We've come pretty far when it comes to technology, but replacing electronics that still work great is a step we aren't all willing to take, which is where the Tivoli BluCon Bluetooth Receiver comes in handy for easily bringing an old stereo into the 21st century.

Connecting to a set via an auxiliary input jack, the Tivoli BluCon Bluetooth Receiver then connects wirelessly to your smartphone or other Bluetooth-enabled device to easily stream tunes without cables. Available in a number of chic wood finishes, the Tivoli BluCon Bluetooth Receiver is super compact, which means it can be tucked away or put on display depending on the design ethos of the room where it resides.

At a price point of around $150, the Tivoli BluCon Bluetooth Receiver is a great way to upgrade existing equipment and bring it up to snuff with the other gadgets in your home.
