I have a record player I'm currently using a jbl charge 3 as a speaker for, and I really want to upgrade my sound setup because my car is better than my house. The problem is I'm in about a 1200 sq ft house, and there's not a ton of room in any room. Any ideas on how to pimp out an audio setup without too much floor space?

The Bluetooth adapter quality is not really of importance (also, I dont use Amazon, been against them for many years). I merely stated that a consumer receiver with built in Bluetooth is probably not built to the standards of an older unit without it. Its well known that the more "features" they try to shove in consumer gear, the less quality the gear usually is. I dont use bt for quality music listening myself, but I realize quality has improved.

Sure, optical is fine. I just dont see a use for it for most people (maybe their tv?) And I do use optical in the studio although it can cause a lot of issues with bad cables and things not being super clean. Its not rock solid stable like you think, especially in studio use and field recording where stability matters. High quality optical cable is a must in that case.

Also, they only have a record player. Why would they need to dink around with optical?

I was confused why youd recommend surround sound to someone who only mentioned music listening as well. It seemed odd.

Sorry you got offended!
