It stays in “aux mode” all the time or works as normal and when you AirPlay share music it automatically change to the aux source?

[@manucozzarin437]

For those how was wondering the speaker automatically change the source to aux whenever you play music through airplay and goes back to normal when you ask Alexa to play something
About the sound quality it’s a little bit poor in terms of bass and volume and the worst thing is that the volumes are not synchronised so you have to first put the volume up on the speaker and then control it with the iPhone

Wi funciona muy bien. Lo unico malo le quita el dolby atmos se vuelve una bocina convencional

[@jesusoleg583]

Me puedes explicar es que no le entiendo que es el dispositivo blanco y como le hago para que me aparezca en el airplay tengo un echo dot no se que generacion es pero es la blanca entonces no se

[@austinmw89]

Can you add the echo sub?

[@EricMarschner]

No. It has no line-in as I understand.

Thank you for this idea!
What about music reproduction quality? Is it better than bluetooth??

[@EricMarschner]

I would imagine it would be better than bluetooth - especially if you use an optical audio cable to a single Studio.
