A lot of bang for buck
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I paired this with a Raspberry PI media server and an iPad app to end up with a Sonos-style audio streaming solution for my 20 year old stereos. Great quality for a lot less money.

good but expensive
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.the only reason i bought this was to use in a home audio group with my google homes. for that purpose it works great, but if i wasn't trying to do that i'm not sure i would spend the money for it.

it works just fine
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.the only downside is that my bose bluetooth speaker now has to be in constant AUX mode, which if youre really close to the speaker, gives off an audible hum. not really the chromecasts fault, just part of the way it needs to be hooked up.

Does its job
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this to replace a bluetooth dongle I used to stream music from a phone or tablet. Because it uses wifi, the sound is supposed to be richer. I guess it is but would like a way to verify it.

Perfect addition to the Google ecosystem
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Chromecast audio works just like Sonos minus the speaker. Just add a powered speaker you can broadcast music anywhere in your house. Will only get better with Google home.

Move over Sonos
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Why spend $100s on connected speakers when you can spend $100 or less on three Chromecast Audio devices and plug into your own equipment. Setup and quality are superb.

Best Hole Home Audio
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This device aside from being very economical ( 15 to 35 dollars, depending on ) is the best and most economical way to attain whole house audio. By attaching " self powered speakers " you may determine the level of fidelity you wish to attain or are able to afford. I have about 4000 sq/ft home and I am able to broadcast to all zones ( " Party Mode " ) or any number of zones I wish, including my Home Theater area and all seven speakers powered by my receiver. Best and most economical way to attain a " Sonos Like " features for a fraction of a price.

great in-house wifi supplement
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If used as intended, on home wifi, stream form common app sources, through a home audio aux input, IT'S GREAT. I unfortunately wanted more. I wanted to stream music from my smartphone's internal memory files, through my vehicle(s) AUX audio. This type of application requires 3rd party apps, finagling a mobile hotspot or just MORE. Conclusion: I understand that ALL tools are application based, and if used outside of their designed purpose there will always be risk of disappointment. Chromecast Audio is a Very Good Product.

Possible volume control problem
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have trouble adjusting the volume (up or down) when I'm using my Audiocast dongle. I don't have this trouble with my Bluetooth or my Chromecast dongles. I didn't save my packaging, so I guess I can't send/take it back. I wasn't expecting any problems.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend
