Sure. For example there is the Bluetake Hi-PHONO BT460EX which is
designed for exactly that purpose. The codec used isn't MP3 but rather
SBC which needs somewhat higher bitrates for the same quality but that
usually isn't a problem.=20
The underlying profile supports MPEG (including MP3) as optional codec,
but I'm currently unaware of any implementations other than headphones
(e.g. from Sonorix) for that. Since you're probably speaking German you
might want to have a look at
http://www.heise.de/mobil/bluetooth/db/ and
search for the A2DP-SNK role.
About the subject of sending from your Laptop: Software support for A2DP
is currently not that good, so probably all receivers you'll get will
come bundled with a transceiver to encode and send the stream. I think I
heard that the next version of the Widcomm stack for Windows will
include that support, and I know for sure that there is some rather
experimental code for Linux (see
http://bluetooth-alsa.sourceforge.net/)
that I'm using occasionally to send from my IBM T30 to my Bluetake
i-PHONO BT420.

Which would be, say, about one and a half year ago. ;-)
