GGMM M3 WiFi Bluetooth Smart Speaker for Streaming Music, HiFi Audio Stereo Surround Powerful Bass, AirPlay Wooden Cabinet (Black)

GGMM knocked this out of the park when you consider the attention to detail in construction, audio fidelity and build quality. It sounds as good as it looks. The M3s has become the wifi speaker setup for my home. It's rock solid and once setup, seamless for me or my wife to turn our home into a concert hall.Design: the retro look is spot on without being a gimmick as I've seen here. The only plastic is the sound reflex port in the back and well that's in the back as to not compete with the retro industrial look...reminds me of a Tivoli radio except the wood here is wrapped in beautiful soft leather. The buttons are machine cut, the dial looks like it came out of a solid chunk of aluminum.Connectivity: wifi, BT 4.0, and line in indicated by blue, white and green lights respectively. Yes blue for wifi is different. Steaming over wifi is either direct connection or routed through your home wifi; I opted for the home wifi setup which took about a minute. It does drop every once in a while but that's a wifi fidelity issue not the radio. Over the wifi, I was able to pair two M3 together for multi-room audio streaming and the 3rd M3 in the same group playing in stereo. I will add 2 more later for another set of stereo. The sound is just amazing.Audio quality: impressive from crystal clear highs, punchy mids and a low end response that is insane for a speaker this size. The two bass reflex ports move a considerable amount of air around and reminds of the Bose Soundtouch 30. Put a Bose or Sonos name on this speaker and you can ask $399 for it easily. There's nothing that sounds this full for the same money. I think the app which is required for wifi setup and stereo pairing is a work in progress as it gets the basic functions right but needs work in keeping it stable and not crashing.Overall, GGMM as my multicast system has not let me down and continually impresses me. Currently, I have an E5, 3 M3s and an 2 M4 pumping tunes through the house. I couldn't be happierUpdate, April '17: I am using my stereo M3s as the powered speakers for my Teac TN-300. Using an RCA into 3.5 split into separate lines for each speaker making it true stereo vs each playing stereo sound. The record sound is clean, warm and honestly sounds better than anything I've played over lossless wifi - for me it's just another validation on my investment in the M3s and GGMM.

I like it. The sound quality is excellent for a "small" speaker. Great highs, mids and bass. Bluetooth is flawless, connects readily and doesn't drop out. I like the looks of the speaker. Very well built. Now, I'm not so sure about wifi. It works, but is pretty flaky setting up and managing. I was able to get the M3 connected to my router after going through two different manuals and a youtube video.The most important thing is the app you have to download. If you want to play music from your PC or Mac you'll also have to download an app. On the PC, Before installing the app on the PC, I used the phone app to navigate to the "client mode", which is router mode. I didn't care for "direct" mode because it makes the M3 a wifi router with no security that I could tell. So, this brought up my router wifi credentials which I entered and the M3 connected to my router. I never had to go to the M3's site to configure as the manual explains; the M3 is on my network with the correct IP address. I then installed the PC app and it was running, but no sound. Made sure the M3 was connected, it was. Ok, then right click the app icon in the task bar and select the M3. It defaults to the computer so you have to select the M3. Then, Windows showed the M3 device and it was playing away. Once connected, it's awesome. I can play anything from the PC to the M3 at any location where there is a wifi signal, even on my back patio. I am pasting a link to a great instructional video for the M3, getting it connected and operating:[...]On Android, the app pretty much takes care of it all, but you also have to take the step of tapping an icon in the app to choose the M3 and not the phone. I have not been able to play Pandora yet from my phone, (on wifi, Bluetooth works fine). Interestingly, Pandora works great on WiFi from the PC. I suspect the phone issue has something to do with DLNA on the Samsung. iOS users have an easier go of it with Airplay.So, all in all it's a great quality product and the sound is incredible. The wifi is good, just too many steps to get it connected in my opinion. They will most likely be improving the apps, I hope so. The bluetooth and wired connections are fantastic, and once the wifi is connected the sound quality is even better. Highly recommended.

3 stars because it is an aesthetically pleasing speaker, the sound was decent, not bold enough for a good sized room, but the real problem was the software. My wireless network works for many, many other devices in our house just fine, and though I repeatedly went through the setup of the speaker in the app successfully, the speaker would never connect once setup was complete. Bluetooth worked OK and there is a direct line option, but that was not why I chose this speaker, it was for the wireless capability. So whether it was the app or the speaker, I can't say and it really doesn't matter as it is all part of one system, but it had to go back as it didn't meet the criteria of wireless speaker.

So I bought one of these in 2016. Always wanted to get a matching pair, so when I saw this at this price, I decided to buy one more. The one I bought previously was nothing spectacular. The sound was decent. I mainly bought it for its looks.All I can say is they must have done an update or something. The speaker I just bought blows the other one out of the water. The sound is nice and clear and crisp. The bass is well balanced, not to heavy or muddy. The bluetooth connection is solid.The wifi connection is still abysmal. Look elsewhere is that's why you're purchasing. But if you want a solid speaker than can fill a living room with vibrant sound so you can rock out like your 14 again, and piss off the neighbors, this is your speaker.
