The Cobra AirWave is a compact portable music bridge that allows users to wirelessly connect their Bluetooth®-enabled media devices (mp3 players, smartphones or tablets) to their older generation home stereo, car stereo, or standalone speakers. The Cobra AirWave receiver connects to stereo equipment via cabling options that include 3.5mm to 3.5mm (headphone jack) cable, 3.5mm to RCA, and USB to micro-USB. The user pairs their media device to the AirWave unit, which acts as a wireless bridge allowing the user to transmit audio via Bluetooth® to older home or car stereo systems. This wireless connection offers users the freedom to be away from the stereo and control their music from up to 30 feet away. The AirWave can be powered by standard USB outlets or through the built-in Lion polymer rechargeable battery, which supports an impressive ten to twelve hours of music playback. Now, users can combine the compatibility and convenience of today-s Bluetooth®-enabled digital music players with their investment in existing stereo systems at a small fraction of the cost of newer systems. MSRP: $39.95
