Miguel Sanchez Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 I'm needing one. Anyone got any suggestions in the £50-£100 range? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_bully_wee Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 Depends what you're after really, does having a waterproof one matter to you? If not then Bose SoundLink minis are fantastic, I picked one up last year, but they RRP at £170 and only about twice a year do they drop into the ~£100 bracket. If it's an urgent need then that's probably not your best bet, mind. Ultimate Ears are also a good brand and some of the mid-range Sony ones are good pick-ups. Ultimately, I would recommend just identifying a few in your range and watching a couple of YouTube reviews for each, which will talk about the strengths and weaknesses of each in terms of sound, build and features. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melanius Mullarkey Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 Would second the Bose. Plenty of bass if that’s your thing mind you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empty It Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 I bought a JBL Flip 5 and would recommend, decent loud speaker with good quality and also waterproof. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This. If you can find a Bose sale, any of the Soundlink range will be decent. 44 minutes ago, TAFKAM said: I'd get something from Anker, at the high end of that budget it'll be as good as something a lot more expensive. If not, this. Everything I have used with Anker has been decent. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miguel Sanchez Posted July 10, 2021 Author Share Posted July 10, 2021 Forgot to post in here again. I got an Anker Soundcore 3 for £50. I've had it on properly for the first time today and it's a bit... rattle-y when it's turned up really loud (actually sort of loud (actually any kind of volume over the equivalent of a low murmur)), but I don't really want or need it up too high so that's not much of a problem. There's also an app to download to manage the settings (of course there is) but you can't get this for Windows, so if you have it connected to a PC you'll also need to have it connected to a phone to use that as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've used lots of small portable speakers and this is by far the best. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamaldo Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 Does anyone hear have a Sonos Bluetooth speaker? I got a Sonos Roam SL speaker today but I can't fully get it setup through the app. When I try I get the message "the connection to your sonos roam sl was lost because an app permission was disabled", but it doesn't tell me what permission needs to be enabled and they all appear to be enabled anyway. After that it tells me to use another mobile device as it can't connect through the one I'm on. The app does initially recognise the speaker as it appears on the settings page but after that I'm getting nowhere. Any advice? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
