Update: I'm revising this review based on the latest firmware update, Bluewave_Get_2018-06-19. The new firmware improves the range somewhat, maybe 50% greater than what I experienced before. I wish the range were better but appreciate the improvement in the reliability of the connection. I still like the way this little unit sounds and works...
Originally: I'm kind of disappointed with this unit. First, the good things: it sounds good, is very easy to use, is small and light, and will drive a lot of different headphones as long as the impedance is not too high. My Yuin PK1 sound good although the Sennheiser HD 6XX are a bit of a stretch (but that's to be expected).
The disappointing aspect is the range of the radio: with the unit I have it's only about 3 or 4 meters. Anything farther than that and the audio stream starts to stutter. I have also noticed dropouts when holding it in my closed hand or, when clipped to my shirt, my torso gets in-between the GET and the streaming source. And forget about taking it into an adjacent room. One other anomaly is that it failed to turn off once (the indicator stayed a solid green) and I had to reset the unit in order to restore it to working order.
Not sure if my unit is defective or if this is a limitation of the design. I'll contact the maker and see what they say.
