Hello Kay,
I don't think you have to spend $100 to get a Bose branded Bluetooth Receiver to plug into your Bose Boombox. Below are 2 generic options from www.monoprice.com which will do exactly the same thing, the basic Bluetooth Music Receiver is $19.47 and the fancier version with NFC support is $49.28 and it looks that you can even connect it using an optical cable. This might not be something you have on your boombox, but if you ever get a newer stereo chances are it will have a digital optical input. I think quite often brands like Bose, B&W or others sell these accessories at highly inflated prices and in essence they are identical to the lower cost generic product. Monoprice is a great place for finding inexpensive stuff like cables, adapters and cases. I have all sorts of expensive iPhone cases, but the one I use on a daily bases and which I like the most is the $6 case with belt clip from Monoprice. All their cables have a lifetime warranty and I think pretty much everything they sell has an unconditional 30-day money back guaranty.

For example, I have the Bose Sound Dock 10 which is only sold in Bose stores. It's their top of the line system made specially for the iPhone and other smart phones. It does not come with Bluetooth. Instead it comes with a hand full of adaptors and you drop your iPhone in the slot to connect. I don't like that and my wife after 23 years of being married knows what I like or wouldn't like. So she spent the extra hundred bucks to buy the Bluetooth adaptor. I don't need to connect by sticking my phone in a dock. The sound cock 10 comes with a wireless remote control and I like that for skipping through titles and such. There are a couple of devices out there that will let you plug the adaptor in the head phone jack and there is another peace that connects to an amp and speakers but as I understand it, they aren't cheap at around a hundred bucks. Bose also makes a couple of other systems that is cheaper then the 7 hundred bucks the sound dock 10 costs. IMHO, it would be pretty hard to beat the sound dock 10 though for sound. Not only bass, anybody can do that but for the dynamic range which is what gives music that live sound. ------- Regards, Alan Go Chicago Bears in 2013!

Does anyone know of a Bluetooth adapter that looks like a male head phone jack that I could plug in to an input of a Bose or stereo so songs can be played on that device using Bluetooth rather than having to physically plug my iPhone into the Bose? Any thoughts are welcome. It would have to be a receiver not a transmitter. Hope this makes sense.
