Audio Pro C20 Active Stereo Speaker - Compact Sound Bluetooth Speaker for Music, Spotify, TV & Movies - AirPlay 2, Google Cast, Multiroom System, Built-in RIAA Amplifier - Grey

Initially gave a glowing review. There were frequent hiccups I was able to troubleshoot myself. But it became a major frustration, almost daily.Then, after about 4 months, the app stopped recognizing the speaker literally overnight. I can no longer use this speaker I saved up 550 bucks for, thinking it would last years. I am trying to make some sort of support ticket with the company and will be filing a bank dispute if they do not replace/refund/fix.*Amazon will likely remove this comment, but Vine recipients of free products are indeed fake reviews. Even if they are real people, they are not real consumers with honest feedback. Ignore those lies concerning 5 stars across the board.**updated to add there seems to be no actual customer support for USA customers. The link from their app goes to a dead error page. Their support website for USA customers is greyed out with no way to create a ticket. Filed a dispute.***after filing a dispute through bank's fraud department, I was sent "phishing" emails supposedly sent from the company that makes the failed speaker...but did not contain letterhead, professional etiquette, nor any official company support links. My bank representative told me to delete and not to respond while they continue their investigation.

Big audio equipment enthusiast here, since the 70s. And today I own lots of powered speakers, corded and cordless, so I can make some educated comments.SOUND: The AudioPro C20's sound quality is nothing short of FORMIDABLE! It's LOUD and it sounds VERY GOOD! I'm in awe at the selection of music I can throw at it, and it goes! With other speakers, I'd hit my limits sooner.SOURCES: My main sources have been Bluetooth, and Casting over WiFi. Both sound great, and I pay for high res audio streaming, which sounds phenomenal. I never got around to trying a turntable, but am glad the jacks/eq are there.SOFTWARE: This is why I took off half a star.. I don't like it. It's glitchy. The speaker will sometimes disconnect for no reason, and I have to go into it to toggle 'Bluetooth' again, even though it was already in that mode. Seems to happen with some frequency, and this PC has been fine with other speakers.In the end, I couldn't be happier with the sound this box gives me and the entire 1st floor of my house.

I was looking for a wireless speaker for use in my kitchen and on my boat when planning a trip on the water. After listening to the Sonos Era 300, Sonos 5 and Audio Pro C20 here are my observations.If your preference is audio effects vs. audio quality, get the Sonos Era 300. Feature rich, spatial audio and least expensive, the Sonos Era 300 wins if sound quality is not the absolute priority. Sounds okay, big soundstage but not to my liking. The app works okay. Seemless integration with Apple Music worked well. I prefer my HomePods to the Era 300.My interest in Sonos as a single wireless speaker addition to my kitchen was prompted by a restaurant using a Sonos 5 in the dining area. While I went there to eat, I was immediately drawn to the low volume but full and satisfying sound coming from the Sonos 5. While I tried the Sonos era 300 first due to price and features, the model 5 sound is on a different level. Though the sound stage is not at the same level as the Sonos era 300 playing Spatial Audio, it still did a great job diminishing single sound source directionality with drivers in the enclosure stategically placed in different directions. The lack of bluetooth could be remedied by the use of a bluetooth dongle plugged into the line in jack on the Sonos 5. Sonos's support, over hour wait on hold and 2 day email response prompted me to keep looking.After some research and reading a few reviews on the Audio Pro C20, it sounded like a good option so I bought one. It competed favorably against the Sonos era 300 but sound quality vs. the Sonos 5 proved challenging with each speaker boasting strengths in different areas. I have an audiophile system that sounds amazing with great recordings and absolutely horrible with poor recordings. The Audio Pro C20 behaved similarly. Great recordings sound great, marginal recordings not good. On the other hand, the Sonos makes everything sound decent; not great but not bad. The Audio Pro is more affected by room acoustics. The Sonos 5 sounds heavy and bloated. The 5 has a tuning feature using the mic in your smart phone that does a good job equalizing. Mids and highs sound a bit muted but nonetheless detailed. Very good presentation at low volumes. Both speakers have bass and treble controls and a clunky but functional app. If the Sonos 5 had bluetooth, this would be a tougher decision. Poor customer support and lack of bluetooth from Sonos give the advantage to Audio Pro. Negative reviews I have read on the Audio Pro cite poor customer support as a major complaint so that may be an issue I was able to avoid.Bottom line, if you don't need a lot of connectivity options, you will likely be happy with either. If background low volume music is your application, the Sonos is likely a better fit. In the right room with good source material, I have to tip my hat to AP. If additional inputs affording the use of a record player or even an external DAC where the optical jack is needed, you will prefer the AP. Your application is key. They both excel in their respective areas of strength.Lastly, I found suspicious that all reviews on the AP are from customers who received free product through the Vine program. I can assure you that this review is for a product that was purchased.
