Works and sounds great with my McIntosh home stereo.

I wanted to connect my vintage McIntosh home stereo to Bluetooth devices for some time now. After a bit of searching what I found was products with a number of good reviews but the bad reviews were terrible!

I have purchased AudioQuest products in the past and found them be quite good. So when I found the AudioQuest Beetle Bluetooth receiver at this price I jumped on it. Man, am I glad I did. I am very happy with the rich sound my stereo when using the Beetle. I had zero issues connecting to my iPhone or iPad.Read full review

Brilliant, beautiful, and flaky as can be

This seems like a brilliant idea and maybe it was. Why not take something as basically excellent as the Audioquest Dragonfly DAC and add bluetooth and optical toslink inputs? And when it works, you can forgive it anything. It sounds really decent, just like a Dragonfly Black in fact, and at this recently discounted price point, that's almost as good as it gets. When it's playing, it sounds as good as anything you can get for $100 or less. The problem is when it doesn't work, as is all too often the case. This thing is flaky as all get out! There are software issues, and driver issues, and Windows 10 doesn't like it all. My computers are pretty stable, except when this is connected. Then bluescreens are pretty common! The drivers and software need to be updated in the worst way, and since Audioquest has stopped supporting this unit, that may never happen. So, as good as it sounds, it's hard for me to recommend this to anyone. YMMV.Read full review
