Hello, does anyone know where can I buy Qi module for L16? I cannot find it anywhere, and since i've got a mobile phone with Qi I would appreciate to have it installed on my L16. Thanks a lot!!
Hi I would buy this product but I wonder one thing about the app on windows mobile phone 10, have such a phone, and how do I change the equalizer settings?
I am trying to connect to the speaker to the internet, but it seems I need to do it through the JBL music app on my iPhone, and the app won't work on iOS 11. What should I do?
Is the L16 able to decode and play back 24 bit / 96 kHz audio files?
