Bluetooth Audio Adapter for Bluetooth Streaming

Originally purchased in 2017 so this review is extremely overdue. Last house had a huge deck and I had some outdoor speakers and an aging audio receiver sitting around. I made a weatherproof box for the receiver, hooked up the speakers but didn't have a way to get audio to it except to use RCA cables and plug directly into a phone/iPad/iPod, etc. Bought this, connected it via RCA to the receiver and started pairing devices. The first winter I was a good homeowner and put my toys away. After that I stopped taking care of things and left the deck box out year-round. Essentially, this Bluetooth adapter has been sitting outside in a weatherproof deck box since 2018. Fast forward seven (7) years and I don't have a need for it outside anymore but I do have a need indoors. It for sure hasn't been used since 2023. Today I connected it to my computer speakers, plugged it in and heard the familiar power noise. Connected my phone, which has never been used with it, and it works just as good as it always has. Long story, I've had this thing for about eight (8) years, had zero issues, and it still works amazing. It isn't a complicated device. RCA cords or a 3.5mm cable out to your speakers/receiver, push the button on top, and connect your Bluetooth device. You know how the rest works after that. I can't speak on durability if it were to be dropped or get wet but I can say that I haven't been disappointed with it in all the time I've owned it. Sound quality is good. Bluetooth has a good range on it.

The unit was easy to set up. Following the enclosed instructions, I simply plugged it in to a power outlet, attached it to the 3.5 mm auxiliary port of my Bose Wave Radio, and identified and paired it immediately with my Kindle HDX. To test out the quality and range of the Bluetooth signal, I began listening to an Audible audio book, then switched to Prime Music. Later, I listened to some of my favorite radio shows on Tune-In. No drop-outs. No hiss. No static. Everything was clear and perfect. I highly recommend this product. In addition to trying the Logitech Bluetooth Audio Adapter with my Bose radio, I also plugged the Logitech into a set of powered Yamaha speakers plus sub-woofer (Model YST-MS50, manufactured in 1998) that I had stored in the basement and had not used for about 10 years. As stated on the box, the Logitech will work directly with powered speakers as long as the speakers have a 3.5 mm auxiliary input. No need to hook them up to a PC or tuner. Imagine my amazement when beautiful, full sound from some music on my Kindle passed through the Logitech Bluetooth and emerged from these old Yamaha speakers. Believe me, I had given up on these speakers! I also discovered the Logitech Bluetooth Audio Adapter has good, solid range-- definitely in excess of 30 feet. To see about the signal strength, I tested the Bluetooth Adapter in an old Queen Anne style house, built around 1910, with thick plaster and lathe walls, leaded glass windows, and thick doors that inhibit Bluetooth signals. The signal from other Bluetooth devices that I own (from Belkin and Monoprice, which are otherwise good units) barely reaches 18 feet from the third floor to the second in this house. With the Logitech Bluetooth Adapter, no signal problem! As a test, I set up my Kindle HDX on my desk on the third floor, playing an Audible Book and broadcasting through Bluetooth. I got a clear Bluetooth signal through my Bose radio, downstairs at 32 feet away. I want to emphasize that it was not "line of sight." The radio was down the stairs, through the second floor hallway, and all the way through two closed doors to the front of the house and into another room!

Conclusion: If you already have a perfectly fine sounding stereo or set of computer speakers, don’t go out and buy a whole new receiver, or a giant, underwhelming Bluetooth speaker, or a dock that will be useless once Apple changes their charging standard again. Get this little adapter (on sale, especially, it’s a great buy – I got it for $25) and cheaply bring your old speakers into the present. Long version: I've gotten used to using Bluetooth everywhere, now. I use it on my Block Rocker at picnics, on a speaker in the bathroom, in the car, in my ear muffs, and now, finally, in my living room. So often in order to greatly improve our technology experience and bring it into this age, we have to replace things. Not so with this little puppy. I have a 5.1 Logitech speaker system that I bought probably 9 years ago that I’d still been using in the living room by plugging it into a computer or phone or iPad when I wanted to play Spotify. But of course, that means you can’t use the same object to do other things. Now my living room music listening experience has entered 2015 merely by acquiring a little black box (with a pleasant blue glow). It can even pair two devices at once, so my roommate and I can each pair our phones to it and not have to keep switching. The sound quality is great, range is pretty good (at least 20 feet), and it has yet to drop connection to a device. Speakers last a long time, and aren’t improving at the rate of other technologies. You neither need to ditch perfectly good speakers just because they don't do what all your other gadgets do, nor do you need to keep running cords to your iPad or laptop just to play music in the living room. Get a cheap Bluetooth adapter and use your old speakers to their full potential.

Arrived on time. Present for hubby he likes it a lot.

En lo personal es un muy buen producto. A primera impresión se ve bastante bien, buena calidad, pequeño. - Cumple perfectamente su funcionamiento con lo del bluetooth. - Gran calidad de audio, claro no es lo mismo que conectar tu dispositivo directamente con cable, pero supero mis expectativas. - Tiene buen alcance, claro excepto cuando cruzas algún muro el alcance disminuye pero aun así suena bastante bien. - Emparejar cualquier dispositivo con el adaptador es super fácil y no tienes que estar conectando cada vez que lo prendes, a menos que uses varias aparatos con bluetooth si lo tendrás que conectar cada vez que lo usas. EN GENERAL ES UN PRODUCTO BASTANTE BUENO Y SOBRE TODO EL PRECIO CONVIENE BASTANTE!!!

This works perfectly for me. Almost to good. Distance -- it is blue tooth and I think that I've had other devices that have a longer range, but honestly i think it hits the rated distance fine. Sound quality -- it sounds fine and is very stable. That said, we don't use this to rock the house, but believe I'm also fairly discriminating, so if it sounded bad, I would notice it. East of use -- super easy to connect, just press the button. Stability -- I purchased this because Air Play would loose the signal regularly. I don't think this is so much Air Play's fault as I've got lots of wireless networks around me. But either way, Air Play was a bit of a pain Connection -- this is the only "down" side. When the device is on, my phone always automatically connects. On one hand, this is perfect when I'm listening to music. But when I'm not, it connects anyway and all my phone noises then go through the stereo. So I have to unplug and plug in to turn it off (I don't want to turn off BT on my phone) I have had this for quite some before writing the review.

This is the best quality bluetooth adapter available in the market by Logitech. I used his to connect my old Altech lancing speakers to play music wirelessly.connects to any bluetooth device upto a distance of 30 mts. Pros 1 . Pairs seamlessly 2 . The bluetooth range is very good. Cons . None
