BLUETOOTH AUDIO STREAMING
What is a Bluetooth car receiver used for?
The module receives music sent wirelessly by your smartphone
and provides an audio signal that can be used by the compatible
equipment in your setup.
Add Bluetooth to an older setup
A Bluetooth receiver can help modernize an audio
system that does not have a built-in Bluetooth function.
This makes it easier to enjoy your music apps
and audio content from your smartphone.
Bluetooth for Car Audio
Depending on the model and configuration, a Bluetooth module can
be integrated into a setup with an amplifier,
processor, or other compatible audio equipment to add
a wireless music source.
HOW IT WORKS
How does an audio Bluetooth receiver work?
The smartphone connects wirelessly to the Bluetooth receiver.
The receiver then picks up the audio stream and transmits it to the
audio system via the connection provided by the model used.
The connection and power method may vary depending
on the receiver, so it is important to check the specifications
of each product before installation.
USES
A Bluetooth source for your audio system
Music from your smartphone
Connect your phone to the Bluetooth receiver to stream
your playlists, music streaming services, podcasts, or other
audio content to your car setup.
Bluetooth receiver for an amplifier
Depending on the available inputs and the receiver model,
it may be possible to integrate a Bluetooth source into an
amplified setup. Always check connection compatibility
before connecting.
Bluetooth for DSP
Some systems equipped with an audio processor can receive
a Bluetooth source directly or via a compatible
module. Compatibility depends on the DSP and the
receiver used.
Modernize your car audio
Adding a Bluetooth receiver allows you to keep an
existing setup while benefiting from a wireless audio source,
without necessarily replacing the entire Car Audio system.

Bluetooth audio ≠ Apple CarPlay or Android Auto

a wireless audio connection. It does not automatically convert
an existing system into an Apple CarPlay or Android Auto car stereo.
If you are looking for these features, choose a car stereo or
interface that is specifically compatible.
