I can't quite find the right forum, so I'm plopping this here

I recently purchased the Bose Wave Music System IV and would like to make it bluetooth capable in order to play music from my tablet and/or phone thru the Bose speakers.

I've searched everywhere for a decent priced Bose Bluetooth Audio Adapter, but to no avail. The starting price for the Bose adapter is $150 and it just skyrockets from there.

Can someone suggest a good, cheaper alternative?

I think (based on a quick look) that one uses an optical audio connection, but not sure which one.

9. Some years back I bought a Belden wi-fi adapter for my home setup. It's still working fine

and I paid 35 bucks for it at WalMart. (this adapter plugs into any USB port and provides good
connection from one side of my apartment to the other)
