Recommended Bluetooth or Wifi speaker?

Wed Apr 23, 2014 4:47 pm

Hi all.

Has anybody connected a Bluetooth or WiFi speaker to their rpi?
I have my rpi setup to play music from my NAS drive which I control from my phone, however it is currently restricted to indoor use as the speakers need to be plugged in to the rpi.
As the weather is getting better I would like to be able to play music outside too, so a BT or WiFi speaker seems the best option.

I have seen loads of things about turning an rpi into a Bluetooth speaker, but non about using a BT speaker with an rpi.

Any recommendations?
Cheers
Adam

I've had my Supertooth Disco Bluetooth speaker for about a year. Good sound and battery for the price. I don't use it with the Pi, so no help there, sorry.
