Sonos unveils the Sonos Ace: a $450 pair of Bluetooth headphones, coming June 5th
Tumblr media
Sonos announced its long rumored entry into the very competitive market of wireless over ear headphones today with the Sonos Ace. The company is touting this as a major launch, with CEO Patrick Spence saying in earnings calls this product could be what turns the company’s relatively slow financial performance around.
I’m not enough of an finance expert to say whether the Ace are in fact going to become a billion-dollar product for Sonos, or even how today’s announcement will be received by the company’s vocal fanbase, but the Ace are certainly not what I would expect if you told me Sonos was making a pair of headphones, and this launch suggests Sonos is taking a somewhat different approach to courting new customers.
The Specs
The Sonos Ace will cost $449 and go on sale June 5th. They’re bluetooth headphones and offer the features you’d expect for this price class: 40mm drivers, active noise cancellation (which Sonos claims is “world class”), and even AptX Lossless support for Android phones. They also support USB-C line-in like the Era 100, 300 and Move 2, but unlike those speakers you won't need to buy a dongle to connect your phone; a USB-C to C cable will work just fine. Sonos also includes a USB-C to 3.5mm aux cable for any devices you own with headphone jacks. The Ace come in Black or Soft White at launch, and I'm hoping to see more colors released down the line like Sonos did with the Roam.
The construction of the Ace uses plastics and some stainless steel in the headband, though not nearly as much as the Apple AirPods Max. The Ace weighs in at 312 grams compared to the Max at a hefty 385 grams. They're still heavier than the Bose QC Ultra (254 grams) and Sony WH-1000xm5 (249 grams) but Sonos promises that it has nailed the weight distribution here to avoid discomfort. As someone who sold their Airpods Max because of how heavy and uncomfortable they proved to be over time, I’m looking forward to putting the comfort of these to the test. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The Ace is mainly controlled by a single mechanism on the right earcup Sonos calls the “content key.” It’s a metal button that can also slide up and down, enabling volume and playback control from a single interaction point, similar to the digital crown on the AirPods Max or simplified playback controls on Bose headphones. This is a huge plus in my book over the finicky touch controls brands like Sony prefer. ANC control and power-on also get their own buttons but they’re not as pronounced as the content key so users should have no issue confusing any of them.
The Ace is also the first Sonos device that can be entirely set up without using the Sonos app, ironic given the ongoing controversy Sonos has courted with the app redesign. The Ace will work out of the box with any bluetooth enabled device, and customers can unlock additional functionality like enabling head-tracking for spatial audio or adjusting EQ settings in the app.
The last thing I’ll note here is that while the Sonos Ace are bluetooth headphones and will not connect to your home Wi-Fi network at all, they will offer some integration with users’ Sonos home systems at launch. If you own a Sonos Arc, and only an Arc for now, the Ace will be able to pair to your soundbar and provide an experience that “envelops you in dramatically detailed sound from all directions” according to press materials shown to Pixel Dash. Sonos calls this feature TV audio swap, and this is what sets the Ace apart from all its competitors on paper at least, and if all else is equal, could be the difference maker when buyers pick them up.
The Angle
Sonos seems to be pushing the Ace more as an entryway into its ecosystem than another cog in users' existing setups. It only connects to the company’s most expensive soundbar at launch (the cheaper Beam and Ray soundbars will get Ace support down the road but Sonos only says that's "coming soon"). Wireless, lossless audio listening is limited to android phones capable of AptX Lossless, or use of a USB-C cable.
Without direct Wi-Fi streaming to the Ace from the Sonos app, it's also important to note that listening to Dolby Atmos music for iPhone users could be quite difficult if my past experience with other non-AirPods devices is anything to go off.
I don't want to sound too dismissive of TV audio swapping, just that some Sonos fans may be disappointed that this is the only way the Ace can integrate with a Sonos system. That's not to say Sonos doesn't have an advantage with how this feature has been implemented.
Tumblr media
When pairing the Ace with an Arc, the headphones connect over a 5Ghz direct Wi-Fi connection, the same way other Sonos products like a subwoofer or speakers set as surrounds do. This connection is rock-solid and also lossless.
(Edit 5/22- The Verge is reporting that the connection between the Sonos Ace and Arc is 345kbps, or slightly higher than the 320kbps that AAC bluetooth headphones utilize. We'll need to test how aggressive and noticeable the compression is in our review before drawing further conclusions.)
While AirPods can connect to an Apple TV 4K to provide a personal surround soundscape to users as well, they do so over a hyper compressed Bluetooth signal. Roku's long-standing feature to let users connect wired headphones to some of its remotes also leans on Bluetooth. Sonos' implementation should be able to send uncompressed, Dolby Atmos audio to the Ace fed directly from your TV’s eARC port, so hopefully Sonos puts all that extra data to good use.
Sonos added that later this year it’s launching a feature called TrueCinema, which will alter the Ace’s audio processing to make it seem like the surround and Atmos effects are coming from the room instead of the headphones. According to press materials shown to Pixel Dash, “TrueCinema technology will map your space and render a surround sound experience so realistic you'll forget you're wearing headphones.” I’m assuming this will be an expansion on Sonos’ TruePlay technology that will give the Ace enough data to map sound more accurately than they will at launch. Pixel Dash has reached out to Sonos to clarify how exactly TrueCinema will work and will include any response in our review of the Ace.
Sonos is offering a compelling package with the Ace. The price is fairly in line with the rest of the premium headphones market and the features match up as well. Whether or not the added ability to pair to a Sonos Arc will be the difference maker is something only time will tell. If the sound quality and comfort are able to best Sony, Bose, and Apple then that might be enough to make first-time Sonos buyers choose the Ace as their first product, and I’m sure Sonos hopes those buyers will pick up an Arc down the line if they're interested in putting TV audio swapping to the test.
The major question is if existing Sonos customers will buy the Ace in droves as well. Every Sonos fan knows that these systems are built piece by piece with the expansion of your Sonos system becoming somewhat of a habit. The Ace's limitations as a new piece to a Sonos system could leave some users disappointed, but since Sonos says the Ace are its most requested product, I'm willing to bet plenty of existing customers will be placing their pre-orders today.

Sony ULT Field 1 è l'altoparlante Bluetooth perfetto per ogni occasione - Recensione
Tumblr media
Il Sony ULT Field 1 è senza dubbio il diffusore Bluetooth più piccolo nella gamma del produttore giapponese. Nonostante le dimensioni contenute, riesce a offrire un suono sorprendentemente potente grazie alla tecnologia di potenziamento dei bassi. Ideale per l'utilizzo all'aperto, il suo maggiore punto debole rimane l'app proprietaria piuttosto basilare e un'autonomia non eccellente. Al prezzo consigliato di 139 euro non riesce tuttavia a eguagliare le performance dell'agguerrito rivale JBL Flip 6. Punti Salienti Il nuovo altoparlante portatile Sony ULT Field 1 offre dimensioni e peso ridotti rispetto ad altri modelli della stessa categoria pur mantenendo un audio potente e di alta qualità. L'altoparlante misura 7,9 x 20,6 x 7,6 centimetri (altezza, larghezza, profondità) e pesa circa 635 grammi, disponibile nei colori nero, grigio, bianco sporco o arancione. La forma ricoperta di tessuto conferisce a questo speaker un aspetto accattivante e versatile. Simile al Sony SRS-XG300, presenta lievi restringimenti laterali che agevolano l'impugnatura. Gli estremi sono rivestiti in silicone per una presa confortevole. Sotto la griglia si notano un tweeter e un woofer frontali inclinati di 15 gradi che garantiscono un suono bilanciato. Dei radiatori passivi posti alle estremità diffondono i bassi ampliandone la potenza in modo uniforme. Include inoltre un robusto laccio per il trasporto. Purtroppo Sony non specifica le caratteristiche tecniche dei driver. Il Bluetooth 5.3 assicura connettività stabile, i codec AAC e SBC ottimizzano la qualità audio, la modalità multipunto consente di collegare più device in contemporanea. Grazie a Google Fast Pair l'accoppiamento è immediato. È possibile utilizzare due altoparlanti in modalità stereo collegandoli via app. Design e materiali Sul fianco superiore, ricoperto da silicone, si trova una serie di pulsanti tra cui accensione, accoppiamento Bluetooth, riproduzione, aumento volume, diminuzione volume e pulsante ULT. Il pulsante riproduzione risponde o termina anche le chiamate, oltre a navigare tra i brani a seconda della pressione ripetuta (due volte per avanti, tre per indietro). Il pulsante ULT, che presenta un effetto multicolore, funziona in modo diverso rispetto a quello sulle cuffie ULT Wear e gli altoparlanti ULT Field di dimensioni maggiori. Su questi dispositivi modifica diverse modalità con bassi potenziati, mentre sul Field 1 agisce semplicemente come interruttore per intensificare la risposta dei bassi. Sul retro, un coperchio a scatto protegge la porta USB-C per il cavetto di ricarica incluso da USB-A a USB-C. I pulsanti sono facili da usare e l'interfaccia è intuitiva. Un grado di protezione IP67 è ciò che mi aspetto da un altoparlante esterno. Il Field 1 è completamente antipolvere e può sopravvivere ad immersioni fino a un metro di profondità per 30 minuti, purché il coperchio posteriore sia ben chiuso. Ovviamente, l'audio Bluetooth non trasmette bene sotto acqua, ma il vantaggio di questa classificazione è che puoi tenere l'altoparlante vicino alla tua piscina o sul terrazzo senza problemi. L'ULT Field 1 dovrebbe durare circa 12 ore a volume al 50% e funzione ULT disattivata. Questa stima scende a sole 3 ore se si alza il volume al massimo e si attiva la funzione ULT. È un arco piuttosto ampio, quindi è meglio mantenere il volume a un livello ragionevole per ottenere il massimo tempo di riproduzione. Sony afferma che la batteria impiega circa 5 ore per ricaricarsi completamente. Applicazione Ho testato l'app Sony Music Center (disponibile per Android e iOS) con l'altoparlante Field 1. In cima alla pagina principale, appare l'indicatore della durata della batteria dell'altoparlante. Seguono tre sezioni: My Library, Music e Settings. La prima richiede l'accesso alla tua libreria musicale per poter visualizzare tutti i tuoi file locali nell'app. Nella parte superiore di questa sezione appaiono varie schede di navigazione, mentre i controlli di riproduzione e volume si trovano nella parte inferiore. Toccando il pulsante Music, si accede al lettore musicale predefinito. Sul mio iPhone, ad esempio, si apre Apple Music. La sezione Settings offre tre opzioni regolabili: Sound, Power Option e System. Toccando Sound, puoi scegliere tra Custom EQ, ULT Power Sound (questo attiva il pulsante ULT) o Off. La sezione Custom EQ permette solo regolazioni di base tramite gli slider per bassi, medi e alti. Puoi anche scegliere di dare priorità alla qualità del suono o alla stabilità della connessione. Seleziona Power Option per passare tra le modalità Stamina e Auto Standby. La prima non è disponibile se apporti modifiche alla sezione Sound, mentre la seconda causa lo spegnimento dell'altoparlante dopo 15 minuti di inattività. Toccando il pulsante System, si apre solo una schermata con il nome dell'altoparlante. Un secondo menu Impostazioni nell'angolo in alto a destra consente di regolare la funzione di spegnimento automatico, aggiungere app (puoi creare scorciatoie per Google Maps e YouTube), accedere agli avvisi di Sony, visualizzare la versione corrente del software e disabilitare le notifiche. Qualità del suono Ho messo alla prova l'altoparlante con la modalità ULT attivata e disattivata. La maggior parte delle persone preferirà tenerla accesa, dato che altrimenti i driver suonano piuttosto sottili. Si può provare a regolare l'equalizzatore dall'app, ma ho ottenuto bassi più corposi e alte frequenze più brillanti con la funzione ULT attiva. Con ciò in mente, l'ho lasciata abilitata per i test. In brani con un intenso contenuto di sub-bass, lo speaker offre dei bassi discreti per le sue dimensioni. Parlando del SRS-XE200, ho notato che il modulo Field 1 offre una maggiore definizione e un suono complessivamente migliore rispetto al modello precedente. Pensavo che il vecchio altoparlante suonasse spesso vago e sembrava mancare di chiarezza nelle frequenze medie. Tra le altre caratteristiche chiave per il profilo sonoro del Field 1 c'è il pulsante ULT. Aggiunge un ulteriore boost alle basse frequenze, simile al tasto dei bassi presente sui precedenti altoparlanti Sony. Funziona bene e conferisce all'altoparlante più piccolo una presenza corposa. Con il pulsante ULT disattivato, il suono tende ad essere troppo vuoto ad alti volumi per generi ricchi di bassi. È prevedibile, considerando che si tratta di un altoparlante da 130 euro. Il pulsante ULT si trova anche sulle nuove cuffie ULT Wear e sull'altoparlante ULT Field 7. Ma a differenza di questi dispositivi, il Field 1 ha solo un livello di "ULT-ness", anziché due come gli altri. Ancora una volta, essendo un altoparlante più piccolo, probabilmente uno è sufficiente. Ho lasciato il pulsante ULT attivato. Con il pulsante acceso, il suono è pieno. Dopo i primi giorni, mi sono ritrovato a lasciarlo acceso indipendentemente dalla musica che stavo ascoltando. Sebbene la funzionalità ULT fosse buona, odiavo gli effetti sonori che produceva quando veniva attivato o disattivato. Il rumore era troppo forte, durava troppo e era fastidioso. Non sembrava appropriato per nessun contesto. Vedere la luce ULT accendersi o spegnersi era un'indicazione più che sufficiente. Ho scoperto che l'altoparlante non aveva bisogno di essere impostato oltre il 30% del volume in una camera da letto o anche in un soggiorno di dimensioni moderate per produrre un buon suono. Si comportava bene anche in un ambiente esterno vicino a piscine o vasche idromassaggio. Conclusioni Il Sony ULT Field 1 non rivoluziona il concetto di altoparlante Bluetooth portatile, ma non commette neanche errori gravi. Ci sarebbe piaciuto che l'app fosse un po' più raffinata e che la batteria durasse più a lungo e si ricaricasse più velocemente. È abbastanza versatile per adattarsi a tutti i tipi di clima e produce un suono sufficientemente ampio da fornire musica di sottofondo per riunioni e feste. Ho apprezzato la sua forma e il suono, ma ho particolarmente amato il suo prezzo di vendita di 139€ su Amazon, che lo rende un'opzione competitiva tra gli altri altoparlanti Bluetooth a basso costo.

#5. The Best Dolby Atmos Home Theater System: Klipsch 7.2.2 Reference Premiere Home Theater System with Marantz SR7013 9.2-Channel AV Receiver
Klipsch 7.2 System
Why it won
Two notable, top notch, sound pioneers: One known for dynamite, pull out all the stops or-return home sound and excellent cabinetry, the other for top tier enhancement and driving edge innovation. Between them, two legends – Saul Marantz and Paul Klipsch, more than 100 years experience, and each grant in the book. Welcome to the best encompass sound all things considered.
A couple of years back, the sound masters at Dolby made sense of an approach to settle on what some decision "3D encompass sound" by means of another innovation called Dolby Atmos. (Atmos, as in environment.) What Dolby Atmos truly does is make a layer of sound that not just floats over the crowd, it drifts in various territories over the crowd. Also, it does it so well, you can really pinpoint explicit sounds in explicit spots – noticeable all around. The net impact: Thrilling, invigorating, stunning – in any event, stunning now and again. ("Try not to stress kids, those monsters aren't genuine, it's only a film.")
In spite of the fact that most AV recipients today come Dolby Atmos-empowered, numerous shoppers never include Dolby Atmos speakers. (Abnormal. Similar to living on a boat and never purchasing sails.) So we intentionally concocted a marvelous, yet generally reasonable home venue that really conveys on all fronts: left, right, focus, sides, back, beneath (by method of the subwoofer) and now, with Dolby Atmos, noticeable all around above, as well.
One more thing: If you pick this home theater framework with the parts we prescribe – and you're going to turn it on just because – start with a greater than-life, blockbuster film. The new Jurassic Park, Incredibles 2, whatever. Blockbusters are designed by sound specialists to exploit stature channels, so you're ensured to get the all out impact: pterosaurs and ancient bugs flying around your parlor, jump bombarding the couch, and so forth. You'll know why this specific framework so effectively wins our "Best Dolby Atmos" class.
Features
Mood killer the TV, and this Klipsch/Marantz home theater arrangement conveys an intense, audiophile-commendable, music framework – one that asks for a quality turntable. Despite the fact that with Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and Airplay worked in, in addition to HEOS remote multi-room music streaming, you can play practically anything from anyplace by means of any brilliant gadget.
The two Klipsch RP-8060 floorstanding speakers are not just fresh out of the box new, they're higher on the pecking list than Klipsch's for quite some time proclaimed Reference II arrangement. Likewise valid for the RP-504C Center Channel Speaker, which at right around 3-feet wide and 34 pounds is the Serena Williams of focus speakers. read more

The Sonos Era is here
Big props to Chris Welch and The Verge for absolutley nailing the leaks on the Sonos Era 100 and 300, which were announced today for $249 and $449 respectively. Most of the leaks I talked about last time were confirmed today so I want to focus on which of my own speculations were right and wrong.
First: I was 100% right about how Sonos would utilize the Era 300 in a Sonos Arc-based home theater system. Sonos confirmed the 300's side-firing drivers work in tandem with the Arc to create two virtual channels next to the listener, creating a 7.1.4 setup. This should bring a notable upgrade to the Arc's cinematic prowess. My Arc system is already very good at placing sound effects right next to me for Atmos playback, but I've been unable to experience standard 7.1 mixes from my movie library until now and very much look forward to putting the Era 300-enhanced system through the paces. The two additional height channels should also be a big upgrade to overall immersion from an already impressive soundbar.
Second: I was also right about Sonos claiming to offer a wider soundstage from the upgraded Era 100. The two tweeters allow the single box to produce the unaltered stereo versions of songs, plus increase the listening sweet spot in a stereo pair of Era 100s. I'll be curious to see exactly how large that new sweet spot is, and also if the 100 is as directional as the Sonos One. The 100 looks to be as notable an upgrade as the leaks suggested and should be as much an easy recommendation as the One was.
When it comes to things I was wrong about: Sonos did not see fit to offer Bluetooth LE audio support on these speakers. In fact, these speakers may not even be upgradable to the superior Bluetooth spec. Both speakers are listed as being Bluetooth 5.0 compatible, but LE Audio requires Bluetooth 5.2. It could be that these speakers contain the required hardware but don't offer the features necessary to be certified for Bluetooth 5.2 or 5.3 (the currect spec). Until we know more, expect Bluetooth performance on the Era speakers to be as reliable and solid as any well implemented Bluetooth 5.0 device, just not as next-gen as forthcoming LE Audio based solutions.
It also seems like you won't be able to use the Era 100 or 300 as USB-audio devices quite yet. All material and reporting from Sonos suggests you'll need a line-in adapter for any hardwired device usage. I can't see why this won't be enabled in a future software update but for now, you'll be buying dongles to connect these speakers to your record players or computers.
I only have one big disappointment from today: the omission of Sonosnet support from these speakers, and the seeming hint of the feature's sunsetting. I won't get too bogged down in these details, but it is sad to see Sonos abandoning one of the best features of its platform. While you will be able to connect an Era 100 or 300 to ethernet via a USB-C adapter, that's just for connecting the speakers themselves to the internet instead of Wi-Fi. And the devices won't work on any Sonos network that only uses the Sonosnet protocol. You're being forced to Wi-Fi even if you have poor network conditions in your home.
I understand that Sonosnet is a very old feature, and that few customers probably know it's even available, but it was a reliable way to get your Sonos speakers connected in even the most challenging wireless situations. While Wi-Fi 6's support for hundreds of connected devices on a network probably solves a lot of the problems Sonosnet did, it's still dissapointing to see it gone. I'll be sure to ask Sonos more about this when I get time to review the Era speakers.
Overall I'm quite pleased with today's announcement and look forward to reviewing the speakers myself (probably in April or May). Until then I'll keep my eyes peeled for other outlets' reviews, and finally being able to enjoy native playback of Atmos tracks from Apple Music on my Sonos Arc on March 28th (thank you to the Sonos and Apple Music teams for working that out).

The Best Wireless and Bluetooth Speakers of 2018 Cut the Cord
Wireless speakers are everywhere these days. Big, small, portable, expensive, cheap, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi... the sheer amount of choice can seem overwhelming. But our top picks are sure to have at least one speaker that's right for you. Before anything else, though, you need to decide how you want to go wireless.
Bluetooth or Wi-Fi?
Bluetooth is the most common wireless music streaming standard, but it isn't the only one. Bluetooth is a point-to-point wireless system, pairing a transmitter (your phone or computer) with a receiver (your speaker) to play music. It's very direct and easy to set up, and can stream pretty high-quality music thanks to technological advancements that have greatly improved audio fidelity over what it was a few years ago. Bluetooth generally doesn't have any multi-room tricks in itself, though some speakers can set up stereo pairs with the help of an app, while others can create a wireless mesh among multiple speakers for multi-room audio. It isn't quite as high-fidelity or as powerful as Wi-Fi multi-room audio, however.
                        Wi-Fi audio includes standards like Apple AirPlay and Google Cast, along with various manufacturers' own Wi-Fi streaming platforms, like Sonos. Wi-Fi can handle more bandwidth than Bluetooth, so it can support higher fidelity audio. It can also integrate into your home network, so you can easily play audio from any device connected to your Wi-Fi without pairing anything. The trade-off is that Wi-Fi music systems generally require a Wi-Fi network to connect to, so they can't be used portably with your smartphone like Bluetooth speakers. The different Wi-Fi standards also mean various services might or might not be available to stream over the device, though this is less of a problem than it has been in the past thanks to Google Cast and Sonos' lengthy lists of supported third-party services.
Most new speakers available feature some kind of wireless support, whether they're clip-on bike speakers or big soundbars. With some exceptions, any speaker you pick up at an electronics store will be able to stream audio either over Bluetooth or Wi-Fi. Your speaker might even be able to handle both wireless methods. Check if your Wi-Fi speaker has a Bluetooth mode for using it on the go.
What Kind of Speaker?
Besides the type of wireless connection, you need to think about what style of speaker you want. Smaller, battery-powered speakers (usually Bluetooth) are useful because you can take them anywhere, but they don't get particularly loud. Larger speakers generally offer fuller sound and richer bass, but they can be more expensive and are often not portable.
Besides single speakers, you can also find stereo pairs designed for desktop computers and home theater speaker systems like soundbars, soundplates, and home-theaters-in-a-box. These speakers are obviously not portable at all, but if you want a centerpiece sound system for your living room or office they're likely your best choice.
Portability
For a speaker to be portable, it needs to both be small and light enough to easily carry around, and be equipped with a battery so it can run without being plugged in. Of course, "small" and "light" are relative; tiny speakers with carabiners let you clip them to your backpack and take them on hikes, while much bigger and heavier speakers might be intended only to be taken from room to room in your home.
Bluetooth speakers are usually portable, but they don't have to be. If a Bluetooth speaker is too big to easily carry around, or doesn't have a battery, it won't be portable.
Since Wi-Fi speakers rely on a separate network to enable multi-speaker and multi-room audio playback, they're rarely portable. After all, portability doesn't matter if you need to be connected to your home's hotspot. There are exceptions, though, and Wi-Fi speakers can still be portable if they have batteries, and ideally can create an ad-hoc Wi-Fi network with your phone.
Durability
Not all portable speakers are built to be carried around outdoors, or used by the pool. Rugged speakers can handle splashes, dunks, drops, and gunk and keep running. If you try that with the non-rugged speakers on this list, however, you'll find yourself with a brick instead of an audio device. Look for speakers with IPX ratings and guarantees of water and shock resistance if you want to carry them around to the beach, the lake, the slopes, or the sewers. Our guide to IP ratingsexplains what those numbers mean, so you can know whether your speaker can handle getting dunked in the pool, or if it simply will stay intact in a light drizzle.
For more, see our list of the best outdoor speakers.
Audio Quality
Unless portability is at the top of your priority list, sound quality is paramount. Plenty of speakers don't offer much in the way of features, but produce top-notch audio. Big bass isn't for everyone, but unless your speaker is downright tiny, it should be able to reproduce low frequencies accurately without distorting at high volumes. Clarity is more important than sheer power, and a balanced, clean sound should be your goal when shopping for a speaker. If you want a sound system that can drive a whole party instead of just fill a small room, keep the size of the speaker in mind; generally, the bigger a speaker is, the louder it can get while still sounding good.
See How We Test Speakers
As mentioned earlier, in the early days of wireless audio Bluetooth was far inferior to Wi-Fi standards because of limited bandwidth and audio compression. Those problems have been largely solved, and Bluetooth 4.0 (not to mention 5.0) and its relevant audio codecs can transmit excellent quality audio. Wi-Fi can still get an edge purely due to the available bandwidth, and if you want to listen to lossless music on services like Tidal you should probably go with Wi-Fi over Bluetooth. Of course, a wired connection can be better than both thanks to either faster data speeds for digital signals or simply the fact that the wire is carrying the analog sound without any conversion. But this guide is for wireless speakers.
Voice Assistants
Voice assistants let you simply tell your speaker what to play instead of looking through your smartphone. They were initially very limited, closed systems only available on first-party devices, like Alexa on the Amazon Echo and Google Assistant on the Google Home, but that's steadily changing. More and more third-party speakers are integrating some form of voice assistant, either Google Assistant or Alexa.
These voice assistants are useful for more than just playing music. You can ask them for weather forecasts, sports scores, unit conversions, and even language translation. They also generally support third-party skills that let you do anything from order pizza to play trivia games. If you have other smart home devices, you might even be able to integrate them as well, letting you control the lights and thermostat with your voice.
Voice assistant speakers have one universal requirement: Wi-Fi. They need an internet connection, and without one voice recognition and all of the processing needed to find your music, answer your questions, and control your smart home devices simply won't work.
