[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My older vehicle was made before bluetooth, so this Bluetooth adapter provides an easy way to play music or hear GPS commands. Simply plug phone into the aux cord and sync to phone. You can even answer phone calls! Also works great on your TV or stereo. Great sound quality and easy to use!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Blue tooth repeater

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The "Monster" bluetooth audio receiver is a fairly simple device to allow one to connect to an audio device, such as older car stereos, and then provide audio via the blutooth connection on their phone (or other similarly capable bluetooth device). The radio audio can be interrupted to answer incoming phone calls with the touch of a button (Or via voice control such as SIRI or Google Assistant if you like) I have found that the biggest single factor in determining whether this audio receiver will work for you is the audio connection and capabilities of your audio device.
First off your car radio or other audio device must have an audio out port. Most audio devices such as home radios or stereos do, however car radios vary greatly. Most newer cars have bluetooth built in and thus it is not a factor. Older cars (Classics and earlier) usually do NOT have an audio out port. On the other hand most vehicles under 15 years old and prior to bluetooth DO have an audio jack. However the features available and user interface are varied and may effect some features of the Monster receiver. That being said, if your car radio has an audio out and no bluetooth, then the Monster is a very capable way to obtain bluetooth Hands Free operation of your phone. Answering phone calls is easy and straight forward, with clear voice reception and transmittal via the built in Mic. The unit is relatively small and will attach easily and unobtrusively and can be recharged via any usb port (Cable included). The instructions which come with the device are somewhat vague and assume some user familiarity with bluetooth usage, however on line help is available. In summary, this device can provide bluetooth, and thus "Hands Free" capability (now legally required in most states) to your vehicle.

Monster Bluetooth Auxiliary Audio Receiver
on January 2, 2021
Posted by: princessbt
from Georgia
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is compact so it will not take up much space in a vehicle. The setup is fairly easy. It has to be charge before being able to set it up. It can be connected to your phone using Bluetooth. It makes it possible to be able to receive calls or listen to music. In order to take a call the button has to be pressed. The same needs to be done to end the call. I think it works OK. It is cheaply made out of plastic. It comes with all the things needed to get it to work.

Good idea

from Little Rock, AR
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This audio receiver with voice control seems like a good idea in theory but the execution of it went wrong with this item. It does work, don't get me wrong. But the power button seems to work on it's own sweet time. It doesn't always pick up my voice correctly. It's easy to connect and use, when it's not being picky. It's got a usage of 3-4 hours which isn't that long. It is quick to charge.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Monster Bluetooth Auxiliary kit
on December 31, 2020

from Greater Chicagoland
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Small and lightweight this little device will enable you to connect your MP3 player or cellular phone(having a traditional headset connector type) to any auxiliary port so that your music or device audio can be projected on a larger speaker type or in the car!
The voice control remote will need to be charged for its features but the side by side connector functions just fine when connected.

Great Product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] If you like playing music from your phone and don't have an auxiliary port, this is a great product. It is so user friendly and makes streaming music or podcasts such a breeze. Easy to connect and works great every time! So if you need to stream anything and don't have Bluetooth, this is a great product to connect your phone to the car. Definitely recommend
