RE: Choosing The Right Receiver

Sorry to be tiresome but I have already pointed out that streaming means a digital stream. An analogue connection is simply "playing to/from". Otherwise we have all been "streaming " since the invention of electrical recording 90 years ago. I mean you wouldn't speak of streaming from a turntable,cassette tape recorder or FM tuner.

So as the OP asked to stream then I would look for a digital solution as that is is what the word means. A wired connection in this context means USB , co-axial etc. The OP clearly appreciates this as he asks for streaming by Bluetooth as an alternative. Bluetooth is an alternative method to digital wired whereas an analogue connection is not.

Had he said instead that he just wants to play music from his computer through the receiver then that would have been different and could include a computer headphone output to analogue input (even if technically it is usually not the optimum solution).
