Iā€™m a night owl too sleep is a waste of time life is too short, Iā€™ll sleep when Iā€™m deadšŸ˜Ž Donā€™t let that stereo go to waste loud music is good for the soul. Iā€™m using it right now with my tv and can finally enjoy loud movies at night. Iā€™m thinking about picking up another to stick on an old set of over ear headphones that sound amazing but I rarely use because I move around constantly and the wire doesnā€™t jive.

So glad Iā€™m not the only one who says this. This is why I got a job working overnight.

I too am gonna have to get one of these as my old amp just blew and Iā€™m gonna drag out my ancient reciever so I can a try least have some tunes in the garage. Paired with this and streaming to my soundcore flares, I will be rocking out while working on the cars

Good review @Jesse_Hernandez1 , have a similar device from another manufacturer and it does come in handy for varied connection and playback methodsā€¦

I bought some cheap stuff and was really disappointed with audio quality. Need to cash out for something better it seems.

When it comes to uses sky is the limit really. The thing I like about those devices is that you can make you old hi fi system more modern and usable from anywhere in the house. If you have older car stereo with good quality speakers but donā€™t feel like putting a new radio in itā€™s also a great upgrade to play stuff from your phone via BT.

Be careful my friend ā€œelmo416883ā€

An advice from an old fellow.
This way of life is not ā€œhealthyā€ at all.
I was acting the same way when I was in your age.
But ā€œThanks Godā€ I stopped it, getting many health problems by and by.
And I didnā€™t recognize these at all.
Result was a real ā€œbreak downā€ā€¦

Now all its fine! Stopped smoking 30 years ago.
Nowadays : Two or three beers a day is good and healthy.
The rest is pure relaxing! :smiley:

Is there anyway to have the unit turn on automatically with connected power?

I have this in my car and it works great for sound quality using Apt-X HD from my phone to get optical to my DSP. However, itā€™s kind of inconvenient that I have to press the button to turn on the unit everytime I get in the car.

If I have it connected to a switched USB supply, it would be great if it would just turn on and turn off when it gains/loses power, effectively bypassing the internal battery I guess. Iā€™d really like to hide the unit in the back so it kind of defeats the purpose if I need to interact with it every time I want to use it requiring me to have it in the front.

Will it work if I try to input audio via AUX and output it through SPDIF?

#16

Great review and pictures. Love it :thumbsup:

#17

Hi there,
I would like to ask if the device can act as a SPDIF (optical) to analog audio converter. My amplifier has only an analog input and my TV receiver has an optical output. I will also need it to connect a Google home mini to the amplifier.
Thanks in advance

#18

I reply to myself. It doesnā€™t work. Once a jack is plugged the device prioritized it over the SPDIF input. Ankerā€™s team should have either added another button as an input selector or creating an app to set the device up. So that people do not have to unplug the jack cable in order to use SPDIF.

#19

I want to try this but $40 is too much IMO. Looking for a nice discount :slight_smile:

#20

Nice review.

aptX is a must when it comes to Bluetooth. Prefer the sound with that codec support.

#21

Is there a way of pairing two of these, one as a transmitter and one as a receiver, so that I can set up my wired active subwoofer as wireless?

Also, if I keep them connected to the power supply, will they stay on, or do I need to ā€œwake them upā€ for every use?

Cheers,
W.

#22

Hey sorry for the late reply. Iā€™m not sure if itā€™ll stay on I will turn mine on right now and see if it turns off and get back to you in the morning.

To answer your other question yes it is possible to pair two together TX/RX and would be a very creative use of the Soundsync.
