Great wireless audio - But terrible product description at top. This is for running audio from iPhone or any Apple device through wireless home network to your amplifier and speakers. It replaces old and discontinued Apple airport device perfectly. It is not for Bluetooth. If you don’t know what you are looking for that top product description will not help.I have used Apple airport for years to feed wireless audio from iPhones and computers into my high end stereo amp. This does the same. Perfectly integrated into Apple iPhone software. Note that you need an iPhone running OS18 and higher for setup and Apple devices with recent versions of OSX. Immediately available as audio output on all home Iphones and my Mac computers after simple setup.I ran this against my old Apple Airport to evaluate sound. It is just as good, and the Airport has very good audio resolution — That I tested years ago in detail. Absolutely no problem with device, but I do have a strong wireless signal throughout our house.Presently I am using the analog output. It is good. I may hook up optical output to my DAC and then to amp— but as of now I am fine with audio. I am driving a very good amplifier and high end stereo speakers with this system.Nothing through wireless will satisfy the audiophile snob — which I once was. But it is far superior to a Bluetooth connection. We tried that. Forget it. Use wireless if you can. Seamless connections for all the family.Hope they don’t discontinue this product. I bought it now as insurance against death of my 17 year old Airport, which is still working just fine. But for now, this has replaced it. Good luck. It works !

I thought that Belkin was a trustworthy brand...my mistake! Setup was a nightmare. After repeating the setup process over and over, it simply would not work (and I'm a technically minded person, too, so it was not beyond my comfort zone). Then, out of the blue, it suddenly starts working. What? Am not sure how that happened, but okay, although the device should work the very first time when following the setup routine. Next, the sound quality from the optical output was great, but the sound quality through the analog output was horrid. It literally sounded like an old AM radio -- completely unacceptable in this day and age. Come on Belkin, stop lining your pockets and spring for a quality DAC/implementation! The reception of the AirPlay "data stream" (for lack of a better term) was also terrible. It would work just fine (for a while), but then the audio would cut out and back in over and over and over. What the hey? My boss would fire me if I only worked when I felt like it! This device needs to ALWAYS work whether or not it likes it...totally unreliable. Finally, Belkin's customer support is abysmal, to put it mildly (don't get me started). Clearly, this entire experience was not what I paid for -- it sums up to a ZERO VALUE proposition. In all seriousness, Belkin should pay me handsomely for emotional pain and suffering given the wasted hours, aggravation, and frustration that their failed product imposed upon my life. This is a radically subpar device with a faulty setup routine, abhorrent DAC/implementation (for the analog output), completely unreliable reception, and abominable customer service. Cannot recommend that anyone purchase this device for any reason whatsoever. Compared to this device, plain old generic Bluetooth (despite being a lossy format) is totally superior. Stay away from the Belkin SoundForm Connect at all costs. Thank goodness for Amazon's return policy!
