Customers are saying

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.

    We got this so we could have music stream from our Google Home to a stereo. It works great and does exactly what we need it to do!

    Does What it Should

    I love this little dongle. I plugged it into my home stereo system using RCA cable (not included) and it works like a charm. NOTE: You won't be able to crossfade tracks using Spotify on this device, but that isn't a big deal for me. I use a white noise track from time to time and would prefer to blend it together seamlessly, but I find this is better for motivational music while working/studying. It can also serve as a way to cast sound from your phone if you are watching a movie.

    A house full of music, quick and easy

    I use Chromecast audio all around the house. There's one connected to my home theater system, one on a tower speaker on the back porch, one on a sound bar mounted under the kitchen cabinets and another connected to a smaller speaker in my bedroom. All speakers can play the same music, or different tunes for different rooms. Lose one star because you need a third party app to play your personal music library. But it's great for Pandora or iHeartRadio.

    Range and quality are much better than bluetooth. Even apps that don't have a "cast" button can be casted thru the chromecast app.

    Easy to cast audio to multiple existing speakers without upgrading to new Bluetooth devices. I wish Alexa paired with them.
