After that, it's a matter of pairing the Gateway with a stereo Bluetooth cell phone or a Bluetooth adapter for an audio player for transmitting. We paired our Music Gateway with the LG VX9400, and pairing went quite smoothly. When we played the music from the phone, it was instantly streamed to our home stereo and we were rewarded with wonderful stereo quality music. As a bonus feature, we could control the music remotely from the phone. Then we went and switched the Gateway from Transmit Mode to Receive Mode so we could broadcast music from the home stereo instead. This required us to get up and press the multifunction button manually--while this isn't too much of a hassle, it would be nice if there was a wireless way to do it. Then we paired the Music Gateway with the Kyocera Stereo Bluetooth Headset with Pendant Controller to receive music from the home stereo. Again, the pairing went great, and we were able to receive tunes from the home stereo wirelessly via the stereo Bluetooth headset.
Overall, though the initial setup took some effort, we were ultimately rewarded with a wireless way to stream music to and from our home stereo system. We only wish there was a wireless way to switch between Transmit and Receive modes.
