Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

So I can't give a full 5 stars. After the update it sounds BETTER but not better then the generation one. But the biggest improvement is the mic... At a full level 10 plugged into a surround sound at level 60 it can hear "Alexa" at a normal voice! It's really unbelievable how much better it is on hearing me. *Old review Side by side with the original echo and the original sounds much better. They definitely did not improve the speaker. If you can not get the generation 1 this would be alright. The mic is definitely "improved" she can now hear me with the volume maxed out. The audio jack is a nice improvement also. I guess I just thought generation 2 should be better all the way around especially when words like "better" and "improved" are used about the sound. Amazon is taking note though and called me out of the blue to get my take and the different tests I did to determine my judgement so maybe there is hope??
