Regarding delay, It depends on the transceiver and receiver and type of connection (coax PCM, or optical Toslink). Coax PCM won't have a delay once it's locked, because it's already a clocked digital signal (the host still has to take a very brief moment to lock sampling and bit rates). Optical is worse. The transceivers convert light pulses back into PCM signals, and it buffers.
This has optical input. You will have a delay.
It may not be noticeable to you, but there is an inherent, unavoidable delay.
A quick review of various SPDIF chipsets indicate direct digital conversion, no buffering and propagation delays on the order of tens of nanoseconds.
Even if there was many bytes of "buffering" in the SPDIF to PCM conversion it would still be well below what we were discussing which was "SPDIF won't have any perceptible delay, certainly not 100s of milliseconds".
Now of course you could conceiver of an interface with DSP and substantial buffer that is terribly designed but it has nothing to do with an even mediocre implementation of SPDIF to analog signal.
If anything HDMI would be WORSE as the digital signal processing required to manage packets and audio frames are far more complex than a basic optical to PCM to analog converson.
Thanks for the input in any case I guess. spelling out SPDIF and it's development date did make you sound super smart!
Whatever the output is likely had an issue?
If they have another product that is a similar size, I am all ears.
The cat6 rj45 Ethernet network cable can be used.
What part fails?
Best Buy another from eBay. The Best Buy unit died within 16 months and was replaced by Best Buy, the eBay unit has connectivity issues but it cannot be returned anymore. My Best Buy unit was used as a 2.1 channel speaker system. It had been replaced with the passive LS50 Meta plus SB3000 with the receiver handling the crossover / bass management.

If you connect wireless or even spdif digital input, there would be a slight delay from your actions on the screen. Probably not drastic. But a few hundred milliseconds. Bluetooth would be worse.
Edit: I forgot these don't have an analog connection between the two speakers (speaker wire) until another comment pointed it out.
You must use Ethernet or wifi for the other speaker. This will add slightly more delay.
Hard pass for desktop / gaming.
With all due respect, there is no noticeable delay using optical cable. Few hundred millisecond is very noticeable and when I used these via optical cable I didn't notice any delay while playing FPS games.

Can you please describe the connectivity issues and audio dropouts? Did you connect them to each other with an Ethernet cable?
