    First one right out of the box didn't work, support trouble shot as best they could then just sent me back into the store for a new one.. got the second one home set up process was pretty straight forward and worked. After some use it's been a little finicky as it on occasion will just drop from the sight of my HK Omni's and google home..? A reboot by unpluging it or shutting off the app seems to do the trick a little annoying however. But for 35.00 it's a pretty handy device...m2c.

    It's a little difficultt to get connected, but I have multiple networks at my house due to work so that could be the issue. Once connected the sound quality is great.
