Re: Wireless Audio for Research

Hi David,

I don't have experience with streaming audio wirelessly. But in case you want to avoid any problems altogether you could try having a device wired to the loudspeakers outputting sound, and a remote interface (e.g. your tablet) controlling the first device.

Regards,

Dimitris

Hi All,

I was wondering if anyone had thoughts about wireless audio connections
for research.  We are running our spectral resolution task (SMRT;
smrt.tigerspeech.com) on a small windows 8.1 tablet.  It would be nice
for the audio to be transferred wireless to the speakers.  I am
considered about degrading the signal quality.

Any suggestions on how to do this without adding signal noise or lossy
data compression?  I understand bluetooth is not acceptable.  What
about  using airplay, miracast, or chromecast?  Has anyone had luck /
experience with these technologies for wireless PC audio streaming of
quality acceptable for psychoacoustic research?

Thanks,
David
