BRIDGING THE GAP BETWEEN STREAMING CONVENIENCE AND AUDIO EXCELLENCE
Streaming music directly from your phone to your home audio system via Bluetooth® offers unparalleled convenience.

Whether you have owned a vintage stereo system for many decades, or have a newer system, the MB25 elevates your audio experience by modernizing your setup. Crafted to the highest standards of performance, the compact MB25 transforms your audio system into a versatile hub for enjoying digital music from your smartphone, cloud accounts, and preferred streaming services.
 
MB25 Bluetooth Transceiver can be used to add to Bluetooth streaming to many vintage audio products including this McIntosh MA6100 Integrated Amplifier from the 1970s.
 
Designed as a compact, standalone unit with a relatively small footprint, the MB25 requires no third-party apps for operation, ensuring a hassle-free experience. Functioning as a transmitter/receiver, it boasts Class 1 Bluetooth technology, delivering unparalleled connectivity with audio equipment lacking Bluetooth compatibility. With a transmission range of up to 150 feet (45.7 meters)1 and enhanced by an external antenna, the MB25 guarantees optimal performance for both transmitting and receiving audio signals.
