I know you get iPod specific input jacks for various car audio systems, and
a fake tape to put into older tape deck radios where it actually has its own
input lead, but I still have my little portable guitar amp that I have a few
times plugged my MP3 player into with an adapter to make it work with the
larger input socket, and it means I could do forms of public presentation in
outdoor areas if I wanted to...<smile>

Hi:
I think I can add a little to this: I purchased a wireless head set for my
mother, as she is hard of hearing from Radio shack it has a transmitter
that plugs into the back of the TV, don't see why this wouldn't work for
stereos, now let me warn you the price was about $100. I also purchased a
transmitter that permits my Victor reader stream to be played through the
FM radio in the car, don't remember the price but wasn't nearly as much as
the TV head set.
HTH,
George R. Marshall

I have a set of bluetooth headphones that let me plug their transmitter
into my computer and then up to around 20m away, the headphones will work,
but they don't have any form of internal input/output, and they only seem
to be able to connect to each other since no other bluetooth devices see
them as such.
I think, in the past you also got a short range radio transmitter which
would let you plug it into the output jack on your computer and then
within something like 50-150m range, you could pick up it's output on a
somewhat limited radio transmission frequency, but wouldn't know where to
look for something like this.
The closest had back in 2005 was effectively, an MP3 player you loaded
music onto, then when you plugged it into your car's cigarette lighter
for power, it would play the music broadcasting it on something like
88.2MHz for you to pick it up internally on the car's radio, and I think
they said it had something like a 15m transmission radius.

David,
I think you are right. I'm wondering if there is something
one could purchase to plug into an auxiliary input on a
stereo that could be successfully paired with the blue tooth
transmitting device?

I believe it can only be received on a blue tooth compatible
device.

I'm looking for some ideas on how to accomplish the
following. I have a USB device that can plug into my
computer that transmits a blue tooth signal. I know I can
pick up a pair of headphones to work with this but is it
possible to pick this signal up around the house on either a
portable A M/FM radio or my home stereo system? If so, what
would I need and what is the process. Thanks in advance for
all input.
Al
