How to Blue Tooth your AV receiver, I use Car Stereo Marine adapters with great results, They are Heavy Duty and will last for many years..

AND

2020 BLUETOOTH ADAPTER VIDEOS...

2020 HIGH END Bluetooth receivers.......

 NOTE.... Test the voltage on your AC Adapter, if it is much over 14.9V then don't use it. I could shorten the life of your BT Receiver
UPDATE ----- Nov 25 2018
Here are links to the 3 Bluetooth Receivers that I use and recommend. These units are not cheap but will give you many years of service.

ATTENTION CANADIAN SHOPPERS you can now get the Fusion BT100 and JL Adapter on Amazon.CA

Those designers were really thinking when they put those small amp power outlets on the back. Clever people back then! Awesome video, thanks!

I'm glad that you went step by step instead of a sped up version like most are and you are left missing information

I have AVR2000...love it...had it for years...I never turn it off...only on moving day. Never had a problem...but, I bought it back in the '90s...QUALITY!

This worked great on an older Pioneer from the 70's which I love to use. We could never afford one back then and now to stream to it is a joy. Thank you for spreading your knowledge. You have a very easy to understand of teaching as well
Thank you again !

[vincentchato]

Love the older equipment 70 80s that stuff is rock solid. And them old school speakers, hitting hard.

[joshhartman]

I had never heard anyone call them a wall wart. Thank you for that gift.

[TheFlyingBusman]

Been there, done that. For those feeling technical it’s nice to integrate a Bluetooth module into something so it’s all internal. I have done a few items like this including a neat little technics shelf system.

Wow did exactly what you instructed per your video now I have music in my garage. Thanks! I'm like you I have an old Pioneer with some old ADS speaker (that i just love) and now I can Bluetooth music to it. Thanks again love your video! Jake.

I connected my bluetooth first to a Pioneer graphic equalizer and this one to my vintage audio receiver Pioneer SX-1080, with 4 big tower speakers. The resulting sound from my cellphone in spotify music is awsome.

Wish I found this video before buying a new receiver.Thanks for the video

[hoosierdaddy]

I have a old 85 Pioneer receiver with hard wired Bose 101 outdoor speakers. I can`t wait to do this and thanks so much !

Just found 2 old school Sony home stereos that my wife's dad had and wasn't even on here looking to see if I could hook my phone to them and this video popped up. Crazy but sweet

I recently purchased an Ifi Zen blue, blue tooth DAC for $129, not as cheap as the unit you are talking about. If you are concerned with sound Quality this unit is a good choice. Gives you all the bluetooth codecs and get really good quality sound 32 bit 96khz . And I use the same Samsung Galaxy S7. Sound detailed without all this wiring hassle.

[MrRobuz]

I still love my Sony stereo receiver even if it's getting old. It looks like in the long run I would go with the Harman Kardon since I have a lot of USB 5-volt supplies.

[deirdrefitzgerald]

Thank you for this! Really looking forward to upgrading! And and extra thank you for suggesting using the spare phone as a TuneIn Radio command center. Doing this immediately. Best...D

[jamespitts]

Great video. I have and Orion reciver 400eatts and that thing beats any "modern" stereo.

[ambernilsson]

Thank you for this info! Very useful
And the highlight of this video was you mentioning x-96 (listened since they began in mid 90s when. I was in jr.high) but I actually yelled out "hell ya!" Been missing X-96, SLC and even Washington. So thank you for making a music buff day on many many levels!

[laurencemarks]

MUCH MUCH easier if you crimp one end of the barrel connectors to the wall wart leads before measuring. Then you can simply insert the voltmeter probes into the other ends for confirming polarity. You don't need three hands that way.

I did something almost identical to this with my antique (1967) Magnavox console stereo. However, my setup adds a stage to address an irritating problem I have with many portable devices - a noticeably weaker audio signal when compared to other audio sources, like a tape deck, CD player, tuner, or record player. To deal with this, I've added a TEC TC780-LC line level booster between the Bluetooth module and the AUX (tape-in) connections of the stereo. Both the Bluetooth receiver and thd line booster are powered from a switched AC outlet I wired in. Not the most elegant solution, but both the BT receiver and the line booster are installed on the back panel of the stereo, hidden from view but easily accessible. There are no permanent modifications; the external hardware can be removed and the internal modifications can be reversed easily, all in less than an hour.
