What Are Bluetooth Speakers?
Bluetooth speakers are freestanding devices that are capable of receiving digital audio signals wirelessly from most modern electronics. The only requirement is that the media output must be Bluetooth capable, which most computers, laptops, smartphones and tablets are. This means you can place it in a centralized location for group listening instead of everyone crowding around one desk or chair.

Due to their wireless design, they offer versatility and freedom to move away from the playback device within a certain range.
