Works well, but maybe not necessary
By Anon
I got one of these to go with my NR818 and it works well, but I probably should not have bought it. I would think most users of an Onkyo network AVR would put their receivers on their home network, which would include WiFi, and they probably have either an Android device or iPhone/Pad/Pod. That is how I am set up. Because I installed the free Onkyo app (which is very basic but works well) on my phone, I can stream music from my phone via WiFi, making the UBT-1 unnecessary.

Not compatible with the TX 8050
By Jed
Purchased this and was excited about doing things wirelessly from the IPAD and the IPHONE. Only to find out that this is not compatible with my Onkyo TX8050. The stereo does not recognize it. Company should be more clear on what this works with. Waste of time and money.

works great
By RJB
My receiver has two USB ports, a front one and a back one. I keep the adapter in the back USB port and it connects seamlessly to my phone. It's great playing all my internet radio stations and MP3s from my phone thru my stereo.

UBT-1 Bluetooth USB Adapter

Stream Easy with Onkyo's Bluetooth USB Adapter Stream music stored in a cellphone, personal computer, or tablet through your Onkyo network receiver wirelessly with the UBT-1 Bluetooth USB Adapter. Whether you have an iPhone®, an Android device, or another compatible mobile device with Bluetooth capability, streaming music through your Onkyo home theater system is easier with the UBT-1 Bluetooth USB Adapter.

Plug-in, Pair, Play. Just insert the UBT-1 Bluetooth adapter into the front-panel USB port, pair the devices, and select your music. An aptX™ compression enhancement codec restors the natural dynamic range of your audio files. apt-X is a communication format within Bluetooth, and it can carry more high quality sound than normal Bluetooth. With both aptX and the improved bandwidth capability of Bluetooth Version 3.0, you'll be amazed with the sound quality. So far the only products that can send apt-x are Apple Mac Books. So make sure to connect your Mac to the best sound available.

Did you know...? 'Bluetooth' was the code name for the SIG (Bluetooth Special Interest Group) and the name stuck. The name "Bluetooth" is actually very old. It is from the 10th century Danish King Harald Blåtand - or Harold Bluetooth in English. King Blåtand was instrumental in uniting warring factions in parts of what is now Norway, Sweden and Denmark - just as Bluetooth technology is designed to allow collaboration between different business sectors such as the computing, mobile phones and automotive industries. -From the Fast Facts page at Bluetooth.com
