How to Remove Echo When Using the Transmitter – Avantree Support

Hearing an echo, double sound, or slight delay when your TV speakers and Avantree headphones are playing together? This usually happens because you are hearing the same TV audio from two different sound paths.

Start Here

First, balance the TV and headphone volume

Lower the TV speaker volume, then increase the volume directly on your connected headphones until the voices sound clear and the echo is less noticeable.

Why do I hear an echo?

Your TV speakers and headphones can play the same sound at slightly different times. When both are loud enough to hear clearly, this can sound like an echo.

TV Speakers Sound from the TV

Headphones Sound from the transmitter

Hearing both sound paths together can create an echo or double-sound effect.

Try This First

You usually do not need to change your transmitter settings.

Lower the TV speaker volume

Use your TV remote to gradually lower the TV speaker volume.

TV Speakers: Lower

Increase the headphone volume

Adjust the volume directly on the headphones until the person wearing them can hear comfortably.

Headphones: Increase

Listen again

Keep adjusting the two volume levels until the TV speakers are comfortable for the room and the headphone audio is clear for the listener.

Simple rule

If one person needs louder sound, let that person use the headphones at their preferred volume while keeping the TV speakers lower for everyone else.

Best Way to Eliminate the Echo

Turn off the TV speakers and listen through headphones only

If the echo is still distracting, turn off or mute the TV speakers. This removes the second sound path that causes the echo.

If more than one person is watching, each person can use compatible headphones and control their own listening volume.

Listener 1 Sets their own headphone volume

Listener 2 Sets their own headphone volume

Still hearing an echo?

If the TV speakers are completely muted but you still hear an echo or repeated audio through the headphones, the issue may be different from TV-speaker/headphone volume balance. Contact us with your TV model, transmitter model, and the devices you are listening with.
