I'm not an expert on this but I believe their to be devices around which take a signal from a bluetooth device such as an Iphone and will plug into the line in of an audio system, speakers and so on, I've seen reviews of them.
as for myself? Well I'm going to get a pair of dedicated bluetooth speakers, not saying that one approach is better than the other but that's what I'm doing. As for needing sighted assistance to set up bluetooth devices? Well that's a bit of a funny area really, I all the bluetooth devices I've ever set up with my Iphone have been clearly identified by the phone so I've just had to confirm them and - in some cases - type in a pairing code on the Iphone which I've known in advance.
