Excellent, I was having these same thoughts recently. I too have an expensive HiFi set up doing nothing, and I recently acquired some speaker stands, that look great and my daughter said how do we use these - which led me here! Cheers Joe
You’re welcome! Still got them and they still sound great. Although right now they are in storage as I figure out a few things. If you’re in the market for a pair however… 😉
Hi. Thanks for you question, sorry for the delayed response. Truth be told, I got it from my sister when she moved. I have no idea where she got it however. Sorry!
I'm not an Alexa expert, but I would think that Alexa would have a way to stream music built into it. This is more about streaming music from a service like Spotify on your phone to your home stereo.
@@Joeherman I purchased the same unit under a different name. Not only do you hear a very loud audible beep the digital signal is over compressed and dimes out the bass on the speakers and makes them distort horribly. I had to turn the volume down on my iPad and Android phone by 2/3. I then purchased a cable, tripe C usb to RCA. The sound quality was slightly better but I had the same problem with too much compression. Additionally, while both devices get the job done the fidelity was not great. I have no tone controls with the Bluetooth transponder.After much research I have learned that I need a music streamer with DAC capabilities. I have not had a stereo in 30 years and now that I am back in it’s much more complicated. Most of the streamers out there require you take out a home equity loan. The one I ordered set me back $100. I will let you know how it turns out if you are interested.
i'm old and digital illiterate but this was super easy to follow and just what i was looking for . thanks very much for the info .
Haha! Never too old. My pleasure 🙂
thank you, very educational, that was what I was looking to connect the old but exceptional Yamaha stereo to bluetooth.
You’re welcome! It is very good for that. Cheers!

Thanks Gary, I'm glad you liked it! Hopefully your daughter will be able to stream to it.
Thank you for the review. Don't get rid of your Boston Acoustics speakers. I had a pair back in the late 80's and wish I kept them.
You’re welcome! Still got them and they still sound great. Although right now they are in storage as I figure out a few things. If you’re in the market for a pair however… 😉
Did well. Thank you, Sir.
Very helpful thanks. (4:44 looks like an Output!)
Thanks! I've been listening to it a lot more lately and am really enjoying it. Sounds great coming from a laptop computer!
This was perfect review. 10/10 Great work
Thank you very much! ☺️
Great information! This is EXACTLY what I was looking for!
Glad to hear it! THANK YOU!
Yeah, thanks for the heads up.
Many thanks an excellent video!
Thank you!
My speakers started to pick up a frequency tone that buzzed. Stopped when I got rid of the Bluetooth receiver so now I’m back to square one
Thanks for the help
You're welcome. Cheers!
Thanks! I'm going to buy one. Cheers
I don’t think you’ll be disappointed.
Where did you get your rack for your audio equipment I like how it’s mobile enjoy your video thank you for your help
Hi. Thanks for you question, sorry for the delayed response. Truth be told, I got it from my sister when she moved. I have no idea where she got it however. Sorry!
So sir how does this way of streaming sound compared to your vinyals or even the cds
Can I connect my stereo L/R speakers directly to the converter ?
Yes, but only if they are powered speakers. Otherwise you need an amplifier.
@@Joeherman thank you for response, appreciated
No video out
Bluetooth versiyon?
does this work with Alexa?
I'm not an Alexa expert, but I would think that Alexa would have a way to stream music built into it. This is more about streaming music from a service like Spotify on your phone to your home stereo.
Can the logitec work with a bluetooth mp4 player?
I believe so
Will CZcams music work on this?
Yes. Yes it will.
@@Joeherman thank you for the quick response.
I bought mine for $1.00
How??
I just purchased this device for my stereo and it sucked. You need a DAC to convert the music. I would not recommend this product.
don't know what you mean. Could you explain that further? Do you mean you needed a DAC to work with this product? Why? What didn't you like about it?
