User questions & answers

Question:	Can I hook this up directly to speakers

Question:	what is the difference between this 2014 version and the other version of the same thats $10 less
Answer:	They only differ in size, Duane. The 2014 version is more compact and handy compared to the previous version.G3A2000ttBOS1: 4 x 4 x 1.1 inches ; 3.2 ounces and G3A2000: 8.2 x 0.8 x 2.7 inches.
Question:	does this work with windows 8 pc
Answer:	If your pc has Bluetooth built into it then yes.
Question:	Does the HD version actually sound better through Coaxial as compared to 3.5mm? Wouldn't Bluetooth degrade the signal anyway
Answer:	Belkin SongStream Bluetooth HD Music Receiver does NOT have aptX codec support. Thus, you will only receive compressed/degraded audio through A2DP's subband codec (sbc) transmission.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does this come with a power supply
Answer:	Yes it does, well at least mine did. I plugged mine into one of the switched outlets on the back of the amplifier so when I turn it on it comes on as well. And it seems to work well.
Question:	Can I plug this into a 220v wall plug
Answer:	NO!!please don’t try and plug into a 220 volt outlet.This is rated 110volts only!
Question:	Will it automatically connect to the last paired device when the power is plugged in
Answer:	Yes, in fact its a little annoying how well it stays connected. If you walk in the house with bluetooth headphones on, or try to use a portable speaker in the back yard, it will take priority over all your other devices. Great range too.
Question:	Must it be plugged into wall socket
Answer:	Yes, the one I received plugs into a regular 110 home wall outlet. There is no USB power adapter included even though some of the older answers said that there was. The plug is however converting from 110 to 5V DC so it may be possible to splice in a USB plug since most USB outlets are putting out 5V. I may actually try that since I need to use it in my car.

User questions & answers

Question:	While playing from a phone, can a different phone connect by clicking the bluetooth pair button on the phone
Answer:	It cannot. I just bought one of these and it's not well designed for use by multiple people. If a phone is paired with the device, there is no way to unpair it while standing at the device. You can only unpair from the phone. Even turning the device off and back on again won't help, because it will just automatically re-pair with the last phone it was connected to. If someone else's phone was previously paired with the device, and they happen to be in the other room, you will have to go ask them in person to unpair before you'll be able to pair.
Question:	what comes in the box
Answer:	In addition to the Bluetooth receiver, to comes with a USB power cord, a 110V plug with a receiver for the aforementioned USP power cord, and then two different cords to for plugging the receiver into speakers or stereo system. One is a headphone type plug for a computer, small portable speakers or an AUX jack in a car or possibly stereo receiver. The other cord splits into red and white plugs so you can attach the device to an stereo receiver or similar component sound system.
Question:	does this have to be turned on every time time i plug it in or does it automatically turn on when there is power. I'm thinking or using it my car
Answer:	you'll have to turn it on. Also it turns off automatically if you don't use it for a while.
Question:	can I use it while charging
Answer:	So, to sum up previous answers: The unit operates directly from the battery. So, the battery will not operate the unit if the battery is dead. When the unit is plugged in to charge the battery, the battery will operate the unit as soon as it has adequate charge, and as long as it has adequate charge, and will continue to operate the unit so long as the battery has adequate charge, regardless of whether the unit is plugged in or not.

A great solution for DTS and Dolby Digital surround sound, Blue Series Digital Optical Audio Cables use superior-grade optical fiber to deliver better clarity and a more natural sound from your digital audio video components.

Digital Optical Audio uses polished optical terminations and optical fiber to transfer digital signals through pulsating light. Fiber is immune to all forms of EM/RF interference, providing superior sonic accuracy and a more detailed, natural sound. Ordinary optical cables can compromise your audio performance by using lower-grade, optical-fiber materials, and hot-plate termination of the fiber, rather than polishing. This can result in signal loss that causes poor clarity, loss of definition, and sound that is not truly accurate. PureAV Blue Series Digital Optical Audio Cables use the highest-quality materials to enhance your digital surround sound experience.
