While I wondered what this object could serve initially, we must recognize that this Bluetooth audio receiver is insanely convenient. After receiving power and connected to your stereo via a jack (2 cords supplied), it becomes capable of being connected to any Bluetooth music source (smartphone, tablet ...). I spent my time to connect my phone to my chain via a long cable jack type to broadcast my music, now need most: I turn on Bluetooth when I got home and I can control my playlist remotely using my smartphone. Really convenient. The receiver itself is of good quality, compact, discreet (if not a blue light may be a little too visible). No problem to pair bluetooth to my smartphone. Small bonus, the USB port can charge a device. Only drawback, already mentioned in other reviews: the little "snap" that is heard in the chain whenever the receiver is paired to the smartphone. It's not really violent either, but it would point to improve technically.
