Smof 30 Pin Bluetooth Adapter Receiver for Bose Sounddock iPod iPhone Music Docking Station and Other 30 Pin Dock Speakers Bluetooth Audio Receiver with 3.5 mm Audio Cable (Not for Car or Motorcycle)

Works without then cable on our Bose Enjoying the music now

First of all, don't pay any attention to all these reviewers who claim it doesn't work. It works perfectly, but there's a step that was left out of the user manual. If the device isn't supplying charging power to the docking port, there is no power to operate this device. In my case, I have an old Ion Tailgater, and on the back is a switch labeled "Charge Power". It was off when I first tried the device, and naturally, it appeared dead. The second I turned that switch on it lit up. Bluetooth integration with my iPhone was seamless, and off it went. I was about to sell or toss this old Ion cube speaker. Apple hasn't sold a phone that docks to it in YEARS. Before I trashed it, I went looking to see if I could find a 30-pin to Lightning adapter that might make it useable again, and this little gem appeared in my search results. It has literally breathed new life into my Tailgater. Now, instead of having my phone docked to it, it connects via Bluetooth, with all the advantages of a thoroughly modern (and LOUD) Bluetooth speaker. Love it - and highly recommend it!

Working perfectly

Easy to use, plugged it into older Bose speaker and it played as it should. Good product but for some reason it took much longer to arrive. It seems you can't expect the truth in shipping these days. When they say tomorrow or the next day, that must've been the way it used to be when I first signed onto Prime.

Bought two of these for my quote unquote work radios. Ones for my Apple boombox, and the other is for my Bose docking system. Both high-end stereo components at least for their time. I use Android now that Apple fan and these both are 30 pin units so I needed to find a way to utilize these awesome sounding pieces of stereo with my android. This was a great solution that works wonderfully with all functions. My Apple remote works my Bose remote works with this product. My Bose unit is a docking style too I believe I would take a picture but it's at work. Like I said all functions work via my Android through the Bluetooth unit which has good range and good sound quality. Like I said I have purchased two of these because the first one was a good purchase so I bought a second and we'll probably be buying a third for my Yamaha surround sound that I don't have the Bluetooth connector for this stereo. But did try and it also works well in that too.

I was hoping to reduce waste by being able to start using my old Bose iPod speaker again with the Smof adapter. No luck. The adapter fits perfectly into the 30-pin prong, the blue lights come on, indicating it's working, and my iPhone even reads the Bluetooth signal and connects; the problem is that the Smof adapter simply doesn't work. What's more, the Smof's AUX input also doesn't work. When I plug my phone or laptop directly into the speaker's AUX input, the speaker works fine, and the sound is rich and clear. But with the Smof adapter? Nothing: no Bluetooth and no AUX input. And the QR code that the product came with is also useless because the page it directs you to no longer exists. This was a waste of money and time and, instead of reducing waste, I now have a useless piece of electrical equipment wrapped in plastic to contend with. To all future buyers, don't bother.

Connects well and broadcasts clearly no static High pitched connect tone is the only drawback, but that’s only when it first connects to your device Otherwise it’s a good buy and converts old technology to new

Works great with my old Bose sound dock. Plugs in where you would put the iPod or you can use the external jack and now I can Bluetooth anything to my Bose. Very happy

Works very good on my old harman kardon Goplay ! Pairing was easy with my Google pixel 9 pro xl. I recommand

Price is on the higher side but you won't regret at all. I use it on my old Bose iPod dock. No connectivity drops, full Bose quality sound. Extremely satisfied!

Der Adapter funktioniert super! Ich war mir zuerst nicht sicher, ob er auch mit meiner Sony ICF-DS15iP kompatibel ist, darum habe ich den Support angeschrieben: Antwort kam innerhalb von 48h und war auch richtig: alles klappt hervorragend. Daumen hoch, absolute Kaufempfehlung für alle, die ihre älteren Dockingstations weiterhin nutzen möchten!

Tengo un altavoz B&W de hace un poco de tiempo cuyo conector es 30 pines de Apple. Con el cambiode tipos de conector y al no tener integrado el modulo de AirPlay, hace tiempo que compre un conversor para conectarlo al iPhone XS y con eso iba tirando. Se rompio el conversor y alguien me hablo de este tipo de conectores por bluetooth. La instalacion es solo acoplarlo al conector de 30 pines y tiene un boto de apagado y encendido. En cuanto lo conectas y enciendes, lo detecta el altavoz y se pone en marcha. Lo conectas a tu movil por Bluetooth y funciona de maravilla. Tiene todo el espectro de distancia adecuado y me funciona muy bien. No noto perdida de calidad de sonido, quiza que el volumen este un poco mas bajo. Si es cierto que con el conector encendido, el altavoz nunca se apaga, aunque ya no este recibiendo señal de audio del movil. Esto tarde unos dias en darme cuenta. Pero simplemente, apagas el conector o como yo hago, lo quitas y ya esta. Es sencillo su montaje y funciona. una vez hecha la primera conexión, me sigue funcionando y no ha sido necesaria volver a reconectarlo. Te lo recomiendo. Te solucionara este problema. Espero que te sea útil mi opinión. Saludos

Works fine but for some devices (like mine, a Kenwood dock): you still need the jack cable to send the received audio signal by Bluetooth waves to this little device on the dock and connect it to to the analog input of the system. And of course put the selection of the audio source also to analog signal. Then, all works fine and upgraded my system again for use with a recent iPhone 17 with USB-C connector :-)
