Solved! Convert bluetooth CD player so it can broadcast?

[postzoo]

Sorry if this has already been asked/solved! I couldn't find the info I'm looking for....I have Bose SoundLink II bluetooth headphones. They work, no problem. BUT I just got a bluetooth Jensen CD player (Model CD-555) so I could listen to audiobooks on CD through my bluetooth headphones. I'm a novice, so don't judge, but just found out that I can't do that -- the CD player cannot broadcast to the headphones, it can only receive the signal. So what do I do? Is there someway I can do this, listen to bluetooth Cd player through my bluetooth headphones? An adaptor or something? Or am I simply out of luck? Thanks so much!!

There are bluetooth transmitters which you can plug into a headphone jack and will broadcast over bluetooth. Just be aware that many of them add about 200-500 ms of lag, which can be a problem if you're trying to do a live broadcast or playing audio which needs to be synchronized with video.

This one is just the first one which came up on a search. I dunno how good it is.

So...I would plug the transmitter into my CD player's headphone jack and then I'd be able to use my bluetooth headphones with it?
