  • QuestionDoes this stream TO bluetooth ear buds?

    Asked by CB.

    • Answer Apparently this is only for Bluetooth 'input' - play music FROM an android or iOS device. To use it for Bluetooth 'output' (connect to Bluetooth headphones or speaker) I would recommend a rechargeable Bluetooth transmitter/receiver, which would plug into the headphone jack then via the Bluetooth transmitter/receiver you can connect your headphones or speakers. The problem with doing that on this particular model is that this boombox does not have a USB port (as most other models without Bluetooth built in have for connecting a device to stream from), which you would need to power the transmitter if the battery on the transmitter runs out and you aren't near a power supply. If you are near power supply at all times then you can power your boombox and transmitter but if you plan to stuff your boombox with batteries and take it on-the-go to use with Bluetooth headphones then just make sure you have charged up your transmitter. I use Bluetooth transmitters on my TV's (plug into headphone jack/power via USB port on the TV) to enjoy my shows with my favorite, killer wireless headphones. A transmitter is a must-have for any Bluetooth needs!

  • QuestionBest Buy said that it comes with a remote. Does this one come with a remote or can you tell me which model does.

    Asked by wanderer.

    • Answer No, the Insignia NS-BBBB20 Multi-Function Bluetooth Stereo Boombox did not have a remote control. In fact, I have returned it because the button functionality is poor -- very hard to press and mounted crookedly -- and the CD motor also makes a regular ticking noise which is very noticeable when no CD is playing and somewhat noticeable if you are next to the machine and playing a CD at low to moderate volume.

  • QuestionI sm looking for CD player that my husband can use his wireless headphones to access his favorite cd's. Will this work

    Asked by Blue.

    • Answer No. You will need to get him a Bluetooth transmitter/receiver along with a boombox - regardless of which model boombox you decide on. The Bluetooth technology on this model is for connecting an android or iOS phone, tablet or any other Bluetooth device to stream a music playlist or audio book from that, using the boombox as speakers. Units without Bluetooth have an alternative USB port to connect those devices and then play from those devices. Having Bluetooth built-in to the boombox just allows you to control your playlist on your android, iOS or music player from across the room, keeping it in your hand. Adding a Bluetooth transmitter/receiver and plug it into the headphone jack on the boombox will allow you to use wireless headphones for listening to CD,'s, the radio, cassettes, or a playlist that is wierelesly connected to the boombox via the Bluetooth technology built into the boombox. With a Bluetooth transmitter/receiver you can turn ANY device with a 3.5 headphone jack into Bluetooth heaven including TV's! The transmitter is rechargeable via USB so on this boombox model you will need to either keep it charged by plugging into a wall socket along with the boombox or make sure you have it charged up if you take it on-the-go. A fully charged transmitter can last a long time, just check the specs if that is something you will need to know.

  • QuestionCan a turntable be hooked up to this boombox?

    Asked by Writer9.

    • Answer Thank you for your inquiry! Yes, you can connect a turntable to the Insignia™ AM/FM Radio Portable CD Boombox with Bluetooth using the 3.5mm audio line-in input. However, there are a few things to consider. Most turntables require a phono preamp to amplify the signal to a line level. If your turntable does not have a built-in preamp, you'll need an external one. You'll also need the appropriate cables to connect your turntable to the boombox, typically involving RCA cables from the turntable to a 3.5mm adapter that plugs into the boombox's line-in port. For a turntable with a built-in preamp, you can connect directly to the boombox using an RCA to 3.5mm cable. For a turntable without a built-in preamp, connect the turntable to an external phono preamp, then connect the preamp to the boombox using an RCA to 3.5mm cable. This setup should allow you to enjoy your vinyl records through the boombox. Keith | Insignia Support
