What is the Ant ? Is it just a Bluetooth receiver, or is it something else ?

Ant+ is a different protocol than Bluetooth. Same idea, but not compatible. It is used for communication between certain sensor (heart rate, temperature, speed or cadence) and some platform (phone, gps device, pc). Some times it is used between the platforms themselves. This USB stick allows your computer to listen and talk to other ANT+ devices.

ANT+ is a protocol. It is broadcast by compliant devices wirelessly. It is not the same thing as the BlueTooth protocol.

I'm not a techie, but ANT+ is a method of device communication commonly used in athletic gear. This particular device is used to capture the data from my heart rate monitor and the power output from my bicycle trainer live as I'm exercising and display it on the computer screen.

The 305 supports auxilary devices with the ANT+ interface. The heart rate monitor is one such device. Other supported ANT+ interface devices are a cadence meter for biking and a foot pod for running (allows speed and distance to be calculated without GPS reception, or on a tread mill).

This device is a 'bridge' from a Bluetooth media device to a receiver; so whatever you have hooked up to from that receiver (ei speakers) would get the bluetooth media being sent. Example: you could stream Pandora from your phone to this Logitech adapter, and then with the adapter hooked up to a receiver you could listen to your music. Therefor your phone would control the songs/volume being sent.

I had a regular bluetooth adapter that I used in the past in order to pair with my PC. It worked intermittently. I bought a Nerd and am now able to pair both with the ICON and my Jambox (to use as a conference-call speaker phone) without problems. Note that the Nerd is not a generic bluetooth device so you can't pair other things with it. However this has turned out to be a good thing. Now I can pair the ICON with my iPhone over bluetooth and with my laptop via Nerd - no conflicts.

What is,the Bluetooth device you are using to stream to the Bluetooth speakers and what version bluetooth is that device?

Yes, the RFLKT+ (but not the RFLKT) can act as a bridge for ANT+ devices. So any app that can connect to an ANT+ device can do so, even though the iPhone has no ANT+ chip itself - I've tested this with several apps, including Wahoo Fitness, Cyclemeter, Runmeter, and they all connect to Garmin devices fine through the RFLKT+.

Try DAK, only brand I know of that has bluetooth receivers supporting apt-x

What you need is a Bluetooth RECEIVER not a BT Transmiter which is what this is.

No it si a receiver which means that it get the Bluetooth signal from a phone iPod etc and put it out to a speaker(s) or to an amplifier etc you might need a Bluetooth converter to make your computer transmit via Bluetooth but not a receiver.

Android is not the matter here. Kindly check whether your device supports ANT+ radio service.

No, there is no Bluetooth technology. Its a simple MP3 music/E-bboks/AMV(NOT MP4)videos reader, and some simple games installed on it. Good for the price, but of course its no I-Pod!

The Bluetooth is to connect an audio source to the receiver, like a phone or tablet. The speakers are wired.

I can't comment on how the Blue Ant supertooth 3 will work as the company sent me an S3 Blue Ant speakerphone by mistake but i have no problem hearing it on the interstate.I have a 2009 GMC canyon with a loud whinny 4 cylinder & i have minimial road noise at highway speeds which are 70 mph on our interstate ( I- 20 ) here in Louisiana.I have no problem hearing in my pick up. Having driven OTR for 27 years, in 18 wheelers & understand how noisey they can become but i believe that as loud as my speakerphone is ( cheaper version ) that it should suffice. Hope this helps.Best of luck what ever you decide.

No it does not. It's ANT+ which is wireless. ANT+ and Bluetooth are similar but competing technologies. http://www.numetrex.com/our-pulse/2013/11/bluetooth_vs_ant.html
