Our family lives life on a daily basis accompanied by the sounds of our favorite music and songs. At any given time, we can be found listening to our favorite tunes around the house or with headphones on. Add to that the fact that I have a teenager in the house and that tells you how important music is in our home. That is why we are so excited about the new Google Chromecast Audio at Best Buy! It enables you to play music on your speakers, new or old, wirelessly from your phone, laptop or tablet.
Chromecast Audio uses WiFi instead of Bluetooth, you can stream crystal clear hi res sound. You can listen to your favorite songs on your speaker by using your phone to play, pause, or change the volume from anywhere in the home. And while streaming, you can still text or call without interrupting what’s playing or draining your battery. This is extremely convenient for me because I love to check my email and use social media on my smartphone while I am listening to my playlists.
Using Chromecast Audio to stream over Wi-Fi has many advantages over Bluetooth including higher sound quality. You can enjoy crystal clear sound, powered by the cloud. This allows you to take advantage of hundreds of your favorite audio apps to stream millions of songs, radio stations, and podcasts through apps like Pandora, Spotify, YouTube Music, and Google Play Music. Find more at chromecast.com/apps.
Now you can easily fill every room in your home with synchronous music. Simply group Chromecast Audio devices together so you can listen to the same song on multiple speakers. Now that is what I call multi-room jamming!
Let’s Discuss: How would Chromecast Audio improve your music streaming experience right at home?

I have a Chromecast for my TV. Now I must go buy this one. I didnt even know they existed. thanks for sharing.
We always have music playing in out house. so this is perfect for us. I am going to tell Chris about this and definitely look into getting it.
This sounds great! We currently have a multi-room speaker system that doesn’t work that well, I’ll have to check out Chromecast audio!
We were just talking about how we needed to find better speakers. I love to play music in the house and when we’re in the pool. I am going to look into these!
This looks like a really great product. I like using different speakers and trying them out as well. I would absolutely try this one and see how it works for my family.
Wow! This is the first I’ve heard of Chromecast audio. I have the video version already and really love it.
We have Chromecast for movies in my daughter’s room. Didn’t know they had Chromecast Audio and I need to look into that!
We have 3 Chromecasts and LOVE them! I need to check out chrome cast audio!
Music is always playing in our house. We have a bluetooth enabled speaker, but, I’ll be honest, it’s not that great. Need to head over to Best Buy to nab one of these.
It’s always great to have music playing around the house. Thanks for the tip.
We chromecast from the computer to the TV all the time, so this fits in with us already. The speakers built into computers are always terrible, so this little speaker looks like a fantastic idea. Love how small it is.
I love this! There are so many different new techie things out there so this is super helpful to work through all the options!
I love that your music doesn’t get interrupted when you do other things! There is nothing more annoying than not being able to listen to my jams and scroll Facebook or Instagram 🙂
I have a little Wi-Fi speaker that I love using when we’re listening to music as a family sometimes we pull up all music from our childhood to let our kids listen to.
You mean I don’t have to have all these wires running through my house to ginormous speakers that I try to hide. I think my husband might be getting these for Father’s day this year. He’s the one that wants speakers all over the house. Pinning this one for later!!
What a great system. We are big music fans in our house and we need a good sound in our house!
I love Chromecast but I didn’t know about this one! Totally need to buy this little guy! I always have music in one room or another it would be so much nicer connecting!
This sounds (get it) great! I’m sure my nerdy music crazy husband would love this. Thank you for sharing.
I love how sleek this looks! I’ve been looking for a new sound system and this seems like it would be a great fit!
My daughter is constantly telling me I have to get rid of my old sound system to play her favorite music. With Chromecast Audio I can repurpose those speakers. I love Best Buy for electronics.
This is awesome! We just got the Amazon Echo which has been nice to quickly turn on our music. But I think the speaker isn’t loud enough!
I’ve seen this on someone else’s blog recently and I’m so intrigued by it! I’ve never heard of it before but it seems to be popping up everyone and everyone seems to be loving it!
I have one of these and love the thing!!! It’s perfect for my office and I’m loving how I was able to get rid of wires!!!!!
I keep hearing about these Chromecast audio. I have heard some great reviews including yours so thanks for the additional information.
I always have music playing around my house but I’ve never seen the Chromecast audio before. I think I need to get one!
I have never heard of this but it sounds awesome. Could be an early Christmas or birthday gift.
That’s so cool you got to review this! I had no idea how this worked or what it was so this article was very informative for me on chromecast audio!
This sounds like an amazing product! And so cool it uses wifi instead of Bluetooth. I love listening to music in the house.
I have always wondered about Chromecast. I would definitely like to try it. We would love better sound!
I just got a free subscription to Pandora Plus, so this sounds like something fun to play with that. I think this would help me work out better.
It sounds like a fabulous new gadget that I would love to try. I am not sure if it would be best with my wi-fi since AT&T is bad in my area and seems to cut in and out quite frequently.
