audio pro legacy

The app is supposed to support up to 5 devices in a group, but my fifth speaker frequently drops out and when I try to add it back, I get a “fail” message. Last night, we had a dinner party and the app showed 5 speakers connected, but only one would play music. Today, I reset two speakers to factory settings and then reconnected them. One continued to show “Fail” when being added to the group, then magically appeared. At first it would not play music, then it suddenly began to play. If I continue to have these issues, I will likely write off Audio Pro and switch to Sonos.

Speaker is wonderful, but the main reason I got it was that it was both AirPlay and Chromecast once connected to WiFi. Problem is that after I connect it to WiFi it does not stay available in my AirPlay options on any of my devices. The speaker connection instructions in the app are unclear and to have to keep setting it up over and over so that I can just play something on my phone and AirPlay out to the speaker is ridiculous. And it’s been this way for years.

I have had a mix of experiences while using the app to connect my single A15 speaker to my wifi. I travel frequently and like to bring the speaker to friends houses because its amazingly powerful and the sound quality is world class. In a few cases it has been easier to set up than the Sonos Move. But, the overwhelming majority of the time I find myself scratching my head about what I may be doing wrong - the menu to connect to WiFi loops me back to the WiFi selection screen after inputting the WiFi password. This happens 90% of the time I set up on another WiFi network. The documentation is very limited and the English translation is not clean. I've written customer service a few times with no response.
