Terrible Audio Quality
This Belkin Bluetooth receiver degrades the quality of the audio playback to completely unacceptable levels. I recently purchased 3 different models of bluetooth for a project involving recording the audio off a mobile device using bluetooth audio output. I ran each devices audio through a high quality set of reference speakers: Tannoy 8" and a KRK Active Sub. As a test I go and forth between playing music out of the mobile device using a standard 1/8" audio cable, and then switching over to the Belkin Bluetooth device. I was shocked at how terrible the audio sounded via the Belkin Bluetooth device. It completely degraded the quality of the audio output in the following ways: - the low-end was all missing, the sub hardly output anything - the sound sound tinty and mushed, like you compressed your MP3 file down to 64kpbs. - the sound also had an echo to it, like listening to it in a large room. I suggest the Logitech Bluetooth receiver(model 980-000540) over this device by a strong margin.
