Darn it bought my 4th last week. How many music zones do I need?! And I only live in a caravan...
Very hot this...

Leave some for the Sonos developers to buy Alex.. as sales of *other wireless* audiophile
devices have gone down the pan since CCA and the 24bit audio support firmware update
came out!! :smile:
>>>>>
For anyone that has not twigged or is puzzled technically.. this deal is for the AUDIO only Chromecast..
TIPS:
If you are planning on using these, as in multiple CCA's connected to different sets of speakers
around your property/properties, you *will* need a decent Wifi setup.. a lot of the reported reviews
over the last few months on this device have been made negative just from that issue alone.. so
if your wifi signal is naff/slow/old a/b/g and even some n [150mbps] speed, you might want to spend
£20 on a dual band or 5GHz wifi setup or if you have a newish router, a virtual wifi node..just for your
Audio pleasure..
The CCA runs 24bit, full metal jacket audio over 5GHz perfectly and as an early adopter of it, can
confirm that have never had one single audio buff or drop due to wifi speed/naffness.. other than
the normal, you are stuck out in the sticks windy power cuts!
Audio for Chromecast is a fantastic way to *re-purpose* any old or even new speakers that you
thought were just going to gather dust or be chucked in the tip! Match it up with a 2K amp and it
just makes you want to get up and Boogie!

Actually it does have optical via the same 3.5mm jack. Just need a toslink/spdif adapter.

That was the case when I got one when they first came out. I don't know if they have changed it.
Thanks op. That is the Kitchen sorted.
