My work vehicle, a 2013 Ford Expedition, stopped being recognized by my phone via bluetooth several months ago after the phone updated. Gone was the ability to use the phone hands free and being able to listen to music streamed through the phone on the vehicle stereo.My search for a solution led me to this great little product. It met my requirements perfectly.It turns on and off with the vehicle, my phone automatically connects to it via bluetooth upon vehicle start, and music streaming is possible again.Installation was simple. Just plug into the vegicle auxiliary jack, and for power, there is a usb jack, which can be plugged into the cigarette lighter, using the supplied adapter. Since my vehicle had the auxiliary and usb jacks in the console, it was an easy task to plug them in and then tuck the wire in to mount the unit onto the dash. The usb wire is a little shorter, than the auxiliary wire, but in my case, it was just long enough. The sound on calls seems to be good, since no one has had any issues with the sound quality.The grounding adapter removed any hiss that occurred, without it, there was some static.I'm very pleased with the purchase, a local car stereo oufitter had given me an estimate of a bit over $400 to achieve the same thing.

ممتاز جدا الجهاز تركيبه سهل ونقاوة الصوت جيده جدا يستاهل الاقتناء الصدق

Absolutely amazing bit of kit. Fitted in a 2006 Mazda 3 with Auxillary cable. Can play Spotify flawlessly with no interference. Make and receive calls with clear voice through the speakers. Person on the other end states they can hear perfectly.Pair with a wireless charging MagSafe cradle and you don't need to upgrade your old head unit!

I think this is the perfect solution for installing Bluetooth on a car that doesn't have it, as long as you don't mind the wired connections of the receiver.My favorite thing: it disconnects and turns off automatically when the car is turned off! Other devices I tried before remain on when you turn off the car, which would cause my phone to remain connected even when in my house due to the large range, and would often connect without warning while in my house without my knowing and was a general nuisance. Also not sure about battery drain on the car if the car sat a long period of time. This device fixes those problems!Other positives:-long cables that facilitate any car setup you need, allowing me to use power from my rear power outlet and leaving the front seat outlet available.-The grounding device ensures there isn't any annoying static hissing noise through the speakers when it's not playing audio.-Mic works fine for calls and people have reported they can hear me fine while I'm driving. The connection is also quick and my phone automatically pairs with it when I start the car, unlike other devices I've tried that promised immediately connection but required a manual connection almost every time.-I'm a big music guy, not a full audiophile, but I can't detect any loss of quality compared to other Bluetooth connections.-buttons work well. Sticker mount included so you can stick the control device wherever you need.Only negative may be that the extra grounding dongle and excess cable length may be an issue if you are working with a very small space. It also requires cable connections, and I believe it also requires a constant power source. You may prefer the clean look of a dongle that plugs directly in the aux port and would need to be charged occasionally. I want to just be able to hop in the car and start playing, which this does perfectly, I never have to worry about the charging and I've hidden the excess cable.I had to scroll through several "top rated" or "best selling" devices to find this one, but I genuinely think it's way better than the other options on Amazon and it's well worth the extra ten bucks or so. It's completely transparent in how it operates, and it's as if the car just came from the factory with Bluetooth.

I've been trying to find a Bluetooth solution for our 2008 Avalon for a while now. Tried FM transmitters and iPhone lightning/headphone splitter cables but nothing really worked well and sounded great....until now. I love this hands-free kit. The included ground loop filter is fantastic and works as advertised. The control puck is small and inobtrusive. There's no glaring blue lights like a lot of Bluetooth devices seem to insist on (I know you're working. I don't need to be blinded while you're on!). The pairing is drop dead simple as the device is instantly in pairing mode if a connected phone isn't nearby and the power comes on. The kit works best in cars that disconnect the power when you turn them off. I used this in my Pontiac and had to unplug it after parking and plug it back in when driving again to take advantage of all the features but in our Avalon the kit disconnects when the car is shut off and reconnects when we start it up again like a built-in system does. The only downside (and it's a small one) is that my wife like to listen to an AM news station and if a call comes in she has to switch to the AUX input in order to answer the phone. It's not a deal breaker but it is a reality if your audio source is going to regularly be something other than your phone. To that point, the call and music audio quality is as good as I've ever heard from a Bluetooth connection. Rock solid for music with a nice sound stage and no noise and calls are crystal clear using an iPhone 7 with the latest iOS update. I've both made and received calls from this kit and they both sound great. This is a great car kit and an exceptional value if you don't want to replace your head unit with a new one for Bluetooth calls and audio streaming through your car speakers.

Inizio col dire che ho comprato questo kit (quello con filtro antidisturbi) mentre ne stavo già utilizzando 2 diversi (uno logitech uno philips) i quali però non supportavano il protocollo per la chiamata vocale, quindi SOLO streaming della musica via bluetooth.Devo parlare benissimo di questo prodotto, non mi aspettavo di rimanere cosi sorpreso.Cosa di arriva:- Ricevitore con basetta adesiva 3m magnetica- Filtro anti-disturbi (se avete disturbi causati dall'impianto elettrico della macchina ve li elimina)- caricatore da auto accendisigari con 2 porte usb, una da 2A e l'altra da 1A.Cosa vi permette di fare:- Chiamate vocali da sentire direttamente dall'impianto dell'auto e la vostra voce verrà captata dal microfono incorporato (al centro del ricevitore)- Streaming di qualsiasi flusso audio dal vostro telefono (canzoni, chiamate vocali, video su facebook/youtube/messaggi vocali whatsapp ecc)- Controllo tramite i pulsanti presenti sul ricevitoreImpressioni:- Non ho avuto bisogno di utilzzare il filtro, la qualità è molto buona alla pari con gli altri ricevitori in mio possesso philips e logitech.- Una volta acceso è MOLTO più veloce degli altri 2 ricevitori a collegarsi al mio telefono, quasi istantaneo- I comandi che ha con i propri bottoni sono FANTASTICI, vi descrivo cosa permettono di fare: - Play/Pausa - Canzone avanti / Canzone indietro - Rispondi / aggancia chiamata - Se tenete premuto il tasto canzone avanti, si aprirà dal vostro telefono l'assistenza vocale (google now per android, varia in base al vostro telefono)Conclusioni:Consigliato assolutamente, lo utilizzo tutti i giorni da ormai 2 settimane e sono soddisfattissimo. Il prezzo è eccezionale, costano molto di piu i vari logitech/philips (che possiedo) e non supportano ne le chiamate vocali, ne hanno i bottoni per il controllo, ne il filtro antidisturbo NE il caricatore da auto.Fate voi i vostri conti.

Con este dispositivo he conseguido que la radio de mi coche tenga capacidad bluetooth. Por el precio que tiene es una solución muy recomendable. Las características/ventajas que proporciona son:- Emparejamiento sencillo. Una vez realizado, al dar el contacto se establece la conexión con el móvil. Caso de que no suceda, basta con pulsar la tecla multifunción (la del icono del teléfono) y se establece inmediatamente. El emparejamiento se evidencia por un sonido que emite y por el led azul del panel- Dispositivo de pequeño tamaño que puede colocarse en el lugar que nos sea más cómodo, aunque en el manual se recomiendan una serie de ubicaciones para optimizar la recepción del micro.- Uno de los usos es la reproducción de música, podcasts, etc. desde el móvil, escuchándose por los altavoces del coche. Ya podemos escuchar Spotify en nuestro coche sin problemas y con buena calidad- Permite su uso como manos libres al disponer de un micrófono. La llamada se escucha igualmente por los altavoces del coche. Las pruebas que he hecho son satisfactorias pudiendo oir bien al que llama y siendo escuchado sin problemas- Los botones del panel de control permiten descolgar la llamada, enmudecer el micrófono, rellamar e incluso activar el asistente de voz, ya sea Siri en los teléfonos de Apple como Google Now en los Android. Yo he probado el Google Now y le puedo dar instrucciones como "llama a casa" o "ir a casa" y funciona. También permiten cambiar de canciónComo inconveniente destacaría que es muy recomendable adquirir el equipo con el filtro de ruido. Yo lo he comprado sin él y se produce un leve sonido agudo que puede llegar a resultar molesto. Dependerá de cada coche. El filtro está pensado para suprimir ese ruido. Puede adquirirse aparte y es sencillísima su instalación (basta con intercalarlo en la salida jack hacia la toma auxiliar de la radio)En resumen: producto muy recomendable, a muy buen precio y que cumple con todas las espectativas

WOW! Ok, rarely have I ordered a product that was exactly what the manufacturer and reviewers said it was and did everything exactly as I had hoped with no setup problems or installation issues. This is one of those rare items (a tool really) that is everything I hoped it would be. When I received it today, I checked all the parts out, played around with the location I wanted to mount the BK01 in my car and then paired it to both of my cell phones. The sound I heard through my car speakers using Pandora and Amazon Music was INCREDIBLE. Much better than when I was using an aux-in audio able to listen to my music through my phone...and MUCH LOUDER. In fact, with my phone at full volume, I found that a low volume setting on my car stereo was the "right" volume level for my ears. Of course, if I wanted to rock it out, there was plenty of volume left for that. The controls on the BK01 worked as advertised which will come in handy. No more having to reach for my phone, unlock it and then use the touch controls on my Galaxy S7 to pause or stop my streaming music. The best part was that by using my BT settings on my phone for the BK01 connection, I set it to only transmit music from my phone, not my phone calls. My phone is capable of pairing to two devices at the same time. So, it's still connected to my car's BT, which enables me to use my car for phone calls and the BK01 for streaming music. This still allows me to use my phone book, which is stored in my vehicle for making voice-activated calls. For those wondering, when I receive or make a phone call, the BK01 pauses my music until the call is over and then automatically resumes my music. The only problem I found was that I must turn my car volume up when making BT calls via my car so I can hear the person on the other end. When the music resumes, it is way too loud. This is no fault of the BK01, it's just a matter of knowing how the two systems operate and getting accustomed to turning the car volume back down after the phone call ends. Regarding installation, take some time to work out how you are going to lay out the wires from your mounting location (typically on the dashboard) and your lighter (or USB port if you have one) and your audio in jack. I was able to route the wires under my center console except for a short run up from the bottom of the console into my center console compartment where my audio jack and aux power port are located. I had just enough wire on the usb connector (which is a few inches shorter than the 3.5 mm jack line) to get it there. It's not an "invisible" installation but you have to be looking for it to see it. Finally, one of the things that really sold me on this unit was the auto-power off/auto power on with the cigarette lighter. Many of the other receivers either don't do this or have a battery so they stay on when the ignition is shut off. This feature, along with auto pairing with the last device it was connected to (as long as the BT on that device is on), makes it almost as good as having the technology built into the car. I noticed that when I turn the ignition off, my Galaxy S7 would pause the music if I was streaming Pandora. However, my Motorola Droid wpuld switch over and continue to play Pandora through my phone. Again, this is a phone issue, not an issue with the BK01. So, all-in-all, I can't say enough good things about this device. For my 2011 Hyundai Genesis, which did not come with BT for audio connections, this is the almost perfect, low-cost, solution. I hope this review helps you.....
