Not a good product, not worth the money.

Conclusion:

1. Until the current  firmware is fixed, it is impossible to use it as a wireless pair of speakers from a computer from the word at all. Well, maybe only phlegmatic people listening to SBC.

2. Buying a second column of the same type, you do not double the pleasure, but start to suffer.

3. Speakers teach patience. Many of the problems described in the shortcomings are observed within the first FEW minutes. After a month of use, I adapted a little to using it from the phone, the settings are reset to factory settings, the speakers are synchronized for several minutes at the start, apparently the bitrate is adjusted to the channel, maybe they are looking for a frequency that is not so clogged, in general, put the first track through.

After more or less pouring in, you can live from the phone, BUT I still don’t listen from the computer.

2: In principle, they can be treated by over-fallowing, i. E. sometimes they start to hiccup soundly, neither turning off nor disconnecting is treated, then we go into the telephone application, separate the columns, fasten it again, and in principle the work can stabilize. With this approach, if you're lucky, you can listen to it from a computer. But if it's not Beckham's day or some kind of magnetic storms - hop-hey-ik-ik-lay,  in the ears.

Pros

The sound, appearance, the speakers themselves sound great, the design and controls are top five, everything is just super

Cons

Software and firmware. This is ADD. Each ate through the application from the phone gives an error message, you look later, and the version is new, miracles and nothing more. Linking speakers is HORRIBLE, on firmware version 5.0. X, connected speakers were connected only via the SBC codec. Set the codec of the SBC and rhyme. ated with sin in half to version 6.1. X, cheers connected AptX, now every couple of minutes the slave column stalls when playing for a second. You can’t connect the master via a cord, but you can’t leave the slave on the blue-tooth, and in general, speakers paired via bluetooth cannot be switched to another input, all clicks on changing the input source are ignored. It is impossible to adjust the balance of the paired speakers when playing from the phone in the native application, sit in the middle and that's it, it's useless to turn the knobs on the speakers, they are also connected and the volume is synchronized. So both columns of cyclopean sizes do not fit on the table, but you still sit in the middle. A lot of time spent, nerves and even more. While I connected the paired AptX I sweated a hundred times, but it still does not work humanly. 60+ thousand for wireless speakers down the drain, you have to tie everything with cords, just a spit in the face from the manufacturer. . With a sin in half, I set up playback from the phone via AptX and balance on it. The second column fades more than once a minute, but with luck, it happens that it does not fade for quite some time. But I think it's just that the phone drives a lower bitrate than the laptop. Each disconnection from the device breaks this delicate balance, you need to turn on / off the speakers, dance with tambourines, etc. , so that they drop something inside. Every second binding, with one click, is not untied and the speakers start to hiccup. To connect two speakers in stereo format through wires, you will have to invent infernal machinery with wires, and with a probability of 0.99, the best option would be to simply solder the minijack to the 4th RCA. Or collect it and through the conductor and two b cords All other methods do not work, the speakers are not friends with each other by wire.
