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!
I'm glad that you went step by step instead of a sped up version like most are and you are left missing information
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 !
Thank you.
Those designers were really thinking when they put those small amp power outlets on the back. Clever people back then! Awesome video, thanks!
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.
Love the older equipment 70 80s that stuff is rock solid. And them old school speakers, hitting hard.
I Agree With You Mate!
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.
I had never heard anyone call them a wall wart. Thank you for that gift.
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 !
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.
One of my first installations I mounted the BT module in the Stereo. Worked well but I had poor range. I took the module out and mounted it on top of my receiver.. Much better range (just a few feet, but no more cutting out when I move from room to room)
Thanks for your comment....BB23
Awesome! I never knew about these devices and to hook it up like that is so easy. I'm definitely going to do this to my workshop stereo, great video sir
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!
WOW! Nice to hear I made your day. I moved back to SLC last year and found that X96 has sure changed, I found cousin Brad and the crew on 103.1 The Wave, they are playing some killer tunes. This video is a bit dated and you may want to check out this one. Bluetooth has come a long way. ruclips.net/video/8AjZPbF8W24/видео.html
Thanks for the kind words... Cheers my friend.
Wish I found this video before buying a new receiver.Thanks for the video
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.
Yes I had a low pre out when using a few of the BT units. On My Marantz I use one of my ART pre-amps. to boost up the HK unit Iam using. Great comment.
I have one of those crosley stereos that came with bluetooth. I hooked up my sony mp3 walkman to it and it paired fine. The problem is the volume control on my mp3 will not work on this stereo. I can select and play songs without a problem but no volume. I have to use the stereo itself for volume. The stereo has an aux setting and red and white rca connections in the back. My question is...will I have better luck using a bluetooth transmitter rather than the bluetooth that came with the stereo? Will it be a stronger signal in some way?
I'm curious - I have my entire music collection on my iMac computer. Is there a way I can connect the bluetooth in iMac to connect to a device connected to my AV/Amp using a bluetooth receiver?
It would seem to me you should be able to connect to the AV/Bluetooth device just like it was a set of BT headphones as far as the AV/Receiver was concerned.
…....great stuff !!!!! I absolutely love all the ‘old school’ stuff ❤️ Been watching a few of your videos recently & was that chuffed with them I just had to subscribe & hit the bell for alerts when you post more stuff. Keep up the thoroughly decent work fella 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Very nice of you to say and thank you so much for your support... Cheers
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
It figures, the JL MBT is out of stock, just like my luck, always out of stock. you got me excited over this, I want to get back into home audio again.
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
These units are great. If you have an older hot tub with a stereo. Make it Bluetooth you’ll love it.
awesome and so simple . thanks so much for the video👍
Just the thing I been looking for thanks
Yay, you answered all my questions. Great video, Thank you.
I'm assuming you soldered together the two leads of a 75 ohm coax transformer and are some how using it as an antenna or what is it exactly you're doing there ?
i need to do something similar with my Denon 1803, i wonder if there is now finished more compact products with those results.
Nice I’m into the old receivers myself I’m Definitely going to Bluetooth mines as well thanks for the video keep up the good work
Cool, thanks, have you checked out any of my newer BT videos?
Great video. I have and Orion reciver 400eatts and that thing beats any "modern" stereo.
Cool vid. Thanks. You took the time to explain everything involved in the process
Your welcome
Can I direct tv audio to Denon aux and bluetooth listen to tv on my stereo speakers? That would be great! Thanks.
Excellent video very helpful thanks
I love the video and I love old school Denon
Trying to go the opposite way. Have a speaker system in back yard with bluetooth receiver. Works great if you use phone to send content. I want to send content from receiver into BT transmitter and into yard speakers. Bought a transmitter w RCA ins on Amazon, but no volume. Then added a small amp, but seems to overload. Would there be an issue matching low level power?
What BT transmitter and pre amp did you get?
Nice video I've been thinking about doing this with an old receiver and Bose 601 speakers that I have in storage, now I see it done so thanks. I can hear my stero now, "I'm backkkk" lol.
Go back through my Everything Bluetooth Playlist, you will find some up to date Bluetooth receivers..
Rock on!
I jus pulled out my ‘71 Sansui G-5700 receiver that I would love to make bluetooth. After a lil cleaning and lubing it Still sounds like new! I will employ your technique asap and report! I recently bought a gadget to make my HD TV bluetooth. It actually works two bluetooth headphones simultaneously. And, the sound is crisp, but it’s not in stereo! Hopefully your technique will accomplish that for my classic receiver as well as for my 10+ yrs Sony STR-DE197.
hey saw your video last week,went on line and bought MBT-RX JL AUDIO.
for my power sourse useing,,SaGemcom ,model5006dm1200050

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.
Yes, that is another way to bluetooth. Cheers.
Excellent tutorial. Very well explained. Thank you...
Yo great vid man love the way u talk
Bonus points for X-96! Todd Nukem is a really cool guy. He comes into my shop on a regular basis. I'm going to have to rig this up on my receiver. Thanks!
Been an X96 listener since 81(KCGL/seagull Provo?) when they were only on at night. Now I live in NW Washington, so I use TuneIn to "tune in".
Here is a short tape of X96 when they went part time for a while..ruclips.net/video/ZAeH9KW7TwQ/видео.html
Great comment. Now Im home sick :)
Great video. Good Tutorial by the way. You said that You're home now sick. I hope you are feeling better and get back fully recover to your daily activities.
I am sick at home, real bad cold.. But I meant home sic for SLC. Born and raised in Sugar House (Parleys Way) ..
Geez I need to lay off the NyQuil.
@@breakerbroke23 Get feeling better! I was pretty close to there on 17th & 17th. What a great neighborhood. I'm in Kaysville now. It's a bit too conservative for me, but close to work.
I lived next to Blue Cross Blue Shield building and 2 buddy's of mine lived within a block of Shop and Go.. hahaha. Small World, take care.
I was watching this upload as I really want to bluetooth one of my old amps and by chance got interupted at 13.48, just got back to you tube and if you look:-) I wondered what the hell I had been watching!! even my 87 yr old mum laughed:-))
thanks so very much im going to do it now,,greetings from Netherlands
nice and very interesting !!! very cool !!! thankyou
That's 12v adapt can plus in the wall input ?
I like your video, but a chest mounted phone clip my be cool for the way you move around your bench. Keep em coming!
Great clear info thanks for making the video . I have a few 12 volt adapter's spare . I will look up the model you use , am also considering the Pure receiver as it has 24 bit capability. I like the radio much more these days myself and the internet has many stations .
Great vid. I have a lot of the same era equipment. Adcom, NAD, B&O, Nakamichi, Denon, Advent, Snell, etc. Kids these days don't know what they are missing.
Right on
I have a Yamaha hook up to big technics speakers
Got Bluetooth USB adapter off eBay works great with rca cables
Nice detailed setup video, BTW, I have the exact same Denon and Ir's been bulletproof for me.
When we moved from Washington state to Utah, I sold and donated alot of my audio collection, I gave away ALL of my AV receivers except this Denon, when I sold AV gear during the 90s I liked the sound of Denon more than the other brands we sold. ( for 2ch stereo). Thanks for your comment..... BB23
What about output to a bluetooth speaker for surround sound?
Hey bro that is pretty cool 😎👍 thanks for your video 👍
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.
Esto es fenomenal felicitaciones
@@alfredoenriqueecheverria2146 Translate
Great idea. Thanks!
Thanks for the video
I have Bose lifestyle 48 where I have 5 cube speakers and an amplifier DENNON, all are to be connected with wire .
how can I concvert this to wireless system including speakers ? kindly advise e
As far as I know of, you cant do that.
Usually I will put the blue tooth leads on cd/dvd/or anything with a high-end processing. Phono and tape just don't seem to sound that good especially when you have audio file grade equipment and you can hear the difference.
Thank you you just saved me $100!
That’s hella cool bro 👍👍👍
Great video excellent demonstration I want to go to the opposite direction I have a pair of blue tooth capable hearing aids and I would like to be able to send the audio from my receiver like you're done on until I would like to send that over bluetooth to my bluetooth hearing aids the question is can that done please advise
Hello,
Try this .. ruclips.net/video/H0uL3kbLXz0/видео.html
Pretty cool, thanks for posting
Used a head phone lead connected Bluetooth Unit. Works well and simple setup to headphones.
Thank you for the video :) Made me look to the back of my AV. had a couple power outlets so I can connect an old phone adapter to a Bluetooth receiver with usb :)
Good job.. Rock on. BB23
I know I’m a bastard and I’ll tease you about shit but I still like your video, it taught me some things.
I got a vintage Technics stereo receiver and I love the sound and old school features but all my music is on my phone atm.
Thanks for the video bud!
Thanks a lot for your video appreciate it
Was just wondering how I could run up Wi-Fi through my stereo for my TV looks like I got her done now thanks I'm an old-timer to but I like the new stuff :-)
Can I use your method of creating Bluetooth to connect to Sirius XM streaming from smart phone to an older receiver like a denon avr 1804?
Yes. I do that when we have house partys.
I have three sets of ceiling mounted speakers all wired to a denon integrated network AV receiver. Currently running off a Control4 system. If I follow this setup would the music automatically play on all speakers and is there a way to select the speakers?
If you add the BT receiver to the Denon it will play through all speakers hooked to it. IDK anything bout the Control 4 system so I cant say how that would work.
hello good morning I would like to to find out if there is any way that I could get some parts for my Sony 2-channel receiver it is blowing for a while now and I'm trying to fix it back
Google the part numbers
You sir have the knowledge that will let you thrive in a zombie apocalypse. LOL. Thank you so much for your videos. My component system is from the seventies that I got brand new back then and now I can stream to it. I think most people will never know what the smell of a tube system warming up is like. LOL!
Thanks for your kind words. Check out this better system, Bluetooth gets better over the years. Here is the best way to go if you want the best sound . This stuff is always changing.ruclips.net/video/7558yMhj12k/видео.html
I just use those portable rechargeable bluetooth transmitters/receivers and I love them you can take them anywhere and don't need to connect any wires the one I use is by Tio Tronics or something like that, and it's great I just use the aux out to rca.
If you are using the 3.5 mm headphone jack you are not getting proper signal impedance, you will get audio but not clean signal as compared to a real RCA line level.
I dont get it, so should i tape record using the phono input?
very good video breakerbroke23, I'll be using this setup for my old Pioneer and Kenwood units.
Good going "Ace". Thanks for watching....BB23
WOW THIS WAS GREAT.👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Awesome thank you for the idea.
first of love all the info, I have a Denon AVR-3803 that I am using to hook up zen blue all ports produce no sound accept the phono port witch is already powered so I cant use that any suggestion?
I have never seen an AUX or CD input go bad, you may want to check your input settings. Have you tried a Tape input? And yes you are correct, the phono input is way to sensitive as it already has a preamp and RIAA equalization.
Hi I want to run my TV through my house amplifier. But is there anyway I can run my speakers wireless through the amplifier so no wires are seen from amp to speakers and enjoy what I am watching through the system thanks.
You need to have a BT Transmitter on your house amplifier, and you would need some BT powered speakers. You may have latency issues while watching TV as well.
I have an old Sony reciever with surround sound. I see you selected the Karmon as the best selection for adding bluetooth. Does this come with the AC or do I have to add the 12v as you described in the video. I am searching for the best way to add bluetooth without buying new systems. The two I have work great but as you said I've completely moved from cassette and cds. There are a few of each still around in attic but the players are gone. Thank you for the video and explanation.
I actually watched another of your video and ordered the transmitter and reciever to add. Thanks for the info
Question RE Yamaha RX -v2600 --I tried to Bluetooth this receiver exactly as you instructed using Aluratek Bluetooth transmitter to my Bluetooth Cowin headset-will not Work ??? Suggestions??? Thanks
If you are steaming from phone to stereo Receiver then you need a BLUETOOTH receiver and not a Transmitter
Nice!!! Thanks!!!! Kansas!!!!
Thank you, Jack Black!
Ty for this very cool
How can i extend the BT signal another 4 or 5 meters?
i have solar batteries in the garage managed by a BMS that sends all the info (cell voltages,amps, resistances,Ah ) out to my cellphone inside the house via BT, but the signal stays short a couple of meters from where i sit.
Bluetooth is a radio, I would try moving the BMS either and or... Up higher, away from an AC outlet and in wall wire, add an external antenna to the BMS. Problem is that the BMS has electrical interference all around it, wires in/out and physical blockage of signals of the garage and home walls electrical wires, as well as wireless devices in your home. Lots to deal with and sounds like a fun project, cheers and good luck.
nice im working on my pioneer elite...thanks totally cool
good information thank you
Hello, Very good information some of which I have been trying to figure out for a couple of years. I take it from what you are saying that I can take an old non service cell phone and use it as a wi fi connection to my now blue toothed stereo?
That is what I want to do. I have a two room shop where while I am working I like to listen to Pandora. I have already gone through two different cheap "bluetooth speakers". I want to be able to click on a switch and have Pandora. I have wire connected speaker station in the one room and the other speaker in another room. The wi fi router is in that room also. I don't want to have to leave my active cell phone there as I move around the shop (signal drops in and out) but would love to have a way the Pandora could be independent. So is there a way to do that? Would an old inactive cell phone with bluetooth be able to be dedicated to this alone (battery is shot but I could leave it plugged in to its charger) and have my old house stereo (which has the wattage I need) with the blue tooth receiver pick up my Pandora. It is not even critical that it be stereo as it is a shop environment but I do want the speaker in each room so I can hear it at reasonable sound levels.
I always thought the inactive cell phones went 'dead' except for the 911 feature? Also will these receivers operate the new longer range 2.1 bluetooth (50 feet I believe in optimum conditions)?
This would be a great answer to my problem if it is possible. Thanks again for a needed video. Doug Thompson
Douglas Thompson you could go a lot simpler if the old stereo has an input jack and the old phone has a headphone jack. Just plug the phone into the stereo using an audio cable. Then as long as you have WiFi you can play Pandora over the phone through the speakers.
Thx for the info and I subscribed 😎
Thank you.
Great to look at your video!
I live in PA!)
We just moved out of Port Angeles (PA)
Thanks for watching.
Thanks for this video. I have some old KEF speakers and Yamaha receiver and I was going to give them away because I didn’t think I could connect with my new Samsung tv. Now I’ll just use your hack and skip buying a new sound bar. :)
I would not use BT for what you want to do. IMO, I would take audio from your tv, and plug into an AUX or Tape input to your receiver.
You will need a 3.5nn to RCA cord to do this. Plug the mini 3.5 jack to your tv's audio output and plug the male RCA's into a AUX or Tape in. Doing it this way will give you MUCH better audio..... BB23
Like This..www.samsung.com/in/support/tv-audio-video/how-to-connect-audio-output-cable-in-samsung-smart-tv/
Use a Cable like this... amzn.to/2nJBJAw
WOW thanks for the help and it should be much easier.
So I hooked up my system like you said but I do not have volume control on my TV remote. If I used BT would I gain volume control on my TV remote?
Check the manual for the TV, Do you have an audio output that can be controlled.
Im going to try to do what you are trying to do in the morning on my new LG 65". Both BT and audio out to my receiver.
What is a wall wort
great stuff. could a person add a bluetooth range extender like the miccus rtx 2.0 to this setup? Also...in an outdoor setting, how far would the range be with and without a range extender.thanks
Yes the RTX would be a good choice for the long range you want. Guaranteed range through wall etc ? NO. Every home is different because of walls wiring and so on. Still worth a try.
Real easy to hook up, basically the same way as in this video except the AC adapter plugs in the unit and makes a simpler install.
Cheers.
I know it's an old video but greetings from Sequim none the less!
I sure do miss Sequim, I lived on 101 between Sequim and PA.
Cheers
Thank you very much Sir.I have a kenwood av reciever.Hope to try your method.
Thanks for watching, here is a link to a more modern and simplified way to BT you Kenwood.
ruclips.net/video/BDHeloWPVtk/видео.html
JLAudio states the current draw on this unit is: 20 mA (at idle) / 32 mA (at full output)
Thanks.
I have some awesome late 70’s towers design acoustics. Don’t really wanna wire them to a receiver anymore. Is there a Bluetooth kit there can somehow hook hese things up to? Maybe not anymore but when I was a teenager, they were awesome.!
I have one of these... S.M.S.L SA300 HiFi Digital Amplifier amzn.to/3PvCJV7 ... It works very good and have had no issues with it, it also has a mono sub out!
I use mine in the garage.
I still have Cambridge Soundworks stuff it is great and made like a rock.
Great video sir, helped me alot :) i`m a big user and fan of the old seperates myself, there`s just no better sounding hi-fi, especially for us dinosaurs still listening to vinyl!
Haha,true that my friend.... Cheers
What about hdmi? Can it be done on any receiver?
I got the Logitech one, works freakin awesome!
Except it over powers any other Bluetooth device near by I have to unplug it to use my headphones
How about making a phone call on the celly?
Just ordered the jl audio on ebay now i need the 12v transformer. Any suggestions?
Any wall AC Adapter that is rated 12v at 500ma or more will work just fine. While your at it, get you a PAC Line Driver as well. Check out his video to kick it up a notch.. ruclips.net/video/OcJzLM7b8GQ/видео.html
Well worth the upgrade.
The best one is a Phillips unit that has optical out, APTx, and a nice DAC. It costs 30 bucs. I did it years ago. Cheers
cool, thanks.
