Cambridge Audio Minx Go bluetooth portable speaker system

High-fidelity Bluetooth

Sure, the Minx Go will play audio streamed from a standard Bluetooth-enabled device. But it also features aptX® audio coding, an advanced type of Bluetooth wireless streaming that retains virtually all the detail of the audio signal it carries. If your smartphone or tablet is compatible with this technology, you'll get even better performance.

High-performance sound

Cambridge Audio started with a rigid cabinet that minimizes unwanted vibration and rattle. Into it they placed two 2-inch, high-quality woofers for rich dynamic midrange, and two titanium dome tweeters for clean, accurate highs. A rear-firing bass radiator reinforces the low tones for deep, authoritative bass. An advanced digital signal processor (DSP) ensures the incoming audio stream is decoded as accurately as possible, retaining all the detail of the source material.


"This little speaker sounds much better than it has any right to..The Minx Go is a great option for people who want clear, clean audio in a solid package, and aren't swayed by the flashy exterior of competitors."

— From Jeremiah Rice's review Android Police, June, 2013

Power to spare

The system's built-in rechargeable battery can deliver up to 18 hours of continuous operation when fully charged. And speaking of charging, when the Minx Go is connected to an AC outlet, you can also recharge your smartphone or tablet through the system's USB port. You can also use that same USB port to recharge the Minx Go from your computer.


"The Cambridge Audio brand has a long history of offering well-designed, high-function products, and the sleek Minx Go is a great addition to that lineage."

— From David Williams' review Geek Magazine, November, 2013


On-the-go extras

A fold-out stand keeps the Minx Go stable when you set it up. And when you're ready to travel, fold in the stand, and slip this compact speaker into its carry pouch.

Features

Bluetooth A2DP: The Cambridge Audio Minx Go supports Bluetooth A2DP for wireless connection between the portable speaker and your Bluetooth-enabled Apple iPod/iPhone/iPad, Android smartphone/tablet, Blackberry, laptop/computer, or other device. You'll be able to wirelessly stream stored music and music apps from your Bluetooth-enabled mobile device to the Cambridge Audio Minx Go. You will continue to use your Bluetooth-enabled device to navigate your music and to view song/artist information.

Simple Pairing: This unit pairs with your Bluetooth-enabled device with a single press of a button and can pair with up to 8 devices (only one can be used at a time). Once paired, the Minx Go will automatically re-connect with your device when in wireless range (up to 33').

Note: Due to the differences in Bluetooth technology, some Bluetooth enabled devices may be incompatible, function improperly, or may not support all features when used with the Cambridge Audio Minx Go.

Cambridge Audio Sound: Like every Cambridge Audio product, Minx Go was created by their design team in London. Cambridge Audio engineers have combined their hi-fi and speaker knowhow with the latest Digital Signal Processing (DSP) technology to deliver massive power from the smallest possible footprint. The results are an expansive, clear, deep sound that really fills your room with music.

  • Digital Amplifier: A powerful class-D digital amplifier delivers expansive power from a system that's small enough to hold in your hand.
  • 5 Speaker Array: The Minx Go features an array of five premium quality speakers to reproduce your favorite music with exceptional detail. The Minx Go employs two titanium tweeters for exceptional crisp detail, dual 2" woofers for excellent stereo imaging, and a rear-mounted Active Bass Radiator (ABR) for deep bass.
  • Digital Signal Processing: Digital Signal Processing means consistent performance for whatever you're listening to, and however loud you're listening to it. Unlike many other portable systems, your music stays distortion-free, even at top volume.
  • Onboard DACs: On board digital to analog converters squeeze maximum detail from your streamed music before it's processed into the sound you hear.
  • Acoustically Damped Construction: Beneath the scratch resistant high gloss lacquer, Minx Go's acoustically damped cabinet is designed to eliminate vibration and distortion, even at high volumes.

Aux Input: A rear mounted 3.5mm auxiliary input lets you connect almost any portable audio device with a headphone jack output.

USB Charging Port: When connected to AC power, the Minx Go is capable of recharging the battery of your Bluetooth-enabled device from the speaker's built-in USB (type-A) port; rated at 5V/500mA. Now you don't need to carry an extra charger to keep your devices powered up. This USB port does not support audio playback.

LED Indicators: Integrated LEDs indicate charging (red/green) and pairing (blue) status.

Rechargeable Battery + AC Power Adapter: The Minx Go features a lithium-ion rechargeable battery that offers 18 hours of music playback. It also recharges fast from the included AC power adapter and only takes around 2 hours to reach full charge. The AC power adapter can also be used to power the speaker.

Note: The Bluetooth speaker automatically turns off after 30 minutes of inactivity.

Q
Is the volume sufficient? Just have mine out of the box & hooked up to AC power. Could not connect w/ bluetooth, so hooked via cable. Volume does not go very high at all. Comments?

A
Have connected to speaker via Bluetooth, and cable and have had no volume issues
robert  Jan 13, 2014
A
Volume seems pretty good so far...especially for the size of the unit. Decent bass response and clear!!! Bluetooth was set up in probably less than a minute...no issues here. Happy with purchase and will suit my need well.
michael  Jan 11, 2014
A
Mine can get quite loud. The instructions said to plug it in and let it charge for 4 hours before operation, did you do that?
eric  Jan 10, 2014
A
Our initial reaction is that the volume was much louder than we had expected. Our college age son and high school daughter are satisfied with the volume. I believe it was connected through bluetooth.
andrea m  Jan 10, 2014
A
Via Bluetooth the volume pegged the Sound Pressure meter at 100db. Plugged the cable in and it was about 95db.Had the phone's volume on highest level. I was still able to turn up the Minx to louder than it was via Bluetooth, so it plays plenty loud. Check the volume on your device and ensure it was turned to at least 3/4's.
mark  Jan 09, 2014
A
I hooked mine up via bluetooth and the volume was fine....podcasts and classical music. Haven't tried anything louder.
andrew  Jan 09, 2014
A
Just purchased one and found the volume to be satisfactory for a unit of this size and price. Bluetooth did connect easily but was dropping at distances much less than 30 feet. Found the unit to be not working properly and Crutchfield quickly replaced. New unit bluetooth works great up to 30 feet. Overall pleased with speaker performance.
thomas  Jan 09, 2014
A
Let it charge all the way and make sure the volume of the source is up all the way. You'll get plenty of volume.
dan  Jan 09, 2014
A
Bluetooth set up was easy on my iphone. Need to set up iphone first, then turn on the Minx. Volume on my Minx is excellent.
richard  Jan 09, 2014
A
I bought it for my teenage daughter, and have not experimented with it myself. Suffice it to say that the volume goes high enough for me to routinely tell her to turn it down.
henry  Jan 09, 2014
A
I would check the volumn setting both on the Minx as well as on the device you've connected. I would bet the device column is turned down low.
michael  Jan 09, 2014

Sorry, it is a present for my wife. Have not used it yet!
james  Dec 14, 2013

Yes, the speaker plays while charging. The USB port charger only works while the unit is plugged in.
alejandro  Dec 13, 2013
A
Absolutely
wilson  Dec 13, 2013
A
Yes
edrenilo  Dec 13, 2013
A
Sure can. As long as there is enough charge to start up, it will play just fine. Good product overall.
andrew  Dec 13, 2013
A
Sorry I cannot answer. I sent mine back and bought the Bose.
eileen  Dec 13, 2013
A
Yes very much so
sampath  Dec 13, 2013

Yes it will.

Does the unit work just as well with the Android system?

Paula, We have only used the Minx Go with an iPhone but would assume it will work with any device that can connect via Bluetooth. It also has a mini jack port on the back that can connect with a mini jack cable. It's a nice unit that sounds good, and is very potable with a long battery life. Sorry I couldn't be of more help. Marty
martin  Jan 06, 2015

I have owned one for about a year. It works really well, sounds great and is easy to use. I have used it will multiple Bluetooth platforms, including Windows PC, Apple, and just plain cell phone (not smart phone). I can't speak specifically to Android, but I believe as long as a device is Bluetooth capable, it works great.
todd j  Jan 05, 2015

Paula E. I have a Galaxy S5 and it works just fine with the Minx Go. I use Pandora with it a lot.
william  Jan 05, 2015
A
I have an android phone and it works great.
henry s  Jan 05, 2015
A
Don't know I think the Android has Apt x Bluetooth so it should work
jonathan  Jan 05, 2015
A
Can't help with that as only have used IOS
wilson  Jan 04, 2015
A
Hi Paula, This bluetooth speaker seems to work awesome with any system I have used it with. It has been used with ipads, kindle fire, iphone and samsung tablets. I have had mine for quite some time and absolutely love it. As long as your device is bluetooth compatible it should work.
robert  Jan 04, 2015
A
My (black) Minx Go works very well with my Motorola Maxx HD. (Android)
curtis  Jan 04, 2015
A
Yes it does.
ray  Jan 04, 2015
A
Yes it does.
