    One of the most exciting devices to come out of Google. Gives you freedom to choose the speaker to use! Highly recommended.

    I still have to turn on the speakers so it's not entirely wireless but when I want to still use my phone but crank tunes, this works.

    The Donkey Kong series is always known for a being a little difficult, this one follows the same suit. If you liked the Country series, you'll like this one.

    Works excellent with ample Wi-Fi. Which I couldn't reach where I was to use. Otherwise I'd give five stars. Because it is a strong wifi music dongle

    Works well but the dependency on a wifi network is limiting. It's be great to be able to make it independent so you can truly take audio anywhere.

    Set up took a little time though, if your wireless router is password protected, you need to use a computer. It was simple though.
