Logitech Wireless Bluetooth Audio Receiver, Bluetooth Adapter for PC/Mac/Smartphone/Tablet/AV Receiver, 3.5mm Audio and RCA Outputs to Speakers, One-Push Pairing Button, UK Plug - Black/Blue

I got this after seeing it used on Techmoan's channel on Youtube (good channel BTW). I was watching this guy reviewing vintage hi-fis. For some time now I have been listening to music through my Mac, iPad and a little stereo DAB/FM radio - but I missed the sound quality of my old analog Teac (a-h500) amp and Tannoy Mercury speakers. The set-up was pretty simple, just connected up to the Auxiliary (aux) ports on the back of my amp, plugged it into power source (came with a plug) , switched on (press the top of the Logitech). First device was my iPad - Logitec came up on bluetooth devices. Watching music videos only iPad while listening through my old amp and speakers was almost a religious experience! Wow! The depth and richness of sound I had been missing for so long. I have bought another amp for my lounge and set the Logitec up with my iMac playing through another TEAC (a-h300) amp I bought since getting the Logitec Bluetooth receiver/audio adapter. It is incredible listening after being so used to the iMac's capable but comparatively small speakers. Rock,Reggae,Soul, Classical and Jazz - I am hearing them as they should be heard, picking up some tiny notes and subtleties that are just missing when listening through computer speakers. I can search digital radio channels on my Apple devices and play them through my hi-fi using this device too. All-in-all, a great little device for the money - worth every penny. One thing though. The Logitec needs to be in "line of sight" with your device. They claim 17 feet, and that seems right - I took my iPad to the bathroom so I could play music videos through my hi-fi while having a bath -it went a bit fuzzy, but that was through two open doors and not indirect line of sight, but I was stretching the limits - two partition walls and doors opens not in direct sight. Great device. I recommend this product to anyone wanting to go retro and listen to music how it should sound - through a real hi-fi amp and speakers.

This is one of the best purchases I’ve made in a while, and I can’t believe I ever lived without it! This little device took less then 2 minutes to set up. All you do is plug in the power (UK plug supplied), and plug in your speakers to the 3.5mm port at the back. For older audio systems, there are RCA connectors located on the back. Logitech were nice enough to include an RCA to 3.5mm extension cable as well! When you power the device on, it is already in pairing mode and you can set it up with your phone/tablet etc. straight away. A great feature about this little box is that it has multipoint Bluetooth. This means that you can connect a couple of devices at once and it will play the audio from whatever device is playing. I have set it up to my phone and Mac. No need to disconnect and reconnect! Pairing a secondary device is done by pushing the button on top. When Bluetooth devices are out of range, the device goes in to a low power state. No annoying flashing lights or beeps! The Bluetooth version is 3.0 (not mentioned anywhere on packaging, but did my research). It’s a little outdated, but doesn’t impact performance or sound quality. What this means is that the range is limited to 15 meters. Ideally, you need to keep the device within your line of sight. This is just fine for most audio setups. The receiver has a small form factor and sits well amongst my HK speakers and Mac. Audio quality is pretty decent and I haven’t noticed much difference in the quality versus a wired connection. I have used other receivers on the market and they have emitted a static or ticking sound when there is no audio playing. I did not have that problem with this Logitech device. Overall, great performance and value for money. You won’t be disappointed!

It takes just a moment to add bluetooth connectivity to an old hi-fi system with this little Logitech box. I connected it up to the AV/Aux ports on the system's amp, plugged it into power, turned it on, pressed the pairing button and straightaway the Logitech adaptor showed up in the bluetooth settings on my iPad. It's that easy. My old hi-fi is still great for hi-end sound quality, and now I can stream music from anywhere to play through the speakers. I had hoped that I might also be able to use it when watching movies, but - as I'd read in some reviews before - it doesn't quite work. The lip sync is a milli-second out, just enough to make actor close ups unwatchable. Still, for audio, the Logitech is perfect. And if your streaming source is in the same room, you can even hide the box out of sight so you either don't see it at all, or just add a soft blue glow to the room.

Thought it worth adding my name to those already full of praise for this little bluetooth marvel. I integrated this into my Audio Innovations hifi stand very easily, unit + RCA cables + power sitting invisibly behind my amp due to its diminutive size. Setting into broadcast mode (to connect a new device) is a simple process of reaching behind the amp and pressing the tactile button on top of receiver - easy!!! My hifi rig is a Cambridge Audio 640A connected to Mordant Short speakers and sub. I've fed the adapter everything I have (Apple Lossless / MP3) and am very pleased with the quality, its superb. Streaming audio is just as good. Aside from the audio quality, there are 2 very pleasing / unexpected aspects to the receiver: a) Volume. No issues at all in my case easily the best receiver I've used requiring the least boost. b) Video sync. You Tube et al, video and audio sync perfectly. Has opened up all sorts of viewing pleasure whilst iPad is sitting on top of hi fi. Logitech produce well engineered, robust products these days. This adapter is yet another in the category. At the price, this product has brought my hifi (which I invested a right few quid in) bang up-to-date in terms of capability. A superb buy, well done Logitech.

Ich habe gleich zwei davon und sie werden regelmäßig verwendet. Dabei funktionieren sie wirklich zuverlässig sowohl an einer klassischen Hifi-Anlage wie auch an aktiven Logitech-Boxen. In der Regel werden damit Spotify Musik und Podcasts gestreamt. Ich habe nichts auszusetzen. Keine Unterbrechungen in akustisch sinnvoller Reichweite und das Klangbild ist absolut entsprechend dem, was die Klangeneratoren hinter dem Empfänger so können. Nett ist auch, dass bei Bluetooth die Medienwiedergabe unterstützt wird, nicht aber die Headset-Funktion. Dass heißt: Wenn das Telefon klingelt, dann wird das Gespräch nicht auf die Hifi-Anlage weiter geleitet, sondern bleibt beim Handy. Danke - ihr habt mit gedacht! Im Bluetooth-Menü kann der Empfänger einfach ein- und ausgeschaltet werden, ohne dass man jedes mal neu koppeln muss. Das Gerät kann also nach dem Koppel getrost hinter dem Schrank verschwinden und ist einfach nur da, wenn man es braucht. Wirklich gut! Nur ein Tip noch: Hier wird gelegentlich auch das selbe Gerät mit UK-Steckernetzteil verkauft. Warum in den Suchergebnissen immer auch solche Graupen dabei sind? Ich weiß es doch auch nicht.

Attention adaptateur secteur sur prise anglaise sinon super produit

I wanted to connect my Apple TV to my old Bose system and it connected via Bluetooth flawlessly.
