Depending on what is a 'low latency' for you, you should be careful when using TCP. Because of most of TCP's features (packets acknowledge and repeat, traffic congestion handling, adjustable window size) the latency on a TCP stream isn't predictable. This is why most of the streaming applications that require low latency use UDP instead.
