Receiver guidesTo connect a Bluetooth device to an amplifier, pair your phone with a Bluetooth receiver and plug the receiver into any line-level input on the amplifier: RCA, 3.5 mm AUX, optical, coaxial, XLR, or 1/4″ TRS. Amplifiers with Bluetooth built in skip the receiver and pair directly. Set the phone near 70 to 80 percent volume before raising the amplifier, match codecs at both ends (aptX Low Latency holds near 40 ms), and skip the phono input, which distorts line-level sources. Receivers for this job run $21.99 to $109 in the blafili line.
