    Hi I'm new to your channel and I'm here for a reason I'm a tech guy and I've never encountered such a more confusing product in my life this thing is so confusing to use and so weird I don't know what works to use I just received my 3 days ago and I still can't figure it out I understand that you keep it plugged in it's not a wireless speaker what I thought it was I thought the blue light stays on all the time like I thought it didn't like the show every time the speaker the blue lights always on but the blue light doesn't stay on all the time so that's something I thought. And and then on top of that there's a million other things in the menu that go along with it I mean this thing is just way too much I just wanted a Bluetooth speaker not a freaking time machine!????
