Connect turntable to receiver and bluetooth?

[PabloHoney]

Hi all, I'm looking for advice on connecting my turntable to a home audio system already in place in a new house. Here is the situation:

There are in ceiling speakers connected to a receiver in the living room. I plan to have my turntable and phono preamp in another room with its own receiver and speakers. Is there a way to split the audio signal coming out of my preamp to the local receiver and to a bluetooth transmitter so I can play through my local speakers and the in ceiling speakers at the same time?

Thanks in advance.

I would try to split the signal out from the receiver rather than before it. Does it have Tape Out, a second room option speaker output (home theater receivers often do), or a Preamp/Power Amp jumper?

You need amplification for the speakers regardless. Just a bluetooth transmitter alone won't power them.

There are 2 receivers/amplifiers. I just need a way to play through the speakers connected to the turntable and also transmit signal to the other receiver at the same time. The second room output might be a good option. I think my receiver has that. Never tried it before. Thanks for the suggestion.

Just buy a decent switching box and use it to run one or the other. Both at the same time may alter resistance and capacitance loading.
