Google - Chromecast Audio

Budget sonos system
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The chromecast audio system is a great way to build a budget multi-room audio system. I currently have two set up in my apartment, each set up with an independent audio system. Set up is relatively easy, and runs great off the wifi.

Works as advertised
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great easy to setup device, easy to stream music especially if you own an iOS device, compact enough to sit on top or behind your receiver. Great for older receivers that do not support Airplay.

Home Audio Extension Dream
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.As my receiver is a few years old at this point the only way I could stream audio to my receiver was through Apple airplay. My receiver only had a wired internet connection. By attaching this to my receiver I am now able to stream almost anything I have desired from my Android phone but by using the headphone to audio component my receiver is able to output this in Zone 2 allowing me to stream this to all of my speakers. (My receiver does not have the ability to convert digital audio to analog audio for use with Zone 2 normally.) Will be purchasing more to test out the multi-room features.

Wasteful redundancy
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.First off, the name is misleading. I bought this device to do one thing, to allow me to listen to the music on my phone through my home stereo. Turns out I would have been better off with a bluetooth receiver, because chromecast audio does not allow you to cast music to it. Sure, it streams music from apps like Pandora and Spotify but I don't need a chromecast for that. My phone can already do that.

Excellent streaming - headphones, AV, HiFi systems
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent for streaming digital audio content to headphones, AV, HiFi systems. I "wired" my home with Chromecast Audio at $30 a room. I used existing AV or HiFi systems. I keep one Chromecast Audio and a USB power brick as a "roaming" headphone amp for private listening. Chromecast Audio has more power, volume, and dynamic range than your average smartphone.

Great for multi speaker wireless music.
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Chromecast audio allows you to group multiple chromecast audio devices together to stream your audio simultaneously to multiple speakers. However it has noticeable delay. It makes it virtually unusable for watching TV/movies with chromecast audio. However as the product name suggests, it works perfectly if you are just streaming music only. There is one more downside, iOS support has yet to come. You also need the latest android builds to enjoy group casting to your chromecast audio devices.

ONLINE MUSIC ONLY
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you intended to play music that is ACTUALLY on your phone, then this device is NOT FOR YOU. It will only play music through a streaming app. I have 50 GB of music on my phone. This device allows me to access NONE of it. I don't need it. I can already hook my phone up to my speaker... through the headphone jack on my phone and the same wire provided. Its going back to BestBuy.

Chromecast audio is great....
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have an older surround sound system that does not have bluetoothe capability so I was going to buy a plug in bluetoothe adapter. When the Chromecast Audio device went on sale, I thought that it might be better yet. IT WAS. I can play my music or streaming music like Pandora. A great $30.00 purchase...
