Customers commend Chromecast Audio for its ease of use, excellent sound quality, and reasonable price. Many appreciate its seamless streaming capabilities and compatibility with other Google devices. While some users wish for a longer range and a built-in battery, the overwhelmingly positive feedback centers on the device's ease of setup and superior audio performance compared to Bluetooth alternatives. The convenience of using WiFi for audio streaming is also frequently highlighted.

    Bought this to use with my Google Home to connect to my old Bose system. A 3.5mm stereo to RCA plug cable I had hanging around did the trick. Connect and go. No problems with it on the home network at all.

    The new one is easier to connect to than the older style and I love that I have cast something from my phone or a computer whenever I need. I use them to present websites that I build and to watch Netflix and Youtube.

    Cheap, easy, effective. I have multiple stereos throughout my home and by using these I am able to fill the whole house with the same song synched perfectly.

    I bought 4 of these so I could use my exsisting equipment and they work great. Audio is synced through the entire house, garage and yard. Don't waste $1000's on Sonos if you already have receivers/speakers set up throughout the house.

    Lets us stream music to our stereo from phone without tethering the phone with the old school aux cable. We can still use the phone for texting, searching the internet, etc. Very convenient.

    Companion device to the one hooked up to my TV. This one is connected to my stereo and they coexist great on the network. Fun to use with my PLEX media server as well as other music services that are able to be cast.

    I'd always wanted a connected audio system, where the same music could be playing in multiple rooms. Buying a few Chromecast Audios has let me achieve this for a fraction of the cost of a Sonos or comparable wireless speaker system.

    Love the Google Chromecast audio if you have a bunch of old speakers with audio jacks. Gives you an inexpensive way to have whole home speaker system without the high cost of SONOS! Works great!
