Polkies,

I am in the process of buying a receiver (2 zone A/B) for my kitchen and outside deck. Can anyone recommend me a Bluetooth device where I can input into one of the analog inputs? I want to stream music from my iPhone to the receiver.

Thanks!

    I would suggest buying a receiver with a Bluetooth radio built-in. There are many available at various price points. Otherwise, the rocketfish adapter with a digital output and AptX technology is about as good as they can get. It costs $40-$50 available at many places, Amazon, Best Buy etc.
