I'm assuming you want something that will stream music to your Echo (though I could be wrong, as your post is not easy to decipher).  If so then anything that supports streaming via Bluetooth version 2.1 or greater should work.

You are correct in assuming I would like a device that I could stream music thru the echo.I would also assume any mp3 player with bluetooth I could mate to the echo Would that about sum it up.I thank you for the replies Hopefully that will take care of it.I apologize for my original post I sometimes run off at at the mouth and get carried away
Thanks again

Echo is a stand alone device. You don't need an iPhone or MP3 player to use any of its capabilities. It'll play music, answer questions, control your smart home devices all without being connected to your iPhone or Android.

To setup an Echo you do need to use an iPhone or an Android device. Once that's done, you can remove the app if you like.
