To recap
If you want a speaker you can quickly and easily add to your existing Chromecast Audio multi-room setup, the Playlist is ideal. Likewise, if you use Spotify and want a Spotify Connect speaker in another room, the Playlist is super convenient. Saying that, we found the high-end tones weren’t especially clear, and the mid and bass balance felt slightly off too.
