If all you care about is streaming audio to your hi-fi system, there are many products offering what the Chromecast 2 does, not least the excellent Gramofon, which I reviewed earlier this year. Few, however, achieve the feat with the elegance and flexibil...

The Chromecast Audio is an odd device. For it to be any use whatsoever you need to have a good set of dumb speakers around to be used that you want to resurrect and if its not a good set you might as well just buy a cheap bluetooth speaker. Assuming you d...

It's a cheap way to make your existing sound system go wireless,
Casting from Chrome tabs on a computer yields spotty results, but if you live a predominant smartphone existence, you shouldn't run into too many issues, And yeah, it's ugly, Should You Buy It
I suppose, if you don't have any way of wirelessly playing music already. Or maybe you have a big component audio system you haven't otherwise enabled with wireless powers. Why not.Chromecast Audio only costs £30 and it mostly works. That price is hard to...
Abstract: Yes even those speakers that do not have Bluetooth can now play your music not only from your SmartPhone but also from other devices like your PC providing you have a Chrome browser. The unit is supplied with a 3.5mm to 3.5mm cable but providing you have...
Highly stable streaming, Sounds better than Bluetooth, Brilliantly simple setup, Extremely affordable, Multiroom audio support
Won't stream iTunes or Apple Music from iOS devices, Third-party app required to stream audio from a computer, Included audio cable is relatively useless
The Chromecast Audio is certainly extremely easy to use, and that's good, because ease of use is its defining attribute. The problem we see with the Chromecast Audio is the sheer number of competing devices. Just about any powered speaker or A/V receive...
Affordable, Easy to set up, Universal app support, Can stream lossless files, Casting trumps Bluetooth mirroring
Missing some major streaming service players, Lacks multi, room support
Setting up with your weapon of choice, be it a smartphone, tablet, or computer, is as easy as it should be. You'll be hard-pressed to find a better, more user-friendly or more affordable wireless music streaming device out there...

Affordable, great performance, simplicity, cross-platform use, Spotify integration
Not much - it does what it says on the tin, same price as Chromecast (for TV)
We weren't sure that Chromecast Audio would offer enough to be worthwhile. But having setup this dinky device, we're using it every day. It's affordable enough to buy without really thinking about, simple to setup and use, and supports a range of di...
Brings online streaming to offline devices, Easy to use, Lovely design,
Might be hard to find one
The Chromecast Audio is a simple and slick device with one goal in mind: to bring wireless music streaming to systems that may be in need of updating, without having to replace all your existing kit. Google has definitely achieved that particular objectiv...
As it stands, Chromecast Audio is incredibly simple to use and its low price almost makes it a no-brainer if you want to upgrade an existing speaker. Compared to a dedicated Spotify Connect speaker, such as the Philips Spotify Connect SW750M, Chromecast A...
