Tiffin Theater Sound System now Bluetooth

I want to share something I can across today after much searching.
I don't know how long Tiffin has been using the LG DVD Blu Ray with the Theater 5.1 Surround System but it's not Bluetooh. I could not play any of my music apps or any of my stored music off my iPhone. There is a USB port on the front of the player but it does not support IPhone or Android and there is no Bluetooth like the dash radio has.
Until Today!
A quick stop at Best Buys and $40 later it is now Bluetooth. Simple 5 minute hook up and it streams Sound Cloud,Amazon and Sirius plus my stored music over the coachs system the same way it will over the dash radio from my phone. Plus it is wireless and as long as I am in 50' of the coach it still connects. I also have the WiFi adapter for my Wally but the music apps are limited to Dish Music and Pandora which I have found useless.
The device is made by Aluratek, Universal Audio Reciever and Transmitter # ABC01F. It is about the size of a match book. It connects into the RCA in jacks on the back of the player. You select AUX on the player. Open up Bluetooth on your phone and connect.
Happy Camper here! There are just some days I just want to listen to music.

This would be great for that. It has a receive and transmit switch to use for BT speakers and headphones.

Just wanted to confirm that we have the same setup as we purchased a 2019 Open Road 32SA and have been struggling with a solution to B/T via the entertainment system rather than the Kenwood in dash setup. I assume this was pretty much plug and play? Looks like another option Best Buy has is this: https://www.bestbuy.com/site/rocketf...?skuId=9976103
Thanks for posting on your fix. This just may be the path we take to listen to music.

Went to Best Buy and got the Aluratek B/T receiver unit for $29. Came with the RCA jacks, hooked it up and went to "AUX" on BluRay player and got music off my iPhone via B/T. Two things I noticed 1) the receiver does not charge off the connection via RCA jacks, so will have tu use a 110 vac USB plug to continually power / charge the receiver using one of th outlets in entertainment bay. 2) Not the best audio quality, bit laggy / scratchy at times, but hey, its a whole lot better than what I had to start with!

I just plugged it into the oulet in the cabinet.I'm also surprised about the sound quality.Perhaps it could be an anjustment on your phone or the speaker adjustments on the receiver itself. Mine is working great with no lagat all.
