    how easy would it be to setup with multiple devices - say in a semi public setting ?

    i got mine today. put it through hi-fi (panasonic) and it sounds great. no cutting or peaking. put it through genelec monitors and it sounds good too. range for me is about 5m. still though, i had breakfast this morning in the kitchen, put on spotify while browsing the net on my phone and listened to soothing sounds coming from sitting room. its pretty cool!

    @captain midnight. would love to know what its like on multiple devices too.

    it's powered by the usb and plays music through the 3.5mm

    what type of speaker setup do you have

    Likewise, although for me, it was the solution to the problem I never had in the first place! (Much like all great solutions)

    Logitech x240.

    http://www.amazon.co.uk/Logitech-970285-0120-X-240-Speakers-2-1/dp/B000RY58PG

    Speakers -> via 3.5mm -> Subwoofer.
    Subwoofer -> lead -> control centre (with power on/off switch).
    Control centre -> lead -> via 3.5 mm -> smartphone/laptop etc.

    The only usb slot would be on a laptop.

    You plug the USB into a power source. I use a spare iPhone plug ie pop the USB into the plug and plug straight into a power socket.
    Then just pull the 3.5mm into your source in to the speakers. That's it. For now I have a really basic cheap set of Logitech speakers purchased from lidl a few weeks ago. This solution is perfect. But I plan to pick up a better set of speakers.

    If you use the speakers for pc or laptop you could feed the blue tooth audio out into the laptop line in or mic

    Or the just directly to the speakers with some stand alone usb power

    Mine arrived today.

    It really is well worth it for the money.

    Plugged it into a USB plug and the 3.5mm from my dual phono cable coming from my speakers.

    Sounds fine to me :)

    Folks can anyone tell whether this would work to connect this: http://www.amazon.co.uk/WD-Live-Stream-Media-Player/dp/B005MYX33K/ref=dp_return_2?ie=UTF8&n=340831031&s=computers to my speakers across the room?

    Does it matter if the audio out from the WD LIVE TV isn't done via usb?

    I'm just after receiving this but don't know how to get it to work. I have speakers with a usb port on it and also with an auxiliary in socket. I have the bluetooth dongle plugged in and the 3.5mm lead out of the dongle and into the auxiliary too. Don't know if that's right but the laptop isn't picking up any bluetooth devices around?

    Is the blue light flashing on the usb? Most likely the usb isn't being powered as you need to be in aux mode. One way to check if this is the problem is bring your laptop over to the speakers and plug the usb into the laptop with the aux cable into the speakers on aux mode. Then do a search for bluetooh devices.

    Long term solution is to get a wall socket usb charger and plug the usb into that.
