Problem: Want to use metronome or play music examples in class, but don't want to leave the podium.
Problem: Apple TV / Google's Chromecast is too pricey, and often (in the case of my school anyway) involves many issues with wireless that can mean the IT guys don't like you much.
Problem: Don't like having the device tethered to the speakers with a cord.

Do you already have some sort of audio equipment / speakers in your band room that you want to connect your phone to?  Then here are some possible solutions:

1. A battery powered Bluetooth wireless receiver.  The great thing is that there is both a battery powered option (see pic below) that I use for marching season:


Limited range to 33ft.... but battery powered.  Short range.



These allow you to connect any bluetooth device, such as a smartphone, table, or laptop to the receiver. 

Sweet.

BUT.....Not as cool as this one, that let's up to 5 devices connect at the same time, up to 300 ft!!!!!
