Wireless Speakers you can Take Anywhere

These days, wireless speakers can be found almost anywhere. The sheer quantity of options may be daunting. Big, tiny, portable, costly, inexpensive, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi…the sheer amount of choice can be intimidating. Its category evolves and expands at a rate comparable to new Netflix titles. If you merely want something to blast out tunes in the kitchen, there are currently several fantastic alternatives out there for little money when it comes to driver-housing sonic boxes (cylinders, oblongs, spheres, wedges, jewels, and teardrops).

Bluetooth vs. Wifi

Bluetooth is the most widely used wireless music streaming technology, but it is not the only one. Bluetooth is a wireless point-to-point technology that connects a transmitter (your phone or computer) to a receiver (your speaker) to play music. It’s quite straightforward to set up, and it can stream very high-quality music owing to technology developments that have considerably enhanced audio fidelity over a few years ago. Bluetooth, in general, does not support multi-room audio, however, certain speakers can set up stereo pairings with the assistance of an app, and others can establish a wireless mesh among many speakers for multi-room audio.

Wifi, on the other hand, has greater bandwidth than Bluetooth and may thus enable higher-fidelity music. It can also be integrated into your home network, allowing you to play audio from any device connected to your Wi-Fi without the need for pairing. The trade-off is that Wi-Fi audio systems, unlike Bluetooth speakers, require a Wi-Fi network to connect to, thus they cannot be used portable with your smartphone (though many offer Bluetooth pairing as a backup). Because of the varied Wi-Fi standards, certain services may or may not be available to stream via the device.
