The name "Bluetooth" is actually very old. It is from the 10th century Danish King Harald Blåtand - or Harold Bluetooth in English. King Blåtand was instrumental in uniting warring factions in parts of what is now Norway, Sweden and Denmark - just as Bluetooth technology is designed to allow collaboration between different business sectors such as the computing, mobile phones and automotive industries.  -From the Fast Facts page at Bluetooth.com Features:Connects directly to your Onkyo Network A/V Receiver via USBBluetooth version 3.0 capability (Compatible Profile: A2DP 1.2) Pair your iPad®, iPhone®, iPod touch®, tablet PC, and cellphone with your Onkyo A/V receiverFeatures CSR's aptX™ compression enhancement for top quality soundAuto Power-On and Direct Input Change function while on Hybrid Standby statusSupports AAC FormatCompatible with 2012 Series Onkyo Network A/V Receivers (TX-NR414 and higher)  © 2011 Onkyo USA Corporation.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: does this require your receiver to be on a network? or can you stream bluetooth from phone without the network**
A: If you have this then you don't need a network to stream from your phone.

**Q: Can I use this to pair my Onkyo receiver to bluetooth headphones and stream the audio from movies to the headphones? I want to keep it quiet at night**
A: It appears to me (though I haven't tried that), that it is a receiver only. It transmits a signal read by other devices. So I would say no..it does not. There is however a jack/port to plug a wired headset on the receiver though I know that's not what your looking for. I hope this was helpful...

**Q: will any bluetooth adaptor work?  does it have to be the UBT-1?**
A: Only the UBT-1 will work. It was simple to set up also.

**Q: Hello i have a tx-nr1008 someone know if is compatible with the ubt-1 blutooth adapter?**
A: It worked with the 5000 seriesi suspect it'll work with all of them

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ UBT-1 installed on TX-NR414
*by K***L on November 30, 2012*

Works terrific. I had to update the firmware on my ONYKO TX-NR414 first (because I bought it when it first came out early 2012 and there have been 3 or so firmware upgrades since - one of them to recognize the UBT-1 device.) (Follow the update firmware procedure in the on-line user manual for the TX-NR414. Make sure you copy all files/folders from the ZIP file onto an empty USB stick (do not copy the zip file). When update says 'completed' - use the power off button on the receiver, and make sure you had all the files on the memory stick. Update took < 10 minutes.)You'll know it's working when you pair because TX-NR414 window will recognizee the UBT-1 and display "UBT-1" in window.I'm able to play music files, Pandora, radio stations, that are on my iphone-4. Played for an hour and never lost connection. Sounds great.I don't have the TX-NR414 on my home network.I have an iphone-5 that I haven't tried, and have the ipone-4 set up to just use wirelessly (since the data contract was moved from the 4 to the 5). So - I'm using the iphone-4 as though its an ipod. And using the iphone-4 costs me nothing with carrier since I just use it wirelessly and without phone - no 3/4G network connection needed!)

### ⭐ Receiver stops recognizing UBT-1 as a bluetooth dongle
*by B***T on January 3, 2015*

At first this worked great. I plugged it in, my phone recognized it and the range was great (using the front USB). I could connect from one floor up and stream music seamlessly. The only issue I had was that any time I turned my phone on to check email/text, it would steal control of my receiver by moving the input to USB from my TV that I was watching. To get around this, I would have to unplug the USB dongle every time I wasn't using it. This wasn't too bad of an issue until I updated the firmware on my Onkyo TX-NR525. I think something with that firmware update corrupted how the drivers are recognized. Ever since the update, when I unplug the dongle, the receiver fails to recognize it when I plug it back in. The only way to restore it to a working state is to clear the whole receiver (hold down "TV/SAT" and hit the Power button). The problem with this is it resets the speaker calibration for my room. To make matters worse, I've called Onkyo's 24x7 support line 4 times and am yet to get through or get a callback from them. Pretty disappointed. I love the stereo receiver and the sound is amazing through my speaker system, but the compatibility/reliability of this accessory is terrible.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ No Luck with HT-S9400THX
*by V***B on August 7, 2012*

I was very excited about this product simply for the fact that I could stream music from my cell phone through my home theater system. I was not 100% sure that my receiver would work (HT-R990) being that I purchased the HT-S9400THX HTIB and thought that I might get lucky. The product description says it will work with all 2012 network receivers, and technically mine was released in late 2011. I was able to successfully pair my cell phone to the BT adapter but to my dismay I was getting no audio out of my speakers. I stream from my cell phone into my car stereo using bluetooth, so I am sure all the settings were correct.I am sure this is a great product for those who have a compatible receiver. I had to send mine back since I could not get it to work with my receiver.
