Don't have Bluetooth in my car so this did the trick since I do have an AUX port. Sound comes in clear and pairing is a snap unless you're away from your vehicle for more than a few days. Only flaw is that whenever you aren't playing any sound you'll get a whine playing instead.

I charged it once and it last a long time before you have to charge it again. You can also leave it charging while connected to your aux but in my car it makes a white noise but once you disconnect it from the charge as long as it's been charged enough, it would sound great.

Easy to use but the sound quality is excellent! Been using it for a while & no problems. Way better than an FM Transmitter & having to deal with switching stations all the time. No problems at all with this!!! Highly recommend!

Charges quickly. Easy to set up. Works well even with a receiver that is 15 years old. Nice to be able to stream music from my iPhone to stereo speakers.

I bought this to use in my girlfriend 2013 Equinox. The stereo that came with the car will only allow to blue tooth phone calling but will not allow blue tooth audio but does have a aux plug. The stereo cannot be changed so she is stuck with the stereo that came with the vehicle. By using this instead of using a jack to jack cord (like the jack you see in this picture) it eliminate excessive cords you can hide this where no one can see and still work. It also comes with a jack to RCA patch cord so it can be used with any stereo that has an aux in connection.To use this on your phone all you have to do is pair it.

Purchased this as I was tired of having my phone connected and have to always go to the receiver but now with this Bluetooth I can always have my phone in my pocket or at reach. Connectivity is pretty simple enough. Anyone can do it. However I am a bit concerned about the auxiliary cable it's rather flimsy and cheap. Be super careful about it.

This is an excellent product for streaming music through a home stereo system via bluetooth! I also tried using it while playing movies. It worked great at first but then the audio became 'un-synced' with the picture. I tried this several times but with the same results. I can recommend the product for music stream only. Other than that it's great!

This would be 5 stars however not very detailed in the description and the salesman told me it was wired. This requires a charge and even the instructions don’t say how long it will last. Estimated 5-6 hrs of comparable to other similar adapters. Cuts out on occasion when walking around walls.

I purchased this for connecting my iphone to my older outdoor patio stereo receiver system, using itunes. Works just as it should and pairs up nicely with my iphone 6 (and friends' phones), and so far has stayed connected. Good range also, staying connected inside my house at 32 feet away. No complaints, especially for something under $30.

I bought this product to use my classic iPod wirelessly. This product does NOT work with Bose wireless earphones. I gave it 4 stars because the product is compact and easy to use. Just plug in and you're done. Just happened not to work with Bose. Don't know how easy it would be to use with other wireless earphones.

This Bluetooth receiver connects my phone to my job site radio. The battery lasts me all day if I charge it at night. For some reason the range is only about 10 feet with my galaxy s7, but was a good 30 feet with my s5. I think the transmitter in my new phone is weak, because it only lost range when I switched devices.

Wanted to stop having wires running all over the place in my car. This is a great, very small, out of the way piece of equipment, long battery life and easy to set up.

My car is a 2008 model, so I always have to deal with hooking on an aux cable to my iPod when I want to listen to iTunes. I picked up one for myself when I bought one for a friend, and after a few hiccups, I got it to work. Make sure you grab the correct one -- I have an iPhone 6, and some models are for the 5s. And then make sure that when you want to connect, you hold the button down until the LED changes colors, then pair to the device. That info wasn't in the package; I found it online when I couldn't get it to work initially. But since I figured that out, it's been a breeze.

Everything You Need

This kit is very good at getting the job done; the transmitter can plug into either a 3.5" jack or RCA inputs (an RCA adapter is included), and has worked on pretty much everything I've thrown at it, including my car, home theater, and boombox. The sound quality you get from using it is what you'd expect from a Bluetooth system: clear enough for everyday use. Compared to the other, lower-priced options you can find around the web, this one is a bit better in sound quality and feel of the dongle itself. It's a little bit of a bummer that you'll need to charge its battery every few hours (or leave it connected to power if you can), but that's what it needs to take care of you. Overall, a very nice product.
