These headphones have worked well on all the product I've tried including a iPhone 4s, iPod Touch 4th generation, Android tablet. I can tell you taht the sound quality is impacted if I leave WiFi on will the device is out of range of the WiFi. I think that's the device hunting for a connection and has nothing to do with the headphones.I can't leave WiFi on while walking through downtown because my iPhone tries to talk to every hotspot and this seems to disrupt the bluetooth audio.

I have the iPod touch fifth-generation, and they work very well with it and my late 2012, 27 inch iMac. Excellent sound.

If I'm not mistaken you can't use it on the iPhone as a transmitter. You use it as a receiver. It will receive music from iPhone and send it to.....for example, your car stereo. If you have Bluetooth headphones or speakers you would use it as a transmitter for example I have an old mixer for DJing and it's not Bluetooth so I put the BTR9 in the jack where the headphones go......now it transmits the music to my headphones. To pair it to your iPhone just turn on the BTR9 then turn ur Bluetooth on on ur iPhone and it should find it. It took a couple of on and off before it read the signal but now that it's hook as soon as I turn on my iPhone or the BTR9 it automatically connects. Hope this was helpful and hope I didn't offend u in anyway by explaining more in depth.

There shouldn't be any issues with any BT devices that are less than 3 - 4 years old. I can't comment on the iPhone4 personally as I've only used mine with an iPhone5 and Nexus5, but they both work flawlessly. Apple is also very good at keeping their devices as up to date as possible with things like BT communications protocols (within reason). The iPhone4 should work just fine.

I don't think there is any Bluetooth connectivity here. My iPad does not see it. My iPhone 4S does not see it. There is no Bluetooth symbol or sticker on the speakers anywhere. I'm not sure what the item description: "Superb gaming sound effects via Bluetooth,DBB to preserve low tones for deep bass at any volume level." is referring to. I'd be interested in knowing if anyone has connected to it themselves as it would be useful to have my iPad oriented horizontally (for movies) and still use the speakers (undocked).

My unit may or may not work at any given distance. Experience with this device (and I have TWO of them) is similar to yours, though. I've always put it down to the Bluetooth capability of my iPhone being quite limited. I doubt that you have a defective device. Instead, I think that it's mostly just limitations of Bluetooth...AND the fact that this device just isn't quite as "quality" as we'd like for it to be. Put that down to "you get what you pay for"...and these were't very expensive.

to whom is may matter, I have bad experience myself this product have been defect for a while if return twice and they exchange for new one still happen the same thing, my result is return the product get the morning back (it's good sound but does not work right with the Bluetooth, and battery life) good luck

Haven't tried this so I couldn't give you a proven answer. The transmitter was designed to send a stereo signal to two Bluetooth receiver equipped devices. So if you were to pair the transmitter with two BT receivers connected to two separate single channel amps (like two guitar amps), both would receive the stereo signal (mixed L&R; channels) and the stereo effect from the source audio would be lost in playback. But if a BT speaker set being used automatically splits any stereo signal being received back into L&R; stereo channels, presumably it would still play your source audio with the stereo effect intact.

I've never updated the firmware on the Bluetooth adapter but thanks for the idea! I'm running the bt300 on a kvt514 deck and the problem I have with my iphone is that I always have to connect to the bt300 from my phone. Never had to shut down the deck though. Try the firmware update sorry for not being much help

I have used my ipod touch 2nd gen, iPhone 4, iPad 3rd gen and a friend tried his Droid phone with it and they all work great for music via bluetooth. Also, I've had several other radios that would mysteriously fail to reconnect after turning off and restarting the car, this one has never had that issue. Touch screen works perfectly, hands free calls are clear and people don't complain that they can't hear me. If the other person is a quiet talker, turn up the volume and when you hang up the music resumes at the pre-call volume. I've had just about every brand of high-end radios you can think of and this little JVC is the best of them all imo. I highly doubt you'd be disappointed with this radio.

I newer didn't have Ipod and I'm not sure that iPod has Bluetooth connection at all. Regarding other devices which haves Bluetooth connection, put your device in pairing mode, then press Pairing button on the top of right earphone for 3 seconds. It will start blinking blue light fast. At that time on your device find DRBT101 headphones and press "Pair". After pairing is completed blue LED will blink slowly (once in 5 seconds). That is all.

You may have been inadvertently shipped a receiver and not a transmitter. Mine will not pair with my Bluetooth earbuds either, but discovered that it will pair with my phone. Phones will not pair with transmitters - I got a receiver instead. Since they are visually identical it appears that many have been incorrectly packaged.

As Chris said below, the output on this device is limited to just speakers. It does not broadcast the audio via bluetooth. If you are playing via device on bluetooth it locks out the usb or sd/mmc It would connect to your hearing aid but then could only output your audio which could cause feedback. It did a great job on my devices: computer (bluetooth usb adapter ver. 3 and direct connect android pad with remote control changing the files on the attached device, bluetooth or direct but beware that sub usb charging jack needs reinforced.What are the options on you hearing device or model number.

why can't it connect to any bluetooth device? What's different about bluetooth cell phones than any other bluetooth device?I'm thinking of pairing it with my Oticon bluetooth streamer which gives me audio in/out to the hearing aids to/from the landline phone system. Why not?Once the streamer is paired it should work.

If what you mean is that the line level is too low for the bluetooth transmitter then yes, this would fix that. It's possible that the line level out from your receiver is much lower than what the bluetooth transmitter requires. This will not make your Bluetooth transmit transmit further as some other answers seemed interpret was your question.You might also see if the line level can be configured in your receiver. You might be able to switch it to a hotter signal.

It does not come with BT connectivity but you can buy separately a Fusion BT dongle. We've just bought one but haven't installed it yet so I can't comment on how well it works. As for iPhone 6 compatibility, I would doubt it because this unit is designed for iPod. Personally I'm holding out high hopes for the BT functionality.

Just worked for me, thanks. Remember to get the earphones into pairing mode before you try this, turning them on won't necessarily start the pairing going. I didn't realise that hence it wasn't picking anything up the way it did with my iPhone automatically. Just to be sure I held the power button long enough until pairing started THEN I turned on the Bluetooth on my mini ipad and it paired right away.

Last month I tried them with an ipod and they worked great and the sound was good. I think the sound volume is only low when it works with the Innotab. But unfortunately the black ear piece covering continuosly fell off and one was lost. They just would not stay on. I personally am looking for a different pair. I hope this helps.
