Build the Satellite1 Together
The board really work out of the box. Despite the speaker cable was not included, I found a suitable one among my box of ssentials DIY items. The 3D printed enclosure I printed is a bit over-engineered and the tolerances are way too tight, it can be improved. I have no complaints.
Works fine with the Satellite1 Dev Kit. Ensure the cable connectors are firmly plugged into the charger and Satellite1 Dev Kit.
Even though I don't have a speaker box to put it in yet, I'm very happy with it. Looking forward to building it into the speaker box that they'll be releasing soon. Highly recommended.
Stable powersupply, good quality finish.
I have only finished builing the speaker a few hours ago (medium Squircle, 25 Watt speaker) and I'm impressed by the quality compared to my Google Nest speakers. The HAT board has a good quality finish. I really appreciate the visual feedback of the LED ring: listening, understanding, speaking... That's a great added value for a smart speaker!
