Streaming audio over bluetooth

8 replies · 3,330 views · Started 26 July 2007

Hi all,

I Seem to be believe I read somewhere that the N95 can stream mp3s etc. over bluetooth. If this is the case does anyone know of a device that could stream this to a car stereo, I am not sure whether standard bluetooth car kits do this or if I need something special.

Thanks for your help.

Not really clear what you mean!
Do you have an external input or a B/T enable car stereo?

Sorry to clarify I have a car stereo with an audio input on the back (red/white RCA plugs). I want something to plug into there so that I can transmit mp3s (and also navigation) to my my stereo. I see parrot do a car kit that will do this but I am not in need of a car kit, I do not make calls whilst driving.

Sorry to be pedantic, but, didn't I just post that info above?

You could use the a/v cable that came with the N95 to plug the phone straight into the stereo. Not as elegant as a Bluetooth solution, but cheaper...
