useful I bought this to play music from my phone to my stereo. It works great. There is some audio quality lost in the process but not much. November 20, 2012
Best purchase Living in a Condo along the Hawaii coast where noise echos like crazy, this transmitter allows me to watch TV with my hearing aid using bluetooth technology awesome product. December 15, 2011
Decent Unit I purchased this unit because I am a college student with an iPhone and a Bluetooth enabled laptop and the idea of a nice set of Bluetooth speakers really intrigued me. I didn't like the fact that current Bluetooth speaker systems sacrifice sound quality. So I decided to buy nicer speakers that were wired and then use this unit to add the Bluetooth functionality. The sound quality from my iPhone is, to my ear, identical to that from a direct line out from the headphone jack. The sound quality does not seem to degrade as I increase the distance between the phone and the receiver. The sound quality from my laptop is less than stellar but this seems to be an issue with the laptop, not the receiver. The unit works fairly well considering the limitations of Bluetooth technology. The range on the system does not exceed 10ft. in my apartment. I do have a WiFi router so it might be interfering. Sometimes the sound will cut out and come back on a sec later within the 10ft. radius but is decently reliable overall. Overall, although this unit is expensive, it is a decent unit that works with the currently limitations of Bluetooth tech quite well. It works well in the application I have it in and would recommend it to anyone with a similar application in mind. It also transmits apparently, although I have not tested it in this application as of yet. February 8, 2011
Exactly what i've been looking for. Great buy. April 23, 2010
