Buying tips
- Match the speaker to use: choose Bluetooth portables for travel, Wi‑Fi/Smart speakers for multiroom setups, and soundbars or powered speakers for TV and home theater.
- Check connectivity: Wi‑Fi/AirPlay/Chromecast supports multiroom and higher fidelity than Bluetooth alone.
- Mind battery life & IP rating: For outdoor use, look for IP67/IPX7 ratings and real‑world battery tests.
- Sign in & add to cart: Some retailer discounts only appear when logged in or at checkout — test before assuming a price won’t show.
- Compare final totals: Include shipping, taxes and return policies — sometimes a slightly higher price at a preferred retailer is worth the extra protection.
