Reviews
"Your music will be a little quieter and not as bassy as it is when you use an auxiliary cable to connect directly to your device. Even so, this device is an ideal solution for the target demographic - folks that just want to eliminate that auxiliary cord and stream audio to their radio via bluetooth without breaking the bank. Update 12/29/2014: I had previously rated this as a 4-star device - because of the loss of audio volume/fidelity...but after an 8 hour road trip and the device lasting the ENTIRE trip and then some...I'm bumping my rating up to 5-stars."
"You'll need to power it off or disconnect bluetooth when you leave vehicle or you'll miss calls or continue streaming media. I might add this, for I found audibility as an issue in a different review; The sound is LOUDER than using an auxiliary cord or just listening to the radio! Just make sure you long press (hold the + button) the volume all the way up until it beeps, then turn your device all the way up and adjust as needed with your radio controls."
"I am ALWAYS listening to music in my car (I have a 2008 chevy) and have always used an auxiliary cord to connect my phone (iPhone 6plus) to my stereo. Turned on the Bluetooth option on my iPhone 6plus held the multifunction button down for 3 seconds and selected MPOW under my Bluetooth settings in my phone and plugged the little guy in!"
"My audiophile friends told me it was a stupid idea to buy this to make my Audio-Technica m50x headphones wireless."

"Too long, I have been hearing my wife telling me to turn the volume of the TV down. I have been needed an avenue so that I can still enjoy my show and not be a nuisance to her or disturb her beauty sleep. The other day, I was in our living room working and my son wanted to play his X-Box."
"I bought this to interface with my Samsung Non SmartTV only to find that the Civic has limited support for audio bluetooth to smartphones. Being able to transmit to two devices makes me want to get a second pair of bluetooth headphones so my girlfriend and I can listen at the same time."
"When you use them to receive or transmit audio from a movie, any perceived latency is a problem. Not a big factor but there is a rubberize bottom to it so when placing it on a surface (like my dash) it stays put."
"I bought this to feed the audio output from my computer sound to my GRDE bluetooth horseshoe headset at work."

Best Home Audio Sound Bars

Sonos PLAYBAR TV Soundbar/ Wireless Streaming TV and Music Speaker. Works with Alexa.
It is also a stand–alone all–in–one Sonos player that allows you to wirelessly stream all the music on earth—your iTunes library, your favorite music services, and thousands of Internet radio stations, shows and podcasts.PLAYBAR connects to your TV using a single optical cable and power cord and plays everything that is connected to your TV, from cable boxes to gaming consoles. Syncs wirelessly with other Sonos speakers so you can listen to TV or music in perfect sync, throughout your home. Control from your existing TV remote, or wirelessly connect on the Sonos app from your smart device.
Reviews
"I have Playbar hooked up through an optical cable to my Sharp Aquos and the remote control for Xfinity TV. The remote for the cable box easily adjusts the volume for Sonos so if you are worried about that, you don't have to be."
"It's a nice product and looks great while being easy to operate (although more reliant on the Sonos application than I'd prefer). When testing the Playbar with a direct connection to a device (e.g. Apple TV) and running it compared to my 5 speaker system through my receiver I was impressed with the quality. Great idea - but the problem is that most TV's won't pass Dolby Digital (DD) 5.1 surround from HDMI to the digital/optical audio. Alternatively you can use an optical audio switch, which is fine most of the time but may not work with a blu-ray player since Playbar lacks DTS support and are also limited on inputs, but this doesn't solve what to do for certain devices that don't have an optical audio port (e.g. most computers, Wii U, etc). Pros: ++Easy set up. ++Sonos. +Decent sound from stereo source. Cons: ---Single optical input only. --No DTS support. --Entire package is expensive for 5.1 (or even 3.1). The only scenario I can see this being a good thing is if you have a room where you want to add a Sonos component and a soundbar to and you want to do it in a single package without caring about other components, like for a Den or a bedroom. But the reliance on a single optical input being provided from the TV, one which will down convert any HDMI source's audio to stereo sound, in the name of simplicity just seems like a bad idea. Sonos says they elected to omit this on the Playbase (the related product to this) because so few things used it and they wanted to focus on streaming but the issue is this limits user choice. They have their very specific viewpoint of how people should use this product and with what (5.1 over optical in DD, steaming services) and that options aren't needed. I'm not saying there's no market for this or it's terrible - if you have a TV that passes 5.1 and you don't care about DTS and Dolby Atmos it's a fine product and exactly the scenario that Sonos has in mind."
"You can’t see what the current volume level is unless you look at the slow/generally bad Sonos app, and you don’t realize how important that isn’t until it’s missing. If you’re spending >$1k for a home theater surround system, you shouldn’t have to deal with lip sync issues. Of course, there’s also the Sonos ecosystem problems, but if you’re looking at this speaker you’re probably already familiar with those limitations (e.g. no Bluetooth, no line-in, no audible support, slow app updates, etc."

"From outstanding highs and mids with descent bass to loud and clear sound, this speaker blows the competitors out of the water! And I also bought a Speaker Case DOSS Speaker Case, UtechSmart Premium PU Leather Shockproof Waterproof Carrying EVA Case Cover Storage Pouch Bag for DOSS Bluetooth Speaker to protect it well."
"Even with a 50 HP motor directly behind me I can still hear it over my 4 stroke yamaha engine. I can load up many of my favorite artists on a 16 GB micro sd card and I don't have to drain my phone using bluetooth. I like to stream Pandora but in the boat there are times I lose the cell signal. The micro SD card solves this issue and actually sounds better than bluetooth.Finally, yesterday after a day on the water i mistakenly left the speaker in my boat while I hosed it down."

Reviews
"This is my first "real" 5.1 speaker system (having upgraded from a HTIB), so I don't have a lot to compare them to, but to me they sound great.."
"Solid,Heavy construction, great sound, wicked bass.....except for that danged bright blue light .... guys you gotta install an on/off switch for that thing ...."
"They are pretty good speakers, not great but offers a good home theater sound. The only speaker that I really feel doesn't give off enough sound, is probably the center speaker."
"As such, dialog is often difficult to understand even if the volume is loud enough.The center channel produces such clear voice that I understand even the whispers. I've wanted a Bose Acoustimass for a number of years and had the money to buy them, but decided to listen to all of the major reviews online.I bought the Energy Take Classics on a gamble. I also bought a Sony DH540 receiver and a Sony S5100 BluRay player."
"One last thing, 14 gauge speaker is about the max size speaker wire these will take and I'd also suggest using open spade lug crimp connectors as threading bare speaker through the binding post holes is a massive PITA."
"I decided to purchase this system because I just can't buy into the overpriced hype any more. When I heard these speakers I just laughed to my self because they sounded better then speakers thousand of dollars more. Amazon also did a great job at getting me the package without any issues."
