Turbox Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 Does anyone know of a Bluetooth device that I can integrate into a home stereo system? For example today, I sometimes connect my iphone to the 3.5mm jack going into an aux input into the back of the stereo so I can listen to music. so rather than doing that, it would me nice to connect the iphone to a Bluetooth device of some kind that will o/p to the aux input on to the back of the stereo. Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schu Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 (edited) many receivers are bluetooth enabled. my SC35 is BT enabled with the addition of a small dongle... which i have. otherwise, can't you connect via your network, as long as your receiver is network capable. Sounds like you are looking for a stand alone unit like "Air" etc for your existing set up? Edited July 26, 2014 by Schu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbox Posted July 27, 2014 Author Share Posted July 27, 2014 My receiver Yamaha RXV2500 is a bit older and doesn't have Bluetooth. don't really want to buy a new receiver just for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let us know how it works for you -- sound quality, reception range, etc. It's something I may want to add to a vintage/DIY setup someday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sancho Panza Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 Can turn Bt on on my iPhone but have yet to understand any advantage. Prolly don't have any compatible device. If I did, what could it do for me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
