Enjoy Enhanced Sound Quality and Power from a Variety of Music Sources.

Bigger, better sound with no wires!

The Convenience of Bluetooth Wireless Technology
The NX-B02 is a convenient way to enjoy enhanced sound quality and power from a variety of music sources. Built-in Bluetooth wireless technology allows use with Bluetooth-compatible PCs, PDAs and mobile phones to a distance of 5 meters. It uses Bluetooth version 2.0+EDR (Enhanced Data Rate) and supports A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile), which allows the streaming of higher quality audio than previously.

Connect Portable Audio Players
A 3.5mm stereo mini jack is provided, for easy connection of non-Bluetooth portable audio players (MP3 players). This greatly expands listening possibilities and lets people use their favorite audio player.

Dual Speakers with Twin SR-Bass™ Diaphragm

Twin Swing Radiator Bass

Mini jack provided

Dual 1-3/4" full range speakers deliver rich sound. Each speaker also has an SR-Bass (Swing Radiator Bass™) diaphragm. The SR-Bass design uses a "swing radiator" diaphragm that moves by the vibration of the main diaphragm and efficiently increases bass energy. This produces larger sound pressure levels for deeper and stronger bass sound.

Handy Battery Operation
The NX-B02 can be operated by the power from four (4) AA batteries, so it can be used anywhere. Battery life is about four hours with alkali batteries and seven hours with nickel metal hydride batteries. An AC adaptor is also supplied.

2.0 out of 5 stars Great speaker, except when listening with bluetooth., April 26, 2008

By	ctelder - See all my reviews

There is a subtle, high-pitched whine (briefly noted in CNET review) when using bluetooth. It's noticeable enough that you can't stop hearing it and makes listening to music impossible. It sounds surprisingly good, however, when using the line-in (but you could buy something similar, and a lot cheaper, if you don't care about bluetooth). I have a new phone (Blackberry Pearl 8130) and pairing was no problem. I called Yamaha and they were not aware of the problem, although I did have the rep read the CNET review. He said he would talk to the tech guys and get back to me. That was two weeks ago.
I am returning the Yamaha and have just recieved a Parrot "Party"Parrot PARTY Bluetooth® Stereo 2.0 Portable Soundbox. Interestingly, the Parrot sounds very good using bluetooth, but not as good using line-in. I'm keeping the Parrot.

1.0 out of 5 stars High pitched whine ruins it, July 29, 2008

By	Ryan Steckler (San Diego, Ca) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This speaker is great when plugged in via the analog jack. When you're listening in bluetooth mode, however, there is a persistent high pitched whine that makes for an annoying and painful experience. What a tragedy that Yamaha Quality Control let this slide through.
It would be a great product if not for the bluetooth noise.
One star - I don't care how well it works via a hard connection. I bought it for the bluetooth functionality and cannot stand to use it in that mode.

4.0 out of 5 stars Yamaha Bluetooth Speaker, September 23, 2009

I bought this speaker to extend my music to the back porch. The Bluetooth paired with my Sony Bluetooth transmitter and the Yamaha speaker works great on the porch even with the sliding glass door closed. There are some problems with Bluetooth. 1. The speaker receiving the signal through Bluetooth will have a delay of about ten seconds. 2. Most Bluetooth transmitters will pair with eight receivers but the catch is it will only send to ONE AT A TIME. If I have the Bluetooth transmitting to the speakers in the bedroom the Yamaha speaker on the porch will not be sent the signal. I have to turn off the bedroom Bluetooth receiver before the porch unit will receive the signal.
