Product Review
The Belkin F8Z901 TuneStage for iPods delivers the pristine, high-quality sound that iPod users desire, through a high-end, home stereo environment. Using advanced Bluetooth v1.2 wireless technology, the TuneStage can transmit from a range of up to 33 feet to your stereo, free of the barriers that limit traditional remotes--such as walls, ceilings or windows. This great new innovation from Belkin lets you roam and play your tunes, from virtually anywhere in your home.
Connected through Belkin's TuneStage, your iPod becomes a premier wireless remote, putting absolute control at your fingertips. The TuneStage transmitter plugs directly into your iPod's remote/headphone connector, and requires no batteries, automatically powering on or off with your iPod. You may manually power the TuneStage receiver on or off, which runs via an AC power adapter, while the entire system requires no software installation, and is ready to use right out of the box. This unit features an LED that indicates proper connection and activity, and includes a Gold Series 3.5-millimeter-to-2 RCA stereo cable for easy plug-and-play connection to your home stereo system.
Compatible with any iPod or MP3 player with a headphone/remote connector, the Belkin TuneStage is backed by a manufacturer's 3-year warranty. The receiver can easily fit out of the way, measuring only 6.5 x 1.2 x 4.5 inches (W x H x D), and the transmitter is barely noticeable at 1.65 x 0.5 x 1.5 inches (W x H x D).
What's in the Box Belkin F8Z901 TuneStage transmitter and receiver, 7-foot Gold Series 3.5-millimeter-to-2 RCA stereo cable, AC power adapter for receiver, a user's manual and warranty information.

This transmitter and receiver is perfect for getting your ipod music onto your stereo system without wires or expensive components. The bluetooth signal works well for short range ( the 33 feet seems accurate as outside limit) and in my case transmits clearly through walls to another room. The only reservation is that the transmitter only works with the two pin headsets for ipods. That is, it works with my older Ipod photo but doesnt fit the newer Ipod video.

I received the TuneStage today, from Amazon. Plugged it in both sides (on top of the iPod, and the receiver into an audio pin). Hit PLAY on the iPod and the transmitter automatically connects (pairs) with the receiver. Bada-bing, the iPod is now your remote control. Volume controls, playlist, and all. From unpacking to a remote control in five minutes. It could not have been any easier. Apple should have made this product. And nobody really knows about it.

Sound quality is not 100% I feel, but the unit works well and does great in my bedroom setting. Best results come when the stereo volume is kept relatively low an the iPod is cranked nearly to maximum (best signal to noise).
