This is a custom-built 3D device made with parts sourced from Aliexpress. I will upload the 3D file to Thingiverse later this week, so stay tuned if you're interested. The components inside are easily obtainable on Aliexpress, but assembling the device does require basic soldering skills—nothing too advanced, though. The sound quality is surprisingly good, even though it includes preassembled digital-to-analog converter (DAC) boards from China. I also made a black version for my PC, which works perfectly since it has a USB port at the back. My main inspiration was nostalgia for analog VU meters, and I achieved my goal!

Pretty cool system and working especially for how old it is. Found it while cleaning some stuff out, not enough wire to make it a surround system without splicing so not worried about it right now.

Hello All, remember in the late 90s the talking Christmas trees were all the rage? I distinctly remember my friend’s parents hooking up their boom box to the Douglas Fir Christmas tree and playing a cassette tape of The Who - See Me, Feel Me, and it was hysterical!

I wanted to see if I can recreate this jocularity, and found a brand new Douglas Fir Christmas tree on eBay from 1997! It’s my 3rd one, lol. The first one I didn’t realize they made two versions, one that doesn’t have aux in and one that does. First one bought, no aux, sigh. Second one, sensor broke and would only play once and not active after playing. 3rd one works great!

I have an Echo Dot Input device that uses the aux, 3.5mm cable to push Pandora to my old Bose Mini 2 speaker and thought that would work. I connected via Bluetooth on my iPhone to the input device and when I push music the tree isn’t responding correctly you can faintly here the canned music playing, Jingle Bells, when the aux wire is connected and no music from my phone. I then tried an Echo Dot speaker that has aux out and that did push the Pandora music to the tree speaker, but the eyes and mouth do not activate to the music.

The instructions state, “that it will only work using headphone jack, other audio jacks will not work. In this mode a portable CD player or other audio component with a headphone jack will also work.” Being that the two Echo devices aren’t considered to be headphone jacks I assume that is the reason it is not playing as expected.

So my question is there a Bluetooth device that I can sync my iPhone to and output via headphone out using aux cable and the tree will sync and work like the old boom box or is this never going to work because I using new technology vs old technology?
