Hi all.

I’ve been looking for a pretty idiosyncratic Bluetooth speaker. Something that sounds good, isn’t in any way smart, and is just mains-powered.

Basically, I want something small for my small bedroom. No batteries to die, no unnecessary “smart” nonsense, just a fairly decent sound to listen to music/radio or podcasts from my laptop or phone.

Any suggestions?

I’m not too bothered about it being all that budget, though if I can find something like the Klipsch The One ii suggested below for a nice price 2nd hand I’d be happy. Going down a bit of a rabbit hole reading about the Klipsch job has also led me to look at the B&W a5. They come up at good used prices by the look of things, and get stellar reviews for sound quality. I also have a really fussy mate that has one of their portable jobs, and he loves that. Like his living room is full of Focal gear, but he’s happy using the B&W portable in his kitchen. I’ll see what I end up getting, and let you know how I like it
