input, not a transmitter. It's possible to buy wireless headphone transmitters to add to a TV or music system.
