I have 2 questions, 1st, can this be used to map out the wiring in a car? 2nd, does the receiver have a built in speaker or must the earbuds be used?

You can use it in a car, boat, or what ever has wire. There are alligator clips to use with a raw wires in a car. Disconnect the car battery first before using the device. There is a speaker in the receiver and a set of ear buds is also provided. Its a very good set for occasional use. I couldn't believe the price. I had a more expensive Ethernet "toner" at my job but it did the same thing. I used it to trace out my house wiring.

Let me answer your second question first. It puts out a very loud tone, so that you don't need the ear buds. Now, as far as using it on automotive wiring, you'd have to make up an adapter to convert the RJ-45 (Ethernet) jack or RJ-15 (4-Line Telephone) jack to whatever plug or wire you need to tone out on a car. This could also be done with alligator clips. But, I'd recommend a tool more suitable for this job.

It has a speaker. As far as wiring in a car goes: in some conditions you could. You would have to use the alligator clips and attach the black to a ground source. I imagine there are better tools for that kind of thing though.

Hi Natalie. In addition to using this unit to convert your speaker output signal to a useable signal for your amplifier, you would also need an amp wiring Kit for power from your vehicles battery, as well as a ground for your amp and a remote turn on lead (Kit usually comes with power wire, ground wire, remote turn on wire, RCA cables). Hope this helps!

This isn't really a receiver as understood as a component of a stereo system, it is a signal reciever for the wireless microphones which then uses a cable to send the mic signal to a real receiver. This provides enough power to provide a decent quality of signal, but to power speakers you need either powered speakers or a receiver/powered amp to provide power to your speakers. I hope this helps.

Usually aftermarket speakers have a female to male connections so you would have to cut the wires from your car and connect them to a male connecter then you'll be able to connect them to the speakers.

this device is simply a receiver, you need an amplifier. I plug it into the AUX audio jack on the back of my stereo.. Range is kinda disappointing, like 15' line of sight.

So no it won't you would need to find a Bluetooth receiver if your car stereo has an auxiliary in headphone jack.You only have to pair it once.

I think not. The receiver does have Bluetooth, but it is for receiving audio signals from mobile devices, tablets, and Bluetooth equipped computers. Not for sending signals to rear speakers. Usually a system that can do that comes with those rear Bluetooth speakers. In any case, they do not really solve the "wires" problem in a 7.2 surround system, because you still have two Wide speakers spread across the room with wires of their own to trip over. I solved my problem with a floor wire cover from the front of the room to the rear with wires from all 4 speakers (Wide & Rear) getting dispersed under the viewing seats.

Hi Kendra,This device just is the USB interface. Basically it replaces the audio wire from your phone to the car receiver. Instead of actual wire it uses radio ways. I hope it helps.Regards,Mark

The rear speakers are attached to a small wireless device. You need to connect the wires from the rear speakers to the wireless device and not to the Main Receiver.. Hope it helps.

If this is the receiver you can plug this into the aux in the car and it will play the music from your phone but if this is the transmitter then no you can't they sell both types for different needs

It's a speaker, not a receiver. You don't plug earphones into your speakers in the car or house, do you? No, you plug earphones into the receiver or recording device, or Ipod, smart phone, or mp3.

Hi Roy Keller, This receiver only receives bluetooth signal from a certain device and output audio to the speakers. It cannot output bluetooth signal to a bluetooth headphones. Thanks. &gt;Joffrey

With the Connect, you can use your own speakers. The Connect will work like any other device connected to your receiver. Enjoy!

Those are good questions.I bought this unit by accident for a friend for Christmas.By the time we got to use this it was too late for return.I like the unit with the speakers because you don't have to worry about wires because the wires and speakers are tucked in and out of the way.I would not recommend this item.

Lucho mentioned getting a "speaker wire, cut the RCA open on the male side, splice in the speaker wire, and viola! you have a converter." I wouldn't do this. You risk frying your transmitter. What you need is a line level convertor. You can get these anywhere car audio is sold. Amazon has one, search for "Scosche SLC4 - High level line converter". Its 20 bucks.This actually has more inputs than you need, 4 speaker and 4 rca.

This is intended for cars without bluetooth. I don't know why you would have a need for it if your car is bluetooth capable already.
