Q2 Wi-Fi Internet Radio Support

Q. Is the Q2 Radio stereo?

Answer:


Yes and no! The radio is able to receive both stereo and mono audio streams. If the built-in loudspeaker is being used, stereo audio will be down-mixed to mono to play through the single speaker. If the 3.5mm headphone socket is being used, the radio will work in full stereo. This ensures the best possible quality for all applications.
