Many receivers' BT feature are for INPUT, so that say you can play your smartphone songs on it. Consult the manual to be sure.

You can find the manual here

Find page 59 and 120

The unit is both capable of Bluetooth input and output just not at the same time. It also supports MusicCast for Wifi speakers.

If you are running a 5.1 system you can connect a speaker to line level converter to the zone B/surround back speaker terminals. Connect a BT transmitter to that. You can even play the phone in the other room and still have 5.1 in the TV room.

Pairing a receiver with Bluetooth speaker is like connecting a sink faucet to a shower...
Both the receiver and the BT speakers are active output devices. I do understand that sometime there's a desire to have wireless satellite speakers, but that's done using other means.
