I hate this site... First you made me feel I needed to buy something that I didn't, then you show me it again a day later, a pound cheaper :confused:
Got mine yesterday and love it. Heat OP! This is an absolute steal at 14 notes, what are you all waiting for?!

When you say play it through your phone, do you mean your phone speakers? I could never do that because I like music.

Im using with a Moto X Force, 1st gen Nexus 7, a Samsung Galaxy Ace something and an Asus Zenpad tablet. Running 2 CCA's in a fairly old building with thick solid walls to £7k's worth of Musial Fidelity/Monitor Audio Hi-Fi in the lounge and an old Denon mini system in the kitchen. I have had no problems with connection or any of the other problems you have mentioned.
I would say the reason it's cheap is because they have over stocked on a product that the general public don't have a clue about it what it is for. If they even know they exist. You just have to read the two threads on here to see people asking what speaker it has, can I use it in my car, why would you not just use the phone speaker and can I play my Netflix on my TV with it.
It's also the financial year end soon. So stocks need to be reduced. Targets need to be met to get retro payments on the invoice.
So yes, you could have a duffer. This happens with electronic products. This does not make the product rubbish. It makes you unlucky. Equally, it could be that it's just incompatible with your set up. You will always get products that have a quirk with another product. Or it could be your set up and something you are doing wrong. I don't know what one of those it is. But there are so many happy users, including me, that I can't see it as rubbish.

Wait a bit later, they "could" be £10, so having two averages to £12.50 each (£15+£10), both cheaper than £15+ £14 now, lol, the principle fo swaps and futures trading.....a disasterous strategy or wealth creation strategy, who knows, but for a city trader, win or fail, bonuses just keep coming.

Good grief! How many of these did they buy!?!? Got one for £15 yesterday but I must have another amp somewhere that would benefit from one of these...

We allllllll know that these Major Chains (Tesco, Sainsbury's & the like ... ) always overstock on all but everything?!, hence why when when for example Tesco is able to sell a NOW TV Box with 2 Day Pass for only £12, Sainsbury's will be selling the exact same item for £15 instead!, &/or visa versa ..... lol. :-)
