Title: Convert jukebox into Bluetooth output to link home receiver w/ surround speakers
Post by: NotHandy on February 05, 2020, 03:15:26 am

I would like to connect a bluetooth transmitter to a 70’s jukebox (and bypass the jukebox speakers and/or have them also run at the same time as the surround speakers with a possible a/b switch) and then use the surround speakers that are driven from the home entertainment receiver. Is this possible?
Any ideas greatly appreciated!

I did this with my old jukebox.
I replaced the original amp that didn't work with a home receiver.
I hooked the Jukebox speakers up to the receiver, plugged a bluetooth transmitter into the receiver and picked it up from the big stereo across the room.
Jukebox speakers are always on, and the big stereo speakers are only on when I switch to that Bluetooth input.
