Aside from the analog Line-in physical connection, is there a way to connect a CD player wirelessly  to the A6 speaker?  I like the A6 sound a form factor, and I do stream from Deezer and so forth, but I still have a large CD collection I'd like to continue using.  Thanks.

Hi and welcome to the Forum.

How about using something like this connected to the output of the CD player?

Thank you.  That seems helpful.  I was so focused on looking for a WiFi transmitter that I didn't even consider the latest BT could deliver a CD-quality stream.

If you don't want to use some of these cheap Bluetooth transmitters you could use a higher quality wireless solutions like e.g. Denon professional series:

DN-202WT Transmitter:

Thanks, TWG.  That looks like a good option, too.

Does anyone know if the Beoplay  A6 supports Bluetooth aptX? Interestingly, it doesn't state that in the English site, but it does in the Danish site.  Thanks.
