Yes buy a red white rca cord with a head phone jack(3.5mm) 5 bucks.... plug into the red white side to the bottom audio out on video 1 input. Plug the 3.5 mm side into your head phone jack on your phone. Change the input to video1 on the receiver. There are also blue tooth adapters you can buy that transfer a bluetooth audio signal to digital. 20 bucks online. I use spotify through chrome cast on my tv with this receiver, but without a blutooth enable device, you will need a wired connection.
