This is the only option that Yamaha YHT 1840 misses. No Bluetooth. Maybe because the Bluetooth system is of inferior quality and is okay for causal listening until the lossless Bluetooth format is introduced. LDAC, AAC, aptX offer great quality compared to A2DP and SBC. However, when this home theatre was designed, the cost to function ratio should have taken a hit and thus they would have excluded bluetooth.
