alexa va en inglés

This speaker was really easy to set up and configure right out of the box. Good sound and has some power - I use it with Spotify. If you want to use it as an Alexa device you will need the amazon app on your phone to synch with it. I wish it also had an internal battery for added portability, but that's minor. Overall pleased with my purchase!

The Kitsound Voice One Smart Speaker is an elegant looking cloth covered mini tower, with built in stereo speakers and a rear facing bass port. It has easily accessible front facing controls with visual color feedback from a lighted escutcheon depending upon the mode chosen.It has an impressive stereo soundfield for a speaker that is 5 inches wide by 5 1/2" deep by 11" high. It has a very solid feeling, weighing just over 4 pounds. Plenty of mass to reverberate bass notes. It is best positioned about one foot from a wall or flat surface to makes the best use of the bass port located in the back.It is a great speaker for streaming internet radio stations via Alexa through the Tunein network. It supports Spotify and that app can be controlled via one's phone or tablet. I stream Amazon Music and easily access my playlists and album content.The Voice One Smart Speaker has very good ears and can hear the Alexa wake word even it its whispered within several feet. If by any chance the music is playing too loud, a small KS icon lights up at the bottom of the front facing control pad, noting it may not hear the wake word, which indicates you can hit the pause button on the remote and she will hear you.The Kitsound Voice One is easy to change modes with. Bluetooth is immediately responsive and syncs up quickly. The line in mode works very well with my Google Chromecast audio dongle. This makes the unit very capable of performing in three different modes effortlessly.The remote control mirrors the design of the controls on the front of the Voice One. On the main speaker the circular volume control contains a lighted central element that feeds back what mode you are using and Alexa's responses. On the remote the circular design is multipurpose, allowing track changing via the Kitsound Music Player and volume up and down. Plus the center portion acts as a pause button.The power supply for the Kitsound Voice One is built inside the unit. It comes supplied with 3 line cords. One USA, one UK and one EU. So no wall warts to contend with. It is as simple as plugging a toaster into the wall socket. In the stand-by mode the Voice One consumes 2 watts. In wake mode, it consumes 2.8 watts and in play mode it consumes just less than 4 watts from a 120 volt AC source. So it is very green.It comes with a quick guide user manual. A full featured illustrated 30 page user manual can be downloaded from the Kitsound.co.uk website. Also there is an insert for featuring Spotify.In summary, this is a well thought out and designed smart speaker that has the added plus, missing from most other smart speakers, of stereo capability. This makes it a pleasure to listen to music from. It has plenty of volume and can play loud enough to hurt one's ears. The Voice One can be added to up to 8 units altogether for full house coverage and is accessible by the Kitsound app for customizing same. Via the Alexa app I have full control over all the smart devices in my home with just the sound of my voice. It comes double boxed and has plenty of product protection within. No cost was spared to make this something you would really like to have and use.Its a winner and I can highly recommend it.

bonne puissance ..son nikel et le plus avec alexa je recommande ce produit

Qualità audio discreta, il supporto integrato alexa non funziona in lingua italiana ed il setup tramite Wi-Fi è macchinoso e va ripetuto varie volte.Se viene spostato di stanza perde la connessione Wi-Fi è va ripetuta la proceduraDue stelle solo per la qualità audio per il resto zero.Restituisco oltre al fatto che la scatola è arrivata danneggiata.
