Projector to bluetooth sound bar

[krishna.vatsvayi]

planning to buy JBL3.1 sound bar and connect it to epson 2150 projector without wires, can i connect a bluetooth transmitter in 3.5 mm jack of projector and connect to sound bar via bluetooth and will there be any lag in audio while watching movies. Distance between projector and bar is approx 15 feet. Please advise of anyother options.

A low latency transmitter like this one

should be OK but you will have to try it to be sure. The distance isn't the issue it's the time it takes to convert analog to digital and then to RF and back again at the other end.
You won't get the best sound quality however since you will have to use an analog input on the soundbar.
If you could run your sources into the soundbar with HDMI and connect its' HDMI out to the projector that would avoid any possible lag and give you the best sound.

Projectors don't support HDMI-ARC so you can't get audio out of the projector from an HDMI input on it.
If the soundbar has HDMI in AND out then connect the stick to the input and the output to the projector.
If the projector has an analog audio output use that.
