“Is the 30ft range presuming typical bluetooth transmission from a TV or phone? If signal is from a dedicated device (MeeAudio Connect Hub - 100 ft range, or even longer-distance transmitters) would XB22 speakers not provide decent stereo sound?”

Thanks Ralph, especially for such a prompt answer, but I just want to make sure we are on the same page. So are you saying it doesn't matter what device is transmitting the bluetooth signal, and/or whether the transmitter can send it's signal a distance of 100+ feet THROUGH a wall? And that because the Sony speaker's normal range is line-of-sight 30 feet, that a 200+ ft range bluetooth transmitting device would still have to be located within 30 feet of that Sony XB22 speaker? Obviously I'm not a bluetooth expert or I would not have asked my original question. But "30 feet and no walls - with no exceptions" makes me wonder why so many extended range transmitters are out there if 99.9% of the usual receiving devices would not be able to take advantage of the extended-range transmitters. I don't want to abandon consideration of those Sony speakers before confirming I definitely need to. thx
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Hi JTAZ, A power-class 2 Bluetooth wireless device has a transmission operating range of approximately 30 feet (10 meters) within a line of sight but will vary depending on the surrounding conditions. NOTE: Communication range will vary according to whether walls or other obstacles are located between the devices, the material used in the intervening walls, the presence of Radio Frequency (RF) interference and other environmental conditions, and the type of software being used, if applicable. ~Ralph
