Along the lines of the previous post, we plan to replace the receiver with a newer model. The house is already wired for roof mounted speaker sound, so the audio out is already set up.
I would like to be able to play music on a PC in the office, and have it somehow enter the receiver and play over the roof mounted speaker system. This would allow me to control to the music from the PC, and have the sound come out of the existing system.
We will also buy a Smart TV, and would like to try to run the sound through the receiver so it comes out the roof mounted speakers.

Can anyone suggest a receiver which can accomplish those two things. Running the TV through the receiver sounds pretty standard, but I'm not sure if the ability to control the music via a desktop PC (perhaps through bluetooth, or something wireless) is feasible. We want a "starter" model receiver more than a super high end device. My music files are mostly mp3 files, of "standard" quality, so I doubt we would be able to enjoy super high precision receiver transmission, a more basic system will be fine.

Thanks for any suggestions.
