Bluetooth At A Fair Price

UPS just delivered my BTFREQ Bluetooth device. So easy to hook up. No complicated instructions for this 80 year old dunce. My 2004 Silverado is now streaming my iPhone play lists and the hands free phone is a plus. Truck didn't have bluetooth from the factory, but it does now. It streams the directions from my iPhone to the radio speaker. Sounds great! Thanks to Sam at Crutchfield for suggesting this device. Other audio shops were quoting up to $500 for an upgrade. It's nice to deal with honest techs that offer simple solutions. John

Exactly What I was Looking For

This small unit allows me easy access to phone audio in my pre-Bluetooth vehicle. The small unit fits quite nicely in the small alcove where the Cigarette Lighter/AUX power connection is at. Restarts automatically when plugged in and pairs easily with my phone.

Awesome product for a new radio to an old device

My company work van was changed to a 2023 ford transit 150 cargo and all my music is in a ipod when when I used usb port screen said device not supported then I got this product and it work like a charm now it has a dual purpose because I use it in work van or my vintage car and there is where I take advantage of bluetooth connecting cellphone or an ipod I highly recommend this if you want hands free cell or your bluetooth connected music on your old outdated radio or outdated devices to a new radio.

Great Connection, Low Sound Volume

This was very easy to use and works great. I had an older FM transmitter a few years ago that would only work on a TOTALLY vacant frequency. This one can overcome distant, static filled stations with a clear signal. My only concern is volume. Bluetooth paired with my iPhone the volume coming out of the radio is much less than a radio stations, even with the phone volume on max. I don't know whether to blame the phone, device, or radio for that. UPDATED 1/23/23: I found the issue. iPhone has a "feature" that limits the "headphone" volume. With that on, I couldn't get the transmitter to match broadcast volume.

Great little unit.

Only used it once so far to try it out. Followed directions. Worked perfectly. Did exactly what I wanted it to do--stream music from my phone to my car radio. I picked this one from Crutchfield because I knew I could return it within 60 days if I did not like it. I have always been satisfied with every purchase I have made here. An extra plus was that I used my rewards points to pay for it. Thanks, Crutchfield!

Solid, not perfext.

Not the easiest modulator I've used while driving. The display is not very bright and clicking through manually is a little difficult. The remote option does help. It does for a great job of fighting static on available frequencies.

This works great. I drive through areas that drop the station that I'm listening to. The first station that was picked up by the device has stayed strong for over a week now. I'm impressed. The sound is also very good, I can't tell that it is a Bluetooth device. Highly recommend this device.

Good to go!

Easy peasy set up, did exactly what I expected it to do. Blue tooth to fm worked like a champ in my 20 year old motor home. Now I can use sirius xm from my phone to the built in radio without having to try to update the rv sound system. Found an empty fm station, worked fine on the 300 mile trip going and coming. The usb connector kept my phone charged the whole way. I am pleased.

This device did the trick. Works well and simply and consistently. Audio quality is as good as that of my native audio system in the car. Before getting this I was unable to listen to any streaming content while driving my 2007Mercedes Benz SL550. This solution works.

This product was exactly what I needed, and it works great! My 2008 Scion TC is running well but has over 130,000 miles, so rather than invest in an updated sound system or go to the expense of diagnostics and repair at the dealership, I did a search and ended up on this site. Paul was very helpful in answering my questions and knowing just what was needed for my situation. Problem solved!

Did not work out for me and was defective after an hours use.

My 2007 Jeep Commander radio has no aux in. The only choice for Bluetooth connection is thru FM. Well, there are no blank stations as suggested in the instructions on the radio. There is static between all stations. This static comes through on my phone music. Frequency response of the audio is terrible (ie no bass and distorted high)s. In addition I can no longer select an alternate frequency. This device would still be useful for somebody with an aux in jack on their radio.

Unit is working well. It synched up with an unused FM frequency well. My phone's Bluetooth synched up well with unit. I am able to use my gps, stored music, and telephone through my existing car stereo. I am very pleased with that. The only thing I am missing is being able to control phone from unit. Instead I have to answer phone or change songs by using my iPhone. All in all though I am very satisfied. And the salesmen that helped me on the phone was great!

Parkville

My college graduate daughter drives a 1999 Lexus RX 300 with relatively low miles. She wanted me to buy her a newer car for graduation and one reason was that she did not have Bluetooth streaming capabilities. I personally detailed her car, had the bumper and the torn seat repaired, plugged in the Scosche BTFreq to the cigarette lighter (yes it still is a cigarette lighter) and BOOM. Newer car! She loves it. We all drive older Lexus vehicles before 2003. I'm ordering 3 more Scosche BTFreq's.

Works like OEM car built-in units, with one minor shortfall

Not sure what I was thinking when I didn't immediately look to Crutchfield for advice regarding car audio. As usual, they had the absolutely BEST answer. I'd never even heard of Scosche before. What a TERRIFIC product. Got for our son for Christmas as his old beater (Chevy Colorado) truck doesn't; even have an AUX port. He absolutely loves it and says that is works flawlessly. Heard it myself and, for sure, it works way better than the other 3-4 of these B/T FM transmitters that we've tried. Only one bummer, wish that you could have a list of a few B/T devices saved so you could easily switch between them like most of the OEM systems in today's cars. Thanks Crutchfield for the solid advice.

I have an older car that doesn't have any type of input so I ordered this since it's wireless. This thing works great for streaming songs off my iPhone and also for making and receiving calls. It's super easy to set up and works great! The sound quality is really good as if it was the car stereo itself.

Great sound

Easy set up.?Once I found a good broadcasting station, the sound is as good as anything playing from my CD player. Very tiny if anything at all in background noise from acceleration. I love the hands free phone feature. Also the suns port is brilliant as you would have lost the ability to charge your phone otherwise.Worth the extra few dollars for this quality product. I've only Gad it for a week so not sure about durability but it is a solid piece. Nothing flimsy about it.

Far Superior to inexpensive FM Transmitters

Despite the recommendations of my 18 year old son to "Just get one for $10 on Amazon" I decided to get this FM Transmitter from Crutchfield as a stop gap until I decide which radio to purchase. He laughed when I told him how much I paid, three times what he paid for his, until he heard the sound quality. No hiss, great bass, and far superior super mid-range and treble quality than the one I borrowed from him. And for us "old guys" the functionality, display and controls are great. Super service and quick shipping to complete the deal. I'll definitively be getting the new radio from Crutchfield when it's time.

Easy Bluetooth adapter for older cars/trucks!

Very pleasantly surprised by this unit. I was expecting the typical cassette type quality but that was not the case. The directions were easy to follow and the process was painless. I then tried out the bluetooth audio playback. The sound was great with even the bass coming through, no static, no distortion etc. You do need to raise the volume on your player in order to get more volume out of the factory radio. You can even skip forward and skip back using the buttons on the face of the control head. I have not tried the remote as where this is located in my truck (4runner) the 12 volt power source is right next to the shifter.

Attempted to use this product to connect a smart phone and/or iPod to a factory GM stereo. Even though it fulfilled the expected function, the sound quality was very poor with a lot of feedback/humming. Does it work? yes. Does it work well, not so much. I will be looking for other solutions.

Great for Podcasts

Very easy to set up. I travel from NJ to the Philly area, so the reception on my FM tuner changes depending on my location, and it means more static in some parts of my trip. Because of this unpredictable static, I won't really be using the device for music. However, it is great for listening to podcasts and making calls. It definitely beats listening to my iPhone speaker while on the road!

So far, so good!

I haven't been using this product for that long, but so far so good! The clarity of the sound is great when listening to music with little to no static, and it's very easy to find an ideal station through which to stream--MUCH better than basic FM transmitters I've used before this, and I love how quickly my phone links into the Bluetooth. Sound is also good on calls, but you will want to make sure your phone is relatively close to your head or that you speak loudly/clearly because I believe it's still the phone's mic you're using on your end--I've had people on the other end of the line tell me they can't hear me that well, unless I make sure to keep the phone at least at head level (I suggest making sure your phone is at least attached to a mount). Last thing -- while convenient that the product has a USB port for charging, I have noticed that I can hear a strange high-pitched almost whirring/whining sound when I accelerate/decelerate if I have my phone charging through the device (the sound is not present if I don't have anything plugged into the product's USB port). Don't know if it's just because of my car (I have a 2005 Acura MDX), but it's not a huge deal since I have another port through which I can charge my phone. Bottom line, this is a solid product that does just what it says it will, and it's affordable too.

A Great Piece of Equipment

I have to say that I was leery of trying an FM related piece of equipment. I've tried those before in the past and ended up thinking I wasted my money. This equipment could not be more different. It's excellent in every respect. It sets up quickly and easily. When in use, the Bluetooth locks onto my phone within seconds. The sound I'm getting through my auto sound system (a Bose upgrade in a 2003 Porsche C4S) is astoundingly good. And here I was prepared to spend a few hundred dollars to SOMEHOW connect my phone to the sound system. My only question--which I have not yet figured out, is this: on a phone call, where is the microphone that is picking up my voice when the call is going through the Scosche BTFreq? Is it the microphone on the phone? Or does the Scoche have a microphone? People on calls don't seem to be hearing me very well. I"m still investigating.

Simply plug in, set to a FM station matching car radio and pair with bluetooth device. Works perfect. After initial pairing with my iPhone it connects automatically when I get in the vehicle. I was surprised at the sound quality. Playing music via iPhone it sounds every bit as good as playing a CD in my vehicle. No hiss or static. Very pleased.
