    I don’t think anyone cares about Alexa being built in. Atleast any tech people.

      I am a tech person and I love Alexa. Super helpful.

    Loved this video. Since the pandemic I think Cnet videos have gotten better. You guys are stepping up your pandemic game.

    Why is “Alexa” censored?

    • TheBradnod

      August 31, 2020 at 8:16 pm

      I’m guessing so it won’t trigger people’s Alexa devices when it is said in the video.

    Could you send it to David Carnoy? I’d like to hear his opinion on the sound quality.

    Reviews a $2000 speaker in 2020.

    Uses $15 microphone from 1999.

    • James Drissel

      August 31, 2020 at 11:47 pm

      Honestly a $15 microphone from 1960 would probably have been an improvement. But I think she might actually be an audiophile who doesn’t know they are one. That mic would be fine for reviewing 99% of Bluetooth speakers, it just wasn’t up to this.

    Everything has Alexa built in? So how many watts and speakers does this thing have in it?

    Why is Alexa beeped? Is it a copyright issue?

    • Stuee

      August 31, 2020 at 10:52 pm

      The don’t want to set off Alexa devices in your house.

    During these crazy times, there are a truckload of other things I need that $2000 for ????

    • Jeviar Firsta

      August 31, 2020 at 10:22 pm

      A vintage Omega watch? Or a Longines Heritage watch? ????

    Damn I really thought she said it’s got ‘fucksa’ built in

    I’d get a Devialet every day of the year instead of that ugly piece of *ALEXA*

    Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder I guess. Put in a cushion and you have a very expensive pet seat.

    Just get two Alexa Echo studios. They sound superb. This looks like the head of a fly..
