Quick question - hoping someone can tell me if PCM3.0 includes Bluetooth? + is it possible to strem music via Bluetooth on PCM3?

Hi Dave,

PCM 3.0 does include Bluetooth (well mine does anyway, I think it depends if you have PCM 3.0 with or without the telephone option), but it doesn't allow you to stream music anyway. If you read the manual provided it does actually suggest that you can however, if you pair a phone and try to enable the AUX-BT function (this is what allows you to start the Bluetooth Streaming Function) it doesn't work. Shame really as I really wanted that function. The Universal input is really good though... You can use it for iPod connection, USB media, and a traditional 3.5mm jack auxiliary input.

Hope this helps,

Steve

PCM 3 only includes Bluetooth if the phone module was specced (separate item on the options list). I wouldn't expect music streaming to work unless the universal audio option was also ticked, and then only maybe - I have never tried it as if I am playing music I figure I may as well charge the phone and be able to use the console to control it...

Is it possible to retrofit the phone module?
