Alternatively, use the jackplug connector provided to use your own device or connect to the Bose Revolve Soundlink via Bluetooth to have your own sounds – just don’t share too loudly with the neighbours! If you feel like making your own music, there is a German upright piano (untuned) just waiting to have its ivories tickled.
