Can the speaker connect to a digital music service like Spotify via bluetooth? Or is it only the mp3 player that the phone uses by default?

I used pandora and spotify on my phone with it. The speaker responds to whatever is playing on your device

I use Spotify over blue tooth. You can use the receiver to skip through songs.

Yes - It will play thru the speakers if an auxiliary player, etc is either hooked up via the line input jack, USB port or wireless. From the Killer Concepts website, this is what it states:"Bluetooth 3.0 technologyOffers simple connection with compatible devices, including Apple® iPod®, iPhone® and iPad®, most Android devices, and most Bluetooth - enabled tablets, computers and MP3 players.3.5mm line inputEnables connection of other MP3 players and portable audio devices with use of a 3.5mm stereo audio cable (included) for listening to your music.

The audio output jack is connected to the unit itself. That plugs into your phone. You can't connect via Bluetooth with this unit but Amazon offers others that can.

At least with Pandora and Slaker etc you can using earbuds, buid in speaker or connected to an external speaker. Great whem u don't want to use ur phone for that and easier to browse stations.

It does NOT have Bluetooth. And I believe a Bridge is required to use ANY functionality on the speaker. There is a line-in on it, but it's meant to feed info to the Bridge through your network so it can send to all the Sonos speakers indirectly. You can't use the line-in to play directly through the Play:5. If that's what you want, I'd get a standalone speaker rather than Sonos.

You have to select the BT Speaker on your phone and wait for them to connect. The speaker will announce "bluetooth connected" and then your ready to play your music. If the speaker doesn't announce it's connected it won't play. That's how I've noticed mines works. I have 2 of them. One for my restroom and one in the kitchen, I'm a music addict. Lol. Hope this helps!!

Hi Bally, this product is a Bluetooth handset and only works if you connect your phone vía Bluetooth.This is not a Mp3 player, the music that you can Listen must be played through your phone.

Hey there unfortunately this speaker is not bluetooth, it's actually connected through the phone with a cord. but for the most part its pretty loud, nice bass is decent especially for the price. but I ended up upgrading to a JBL Bluetooth speaker soon after .

No, it will read "no source found" or similar when you try and play the music files from your phone. You can only plug a flash drive into the USB port to play music that way; bit of a disappointment to me as the bluetooth is only so-so in my opinion.

bluetooth speakers will connect to any bluetooth ready device. As long as your phone has bluetooth on it you will be alright

No Bluetooth but my model has wifi so it plays pandora. It links to my account and can be controlled through the app from my phone.

It suppose to hook up through your bluetooth. I'm assuming you are going to sync with your phone. Just go to your bluetooth settings search for the device and it will appear on the screen. Switch the speaker to bluetooth logo. It will tell you that it is ready to connect. Once it has connection it will say it's connected. Hope that answered your question. It's really easy to sync.
