" ... This works for music with my iPhone and Accord perfectly. ... "
" ... My devices connect quickly and the connection remains stable. ... "
" ... Most times it automatically syncs with my phone when I start the car so I can just press play for my music on my phone and go. ... I gave it 4 stars because there have been quite a few times that it does not sync when I start the car and I've had to unplug and then re-plug it to get it to connect. ... Once synced, the connection is good and the music quality is excellent. ... "
" ... Such a nice quality receiver that does all the necessary things a Bluetooth receiver needs to do. ... "
" ... This is ideal for a car set up where the original stereo has auxiliary input. ... "
" ... The TP-Link connects my Echo to my old stereo receiver using the CD connection. ... And it's a lot better than spending $350-$650 for a new Alexa-compatible receiver! ... "
" ... Hi got this for my older style amp to hook up to a input to play music from my phone works great. ... "

" ... Works good up to about 25 feet away from unit. ... "
" ... I was able to get a great connection from well past the advertised distance. ... "
" ... The range isn't great throughout the house, but when I am in the room is connects easily. ... "
" ... Covers my entire large basement, even through a cinderblock wall probably at least 45 feet from receiver. ... "
" ... Seems to work good, range is between 30-50ft. ... "
" ... The distance is also very good, I've wandered roughly 20-30ft away from the receiver and it still played clearly. ... "
" ... This receiver couldn't consistently stay connected from 10-15 feet - same room, no obstructions, no other wifi/bluetooth devices in between source and receiver. ... Max range with echo dot was about 15 feet with clear line of sight, but if someone merely walked through the room in between source and receiver it would cut out and sometimes disconnect. ... "

" ... Works great with my pixel 2, and is powered via USB. ... "
" ... In my 2002 Lexus IS300 I used an adapter cable that comes with a USB port, so it was as simple as plugging the two cables of the adapter into the Bluetooth receiver, pair the device and now my phone connects automatically when I start the car. ... "
" ... The power cable goes to the back of the receiver, so when I turn on the receiver it automatically is available via TP-Link's bluetooth to the Echo and Alexa (unless I've changed the source since last using it). ... "
" ... One cable goes to the AUX port, the other goes to a dual USB charger. ... "

" ... Operation (this is the only tricky part because I have to say the commands in specific order to have it play through stereo) ... Options: Once the music starts playing, Alexa knows the stereo is on and allows me to turn volume up or down or mute music, as well as allows me to change music or stop altogether. ... "
" ... The best part of listening to music is that volume control is ramped up or down via the Echo Dot, even using bluetooth. ... This is key, since I set a maximum volume on the amplifier. ... So a command like "Alexa, volume 10" is max, "Alexa, volume 3" is perfect for background music, etc. ... "
" ... You can do a lot more, but those are the basic commands and operation. ... "
" ... Great for projects as you don't push any buttons to connect, just turn on the power feeding the 5 volt USB and you're on and ready to connect. ... "
