The receiver/headphone end died after a couple weeks of usage. It no longer recharges, even with other mini USB cables. I’m in the process of boxing back up to return. I bought a Sony to replace it which is working well.

Sound quality was fine for me, and so was volume – had to turn up my TV input, but it was plenty loud (probably depends on what kind of headphones you use). As far as range, I walked about 30 feet through two rooms, and had no problem.
Dealbreaker for me was LAG with audio!! I tried to use this with TV while exercising, and there’s a 0.5 second lag that is intolerable if you’re watching video. Might be okay if you’re just listening to music. No adjustments possible with device, nor any warning.
Only used for one day before returning, so no comment on longterm quality – certainly feels cheap, I wouldn’t expect much. Too bad there’s so little available on the market. My backup plan is now to get an FM transmitter, sound quality will be reduced, but should be no problems with lag.

This is a good price and the concept is well thought out. The execution is lacking in one huge way.
First of all, it is a great idea to have the bluetooth audio broadcaster be able to plug into ANY audio jack. Very universal and works with any audio device where you can plug headphones.
The bluetooth receiver is a decently small size and any headphones – in my case my iPod earbuds, plug nicely. I used it today running on the treadmill and the volume was excruciatingly low even when turned all the way up. I could not hear most of the audio while running in the gym.
This totally defeats the purpose. You cannot increase the audio to be able to hear dialogue/lyrics. To get an idea of how low the sound is… the maximum volume the bluetooth receiver is capable of receiving is just slightly above 1/2 the max volume on the iPhone 3G.
(Note: my iPhone was on MAX volume output and was only broadcasting at about the 1/2 max level.)
