I have a Samsung 55" Curved Smart TV (UE55J6300) and am looking to connect a pair of headphones.
I know I can connect wirelessly using Bluetooth, but want an alternative in case there's an issue with audio lag (can't stand poorly synched dialogue/sound!)
I have checked the back of the TV and there is a 3.5mm socket with a headphones symbol next to it and this works but obviously the headphones lead isn't long enough, so firstly can anyone recommend a reliable extension lead? What exactly do I need?
Secondly, I wanted to double-check this was the BEST way to listen to the audio. There is also a DIGITAL AUDIO OUT (OPTICAL) socket which currently links my TV to a soundbar, but I've heard this could possibly take the headphones via some kind of digital to analog converter. (Any help on this would be great.)
So of these two options, am I best sticking with the headphone socket or will the digital audio out socket provide me with better results?
Your knowledge and advice will be much appreciated.
