    Alexa is extremely helpful. It is nice having multiple devices in different rooms. The dot syncs with our Echo and Echo show.

    when connected to your amp via 3.5mm into RCA cables. Her SQ is superior to the Chrome Cast Audio's analog output and on par with the CCA's digital output into an outboard DAC. I knocked off one star because one of my Dot3's 3.5mm output connection failed.

    3rd gen Echo Dots. Affordable whole house music

    Great little device that can do a lot. I decided to buy the 3rd gen because I wanted the charcoal color with the black ac cord. I read that the 4th gen charcoal echo dot comes with a white cord! Also, I read the audio quality of the 3rd gen is slightly better than the 4th gen echo dot. I paired 2 dots for stereo and Bluetoothed a bassy speaker to round out the sound... All dots are added to the Everywhere group for whole house sound... Very nice sound for an affordable price.

    This is a good product, however, I'm having a little trouble getting into it. Got one for Christmas and can't seem to fit it into my life. I like keeping up on devices like this so I want to learn to set it up and use it for things it is designed for, like a smart house. New houses will be smarter that us! I want to know how to work various robots and stuff so I'll keep trying. Giving commands all the time seems like a lot of yap. I don't like talking to robots. I like quiet...except for when I listen to my MUSIC! That's probably where I'll get the most use and enjoyment out of it. I hear it's a lot of fun with music. Maybe if I sing my commands with song lyrics or rap I could get into it more.
