Great value powered speaker with one small caveat

Verified Purchase:Yes
These speakers are a great value with great mids and highs, and surprisingly good bass for a speaker of their size. The multiple inputs give a lot of flexibility. RCA, 3.5mm, and USB. Plus, a mono RCA output gives and option to further bump bass if desired. Handy remote too. I have found them great to have a true stereo output for my Amazon Echo Dot.
Now the one caveat. don't lose the remote. When you first power them up, or after a power outage, they will NOT turn out witihout using the remote. After than, you're fine indefinitely, or until you move them or have a power outage. By which time if the tiny remote has disappeared, you have two large paper weights. I'd have given them 5 stars for sound/cost, if not for this.

Simplify your everyday life with the Google Home, a voice-activated speaker powered by the Google Assistant. Use voice commands to enjoy music, get answers from Google and manage everyday tasks. Google Home is compatible with Android and iOS operating systems, and can control compatible smart devices such as Chromecast or Nest."

Useless if life not based around @gmail.com

PSA, if you're thinking about a nifty new GOOGLE HOME voice assistant device, and have a job, maybe don't. Not only will it not do a lot of little things without an account not ending in @gmail.com, (suck it, outlook and yahoo, apparently) it won't pull data from nor send to any google calendars you might have. This even includes their OWN Google Apps for business products, which their customers actually pay for. Odd business model to take care of freebie customers but not paid one. Is there a word that is the opposite of "Fremium"? Forget any of that junk they advertise like helping you with calendars, flights, to-dos etc. by using your email and calendar. Ironically, their competition, Amazon Echo/Alex can do it. In fact, it seems Echo can play my google music, but google can't. Sweet. Nice roll-out google. To be fair, it is called Google-Home, not Google-Professional, nor Google-guy-with-a-job, but, really? Save your money. You're welcome.
Pro-tip / 2nd PSA> you can hold down the mic button on the back for 15 seconds to reset/wipe it to clear your data before sending it back
