Best Bluetooth Transmitter for Vintage McIntosh?


I want to stream music to [wireless] Bluetooth enabled speakers from my McIntosh 4300V receiver, but I am overwhelmed with researching this whole thing.  I have looked at Etekcity, Avantree, Miccus, APTX HD, Esinkin, and Aluratek, but the emphasis is is always on Home Theater, Cell Phone, or other devices.  Can someone tell me what is the very BEST transmitter I should buy and what output jacks to hook it up to.  I would rather not use the headphone jack, if possible.  Using the headphone jack requires an adapter and I would rather go with RCA phono jacks from the back of the receiver.  Top quality vintage MAC equipment demands the very finest available wouldn't everyone agree?

The McIntosh 4300V has the capability to send signals to three sets of wired speakers. I do feed analog sound to speakers in the immediate areas downstairs using two of the outputs, but would like to extend that capability upstairs and outside using wireless speakers in a stereo set-up (L&R), which I would have to buy. I do not intend to use them to stream music from the internet or a computer - just from the MAC. My source is XM Radio, fed through the AUX input jack(s). I changed my transmitter after analyzing the best bluetooth transmitters and I am presently using an old Acoustic Research (A/R) AW871 set up that sends signals from the MAC using 900 mhz, but with lots of static and very limited distance for that third pair and would like to buy a better transmitter and employ Bluetooth technology.
