I plugged a $15 Bluetooth receiver into my 11 year old stereo receiver and it works pretty well. The 30-pin iPod connector built into it is not seeing much use these days however.

I've got this tiny device that plugs into those 30-pin connectors to make them Bluetooth, really nice solution to utilise redundant tech (originally bought it for a 2015 Maserati that couldn't play music through its Bluetooth sigh talk about shitty consumer experiences).

But yeah, I'm a massive believer in keeping things un-integrated. Need a feature, but a component and plug it in
