Hello Dane Sorry for my ignorance but what is the echo tab. Can one only use it if one has an Alexa? Regards Fanus

I have the Tap sitting on the kitchen table now where I can clearly hear it even at very low volume, I'm in the lounge area which goes through to the kitchen. The first thing I did with Tap was to take it outside to enjoy the sunshine and listen to the BBC Radio 4 Midnight news. I would stress that this device - whilst not the best for music - does the spoken word proud indeed! clearly audible and understandable. By all means, listen to your music on the go with Tap but its nothing compared to other systems around and neither we should expect it to be at the price paid for a Tap. I'd be most interested to hear comments from other Tap users. I intend to use the Tap mainly for listening to Talking Books and Radio though of course! there's no reason why I can't use it for much much more with Alexa. I haven't seen any mention of the Hands Free update we've been discussing yet so perhaps its not available everywhere at this time.
