Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Tons of options. A lot of bang for the buck. Firstly, it does what it claims to do. Nothing competes with this for $40 or less, but if the price is higher.

Whole house streaming is awesome! Good dts play-fi endpoint. Play-fi app works great with your own music and several other services including amazon music.

The gateway is in the bedroom feeding bower &wilkins small powered speakers. The unit is compact, and does a solid job as a source for an existing amp, stereo, or set of powered speakers.

Low cost, incredibly easy set up, and audiophile sound. No dropouts and perfect sound quality. Great to run a multi-room music setup without wasting so much money on sonos.

Cons

If you like a lot of frustration, then playfi is the technology for you. The device is small and compact, but that’s about all that is good about it. Doesn't work as advertised.

Highlights

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Quality

So the sound quality is as good as the source (and magnitudes better than any bluetooth connection in sound quality).

This is an excellent value and a high quality product.

The problem is that people order things like this, have no idea what the heck they are doing and blame the product.

Klipsch released this product in 2016 and that version of the software was not ready for primetime.

Price

Low cost, incredibly easy set up, and audiophile sound.

I was lucky, i got it for a good price.

Nothing competes with this for $40 or less, but if the price is higher.

Competitiveness

It is really great to run a multi-room music setup without wasting so much money on sonos.

It's a shame that chromecast audio has been discontinued, but this is a viable, and better, option.

Reason 5:the klipsch gate has volume/mute controls on the device; cca does not.

Reason 3:the klipsch gate has a html interface; cca does not.
