A:AnswerDon't waste your time, the Bluetooth on mine stopped working literally at the one year mark, can't get warranty. This speaker was made with the cheapest parts they could find. You'll never get warranty or a straight answer out of rocketfish, I tried too, your hooped, buy a different brand and write a review about this speaker and your experience.
A:AnswerYou do have to turn it on so yes you would need to push the button. If you keep it plugged in then you should be good. It is very easy to connect too using Bluetooth
A:AnswerIf those devices don't have a Bluetooth capability, you may need a BT dongle to be able to pair to the speaker. I have had no trouble pairing with various phones that have a BT capability. The speaker was given as a gift, so I no longer have it to verify use with a BT dongle. If you are using an AV receiver with the other devices and it has a BT capability, that should work or possibility adding a dongle to it. I HDMI connect my Directv receiver and Apple TV through the receiver for surround sound from both sources.
A:AnswerIf the speaker has been paired to the computer, you then need to go into your computer sound settings to have the device set as your default audio output device.
A:AnswerMake sure the speaker is on, and only one device at a time can connect, I believe (so turn bluetooth off for the other devices). That did the trick for me.
A:AnswerYou will need to locate a universal AC adapter with a barrel connection that fits the speaker. Also the adapter needs to provide the speaker with 18V DC 2.5 Amps.
A:AnswerSometimes windows is terrible with bluetooth. I have a very nice windows laptop and it also gives me issues trying to pair to speakers.
You can just hook an auxilary cable (3.5mm headphone cable) from your computers headphone jack to the AUX hole in the speaker and it will play your CDs on the speaker :-)
A:AnswerYou can pair up to 7 of these speakers to a source device, but the source device will only send active signal to 1 device at a time. That unfortunately is a Bluetooth restriction, and not something I would have a work around for.
A:AnswerThe bass quality is fine. Understand it is a midrange speaker, not a woofer. It produces good sound, but your not going to get deep bass like a subwoofer, it just nicely rounds out the tones and produces an all around decent sound.
A:AnswerThe simple and forward answer is no. I was given 4 of these and when I tried my devive would unpair from one to pair with another. I tried several methods with no luck.
A:AnswerNo. Bluetooth capability does not allow it to be used on multiple devices. Therefore you can only use it solely with one device at any given time.
