Guest Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 I just bought one, and it does not do what I want it to, so I'm going back to my airport express for now. It cost me $37 and some change after tax, so will let it go for $30ppd. It will not include the box for this price, just the chromecast, 3.5 to 3.5 cable and power cable. The box will put it above first class shipping, so if you want it it'll be $5 more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vinylisprettyneat Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 I've got to ask. What's the difference between this and a normal Bluetooth speaker? I don't understand it at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Bluetooth compresses audio, this streams bit perfect audio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nancy_raygun Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Just curious, because I've been considering something like this, what did you want it to do that it doesn't do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Play local hi-res files. It is supposed to support up to 24/96, but it would only play like one or two an album. I got a few more to work using a really annoying way to cast (logitech media server and plugins), but it was not worth the hassle. Plus the web interface sucked. It works great for casting streaming services though, if that's what you want to use it for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
