August WR320 Wi-Fi Receiver


Rating: 5/5

Review:
An excellent, flexible unit



August kindly sent me this unit for review, and I think it's excellent.  It's a neat little box which turns any speaker system, including a full stereo system, or even headphones into a Wi-Fi enabled device.  It also allows normal Bluetooth and wired connection, so it's very versatile.

It comes neatly and simply packed with good quality connecting leads: two jack-to-jack leads (one for input and one for output), a jack-to-phono lead for output to a stereo system or similar and a standard micro-USB lead for powering the unit. 

Wi-fi set-up was pretty simple.  The app downloads and installs without difficulty and connection is pretty easy after that.  (I already have an August Wi-Fi speaker and this uses the same app.)  Once connected, you can stream from internet sites or play your own music via the app and it's excellent. Because it's wi-fi, lossless really means lossless so music from places like Tidal sounds great – and I love having my full TEAC stereo system Wi-Fi enabled.

The app gives real flexibility. If you have more than one speaker you can put them in different rooms and choose which to play (including all at once if you like), configure them to act as left and right channels to give wireless stereo and so on. It just works, and once I'd got used to the app (which didn’t take long) it was all very simple.

Use as a Bluetooth receiver is also simple and gave a good solid connection up to at least 8 metres. AUX wired input also works fine from my Hifiman music player, so it's a cracking unit which is simple to use and gives real flexibility to my stereo.

I'm delighted with this unit.  August make good quality products so I'm sure it will be durable and I can recommend it very warmly.
