While it’s straightforward to adapt a cassette player to play streamed music, it’s impossible to adapt a CD player to do the same thing.

Your sharing your story helps others know what to expect from this device, which is more valuable than the few pictures and words we ourselves can say about it. If someone is looking for a way to extend the life of existing audio technology and incorporate it with today’s Bluetooth connectivity, look no further than the Anker AK-A3341011 Soundsync A3341 Bluetooth 2-In-1 Transmitter and Receiver. Works well but occasional distortion from electrics inside car however this can be eliminated with a Jack ground loop however this cures interference but decreases base response which isnt too noticeable unless you are familiar with the track. The Soundsync A3341 contains a rechargeable battery, which can be fully charged via the included micro USB cable and a USB charger (not included) in approximately 2 hours.The device should be charged at least once a month to prevent battery from experiencing excessive self-discharge phenomenon. That means, provided you leave Bluetooth switched on in your phone, all you need to do to start streaming when you get in the car is switch the SoundSync on and open your favourite music app.

The volume when using the SoundSync is clearly lower than when using the Aux cable between the phone and port.The lights turn green then back to blue about the 10 sec mark; but no connection to my Soundbar; like it used to. The SoundSync does what I want it to do with the lone exception that the music volume is significantly lower than with a cable.

Finally, I turned on my Bluetooth headset, which immediately paired with the Soundsync A3341 and soon clear TV audio was coming through the headset speakers. The Anker AK-A3341011 Soundsync A3341 Bluetooth 2-In-1 Transmitter and Receiver is a small, black square-shaped device, weighing less than 2 ounces and measuring approximately 2.

And so here I am in 2023, fresh off a move to a new neighborhood, lacking the comforts of living situations past, and nary a Bluetooth audio device in sight. Press the multi-function button on Soundsync twice to enter Bluetooth pairing mode, then connect the first device to your Soundsync.

Initial setup at home was a bit tricky as there is no interface and it will connect to the first discoverable Bluetooth device, but no problems once I got that straightened out.I’m thinking about picking up another to stick on an old set of over ear headphones that sound amazing but I rarely use because I move around constantly and the wire doesn’t jive.
