Does this radio require an additional purchase to act as a Bluetooth receiver? If so, how much does it cost? The expanded description suggests this.

If i understand your question.. yes.. i have 'hooked' it up to my kindle fire, played music or netflix on it, with the sound coming out of the Sangean. Note, it will be mono output unless you've got stereo speakers hooked up to the Sangean. As I noted in my review, it processes stereo and can output it, but it only has mono in and of itself. hope that answered your Q!

No. I use bluetooth all the time with no modification or additional equipment necessary.

No, as long as you have the WR-22, and a device that will let you play music through a bluetooth device you're set.

No additional purchase is necessary to use the Bluetooth function, programming was a breeze.

It requires an accessory. It is misclassified on Amazon as built-in. I thought I wanted hd radio too, but even without it, this stereo is a great bargain. My coworker bought one after he saw how well mine works with my phone for Bluetooth audio, pandora, hands free calls. I love it.

It come with a auxiliary connection for a Bluetooth adapter but I was disappointed to see it doesn't actually have Bluetooth installed already but not a bad radio for the price

No. it adds blue tooth to my boombox which lacks it. So I can play my bluetooth enabled DRoID music thru it. The boom box is the receiver....... this thing turns it into bluetooth audio receiver....you need a transmitter.......or a bluetooth capable MP3

unfortunately, no. you need bluetooth because it does not have an auxiliary port.

It isn't needed. Open windows icon on bar. Search for services. And turn on Bluetooth services in the list. The software they provide is a trial and is too expensive to buy. It works wonderful with windows but you have to enable it to work with the os.

I thought that not having it was going to bug me, but it really hasn't been an issue. Do you have lots of bluetooth peripherals? Like les1984 basically suggested, you can get bluetooth receivers that don't stick out past the USB slot and always leave it in. EDIT: Here is a link to an example. You might be able to find more options prices elsewhere: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833242001

It only functions as a (Bluetooth) receiver. Cannot be used to connect to or transmit other speakers.

Rashad N. Forbes, This unit does not ship with Bluetooth, but that could be added easily, as the system is built entirely from non-proprietary parts. If added via USB dongle, and you wouldn't even have to open the system.

no, this is a bluetooth reciever... you need to buy a bluetooth for streaming

No. You must buy an extra bluetooth receiver and plu it to the LINE IN conection in the Geneva

Technically you need a Bluetooth *Transmitter*. Not a Bluetooth Receiver. Sometimes the description will say TX for transmitter and RX for receiver.It should work with any Bluetooth Transmitter, but try to get one that is Bluetooth Version 4.0. Then you'll know it's relatively new.

no it does not, but it can be added by software updates and hardware, also by adding a bluetooth dongle.

Basically all this item is, is an extension for your headphone jack. If your receiver plugs into the headphone jack, then yes. It works great as an extension to get past the edge of a bulky case. I am note sure if you were asking if this could be used AS a BLUETOOTH receiver that is a no. IF you can use it with a BLUETOOTH Adapter the yes if it plugs into a 3.5 mm jack. Hope this helps.

I am not sure if i got your question completely.This is Bluetooth receiver, and can receive streaming music from any device with Bluetooth transmission like a mobile phone. Of that device had capability to play music from external device then the device can send music to Bluetooth receiver like this.HTH.

This model does come with a remote but does not have Bluetooth. I have actually put this in two of my vehicles now because I liked it so much. The biggest plus for me was how simple it made navigating sub-folders on a plugged in flash drive. Highly reccommend it, however if Bluetooth is a must then check out their other models. This model does HD radio while the other model is identical but instead has Bluetooth.

No. That would be a different bundle or purchase the Bluetooth adapter separately.
