A:AnswerRegarding the 2nd part of your question: I cannot speak with certainty, but this could be part of a new corporate movement to get people to move more in the hopes of fighting the obesity pandemic.
A:AnswerThe SoundLink Mini accepts up to stereo audio only. You can't send a 5.1 soundtrack over a 3.5mm connection (the Auxiliary input) anyway. Your sound card is sending only the two front stereo channels through that connection to the SoundLink Mini.
What you need to do is either select the stereo soundtrack of the movie (many modern movies lack this), set your sound card to stereo output so that it down mixes the audio, or use something like VLC to play the video back and have the software down mix the audio.
A:AnswerHi there PTW!
Thank you for the question. Yes, the SoundLink Mini will work with Alexa using a wired connection. The routing of audio should go from the headphone jack of your Alexa device to the Aux port on the SoundLink speaker. Hope that helps!
Take care.
A:AnswerHi Dave,
It sounds like an analog mixer is exactly what you need. An example of a small multi-input mixer would be model: BEH Q802USB. This should allow you to mix the volume levels of the microphone and iPhone connections to your taste. You would need to adjust the volume of the individual channels of the mixer, the master output and then the volume of the SoundLink Mini. We hope this helps.
A:AnswerHi Ricky,
Compared to the SoundLink Color, the SoundLink Mini will provide a bigger and fuller performance, with better bass response. The SoundLink III can be played much louder and overall is our best performing Bluetooth speaker. You may want to take a listen to them in-store to compare them and find which is best for you. Thank you!
A:AnswerHi Warren,
The included power supply with the SoundLink Mini speaker is compatible with 100-240V, 50/60Hz. You would need either a standard AC adapter, or a replacement AC clip from our technical support team. They can be reached at 1-800-380-4831 and are available 8:30am-10:00pm M-F, 9am-7:00pm Sat EST. Thanks!
A:AnswerI'm not sure if you have a bad connection if you are using aux. input to connect your devices instead of Bluetooth. I use mine to connect to my laptop through aux cable. The bass isn't as deep when connected via cable. It could also be the cable itself. Quality actually does matter when using aux. cables. I notice a difference when I am using an aux cable I got from the dollar store and one that I got from BB. The overall sound quality is better using the cable from BB. Not sure if this will help or not.
A:AnswerI haven't had that problem, but I have noticed that once in a while a song will skip to a different part of the song, but I don't know if that's my iPod or the speaker.
A:AnswerThank you for your question. The power supply included with the SoundLink MIni speaker is voltage sensing (100-240V, 50/60Hz), therefore would only require the proper AC adapter and not a power converter. We hope this helps!
A:AnswerA yellow battery LED indicates that the SoundLink Mini speaker is charging. Even when connected to AC power the battery may accept a small charge occasionally to remain fully charged at all times. If you have questions or concerns about your product, please contact our technical support group for assistance.
You can reach them at 877-210-3782 They are open Mon-Fri from 8:30 AM to 9:00 PM EST and Sat from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
Thank You.
A:AnswerFirst, you need to see if Best Buy supports international shipping. Second, you don't need the DC power plug. It comes with an AC/DC charger that works with international power supplies. You will need the plug adapter to go from the U.S. AC prong to whatever prong shape that is used in France. That's it though, no converter is needed. Just a prong adapter. I'm sure Best Buy sells one but it won't do you any good if they don't ship internationally. Contact Best Buys customer support (this isn't it) and go from there.
A:AnswerYea wheter its your house, car, camping trip, pool etc.. it will work whereever as long as its connected to a bluetooth device (iphone, ipad, macbook, android phone etc) I took my bose soundlink on vacation and listened to pandora the whole way there :)
A:AnswerOur new SoundLink Mini Bluetooth speaker is designed as a standalone speaker system. It is not compatible with any of our Wave products. Thanks!
