Great bit of kit
Plug and play, what can I say. Replaced a old one that came with a Bose ipod dock I purchased for less than the price of this. Own some quality speakers at a fraction of the cost of new all down to this little gadjet. The neighbours hate me but they have started banging on the wall in time with the drum and bass I like to listen to via this little Bluetooth adapter. They have mastered Chase and Status's boiler room set. I'm made up getting quality sound very cheaply but they get it for free. Some people, eh. Cheek of it

New iPhone and older Bose dock play happily together
The LAYEN i-DOCK worked straight away to connect in iPhone 15 to a Bose Sound Dock 1. My wife groaned when I said I was going to install it, expecting up to an hour of swearing and bad temper - but it just worked. It fits the dock well (I needed to remove the clip-in moulded housing for an iPod nano), and connecting to the phone was a breeze.Good instructions in pretty robust packaging. Arrived as expected.The web page now seems to have sorted out the compatibility list - there was some doubt in earlier versions. It's early days, but I had no problems playing music wirelessly and extend the life of my lovely Bose!

Revived an old sounddock!
Was about to recycle my old Bose SoundDock when I came across this! Extremely easy to use. Just plug into the sounddock, switch on Bluetooth on my phone to pair. Once paired, it worked immediately, converting my ancient Bose Sounddock into modern day Bluetooth-enabled speaker.Minor issues that resulted in a star dropped:(1) Given that my sounddock is very old, I wanted to check if this is the Bose Series 1 which would require a different Bluetooth music receiver that LAYEN sells. In the BS-1 version of this product Bluetooth Music Adapter for the Bose SoundDock Series 1 - LAYEN BS-1 - Bluetooth Receiver Dongle - Wireless Music Streaming Convertor for Bose 1st Generation SoundDock Speaker. Stream Music Wirelessly From Your Bluetooth Transmitting Device; iPod, iPhone, iPad, Smartphone, Tablet, MP3 Player, PC or Laptop to your Bose 1 Docking Station. Bring your stereo back to life! Works with Amazon Echo / Echo Dot, it states that if your sounddock "does NOT have a 3.5mm AUX (headphone socket) at the back, then you need the BS-1.". This does not appear to be entirely correct. Researching a bit more on this, the LAYEN website tells you to check if your sounddock charges up an ipod to determine if it should be using the BS-1 or not. This appears to be more accurate. My sounddock does not have an AUX input but is able to charge up an ipod so I decided to order I-DOCK instead of the BS-1 and it worked.(2) While I could get this I-DOCK to connect to two Bluetooth products at the same time (both products say "connected), it does not appear to switch seamlessly. I could play music on Product1, stop the music, and attempt to play music on the second product, it will show as playing on Product2 but has no music playing from the sounddock. I picked the I-DOCK over the I-SYNC for this feature so was very slightly disappointed I could not get this working.Nevertheless, to be able to revive an old sounddock is still a major plus over the above 2 issues!

Works Well on Hitachi AXM204UK
Very happy to find that this worked for my Hitachi AXM204UK, even though it wasn't listed. Nice, neat little device that just slots in to place and almost looks like part of the sound system.Instructions were clear, but it was so easy to pair you probably won't even need them.Sound came through well too - overall just really happy this worked out so well.

Shame, it stopped working
Absolutely brilliant for 4 days. Initially no background noise as mentioned on other reviews, but then background buzz started on day 3 and then just stopped working on day 4. Shame as simple set up and got my speaker working again.
