Expect problems with wireless audio receivers and adapters

I've been looking for a Bluetooth transceiver for a long time and saw this MouKey device with a 25% discount on my travels, so I ordered it for a trial. It is a tiny, lightweight box measuring 7.5cm x 6cm, approximately 2cm high and weighing 60g. The weight of cords that are easy to use could pull them off the shelf or tip them over despite the small gripping feet on the bottom. There is no USB power plug, just a short USB-A/USB-C cable. There is no battery so you have to plug it in to use it. Pairing was a very tedious affair. The devices must be close enough to the MBRT1 to pair. It seemed that when connecting different devices, I had to put both the transmitter and the headphones/speakers into pairing mode. This may be intentional as it remembers the last used device for later reconnection. Most importantly, I was NOT able to plug in two headphones at the same time! I connected to the Samsung Galaxy Buds and a powered speaker at the same time, but connecting one set of buds to another caused horrible electronic noise from one set of buds and the other went offline. I tried a pair of Buds with Bose QuietComfort 35 headphones and the minute the second headset was plugged in, the first turned off and the first turned back on when the second pair turned off. Through research I have learned that there may be technical limitations. connect any two headphones together due to the limitations of the TWS (True Wireless Stereo) protocol. Obviously this is a separate signal sent to each of the two headphones (left and right for stereo) so you are already getting two simultaneous signals from ONE headphone. I emailed support and after waiting 3 days, received a reply asking me to delete paired devices and restart the device. I give the device two stars instead of one because the device has enough connections. Many of them don't have RCA, but this one does, along with coax, SPDIF and a 3.5mm AUX. I'm not sure I'll keep this device to myself. Maybe there are better options.

Pros

Easy to Use: You don't need to be a techie, just press a few simple buttons to pair. You can connect two Bluetooth headsets or speakers at the same time.

Cons
