Product details

Chromecast Audio is a small streaming device that simply plugs into the AUX input of your speaker. This makes your speakers Wi-Fi capable. After setup, you can easily stream your favorite music to the speakers using your iPhone, iPad, Android smartphone or tablet, Mac or Windows laptop, or Chromebook.

Just tap the Cast icon in your music app to stream to your speakers. You can then control the speakers from anywhere in your home with your smartphone, allowing you to find, play, pause your favorite songs, or create a playlist. Of course, you can also adjust the volume directly from your smartphone.

Schlechte Gebrauchsanleitung. Einzige mitgelieferte Hilfe besteht aus einer Skizze mit kurzen Beschriftungen auf der Verpackung. Onlinehilfe ist wenig hilfreich. Keine Audioein?gänge. Kein USB. Unterstützt den meist störungsarmen 5-Gigahertz-WLan-Standard. Keine passenden Multiroomboxen erhältlich. Günstig. Klein und leicht, lässt sich gut verstecken.
