I am a big fan of Audible who listens to Audible audiobooks every day. Can I stream Audible audiobooks on Chromecast Audio to my home speakers to enhance the sound quality? I'd prefer to enjoy Audible files in this way when I am at home if possible.

- Question from an Audible forum.

Chromecast Audio is perhaps the most beautiful and powerful device for playing music via speakers or TVs. By plugging in it, your offline home speakers like Google Home will be changed to smart internet speakers immediately and you can stream music from a couple of streaming apps such as Spotify, YouTube Music, iHeartRadio, TuneIn Radio, Pandora, and so on. It makes it the most convenient tool ever to enjoy high-quality music freely.

However, the Audible app is not on the list. So many audiobook users might have similar questions mentioned above. No worries. Here I will offer the top 2 ways to cast Audible to Chromecast Audio. The first one is only workable for Android users and the second way is suitable for anyone.

Part 1. How to Cast Audible to Chromecast using Google Cast [Android]

Google Cast serves as a robust tool, enabling seamless streaming of content from various apps, including Audible, directly to your Chromecast-enabled devices. Audible incorporated Google Cast functionality following updates to its app interfaces and features. Before you embark on casting, ensure synchronization between your Audible app and Chromecast device by connecting them to the same Wi-Fi network.
