Hi all,

I've run out of space on my desk and have decided that a bluetooth speaker might be an alternative to connect my Windows 10 PC. I don't want to spend too much, not much more than £100.

Does anyone know of any mains powered bluetooth speakers that are reasonably good? All of the ones that I come across are portable and battery powered!

Thanks :)
 
I wonder how many Bluetooth speakers use the mains or USB power, rather than battery when they are plugged in to charge?

If none, then it's going to be hard if not impossible to find a small Bluetooth speaker that runs solely off mains, because that defeats the purpose of the design. Bigger non portable speakers will use mains, but then size comes into question.

What space have you got to play with?

Just get one of the portable ones and leave it plugged in?

Probably have a difficult time finding a small one that's designed to be mains powered. Small ones are portable and therefore would need a battery to be portable.

Thanks all. I probably wasn't that clear but it doesn't have to be small and doesn't have to go on my desk. Just nearby will be sufficient. Are there larger mains powered bluetooth options?

Cheers :)
 
Thanks all, what is the difference between the Cambridge Audio Go and the Minx?

I will also take a look at the Edifier R1280db's but not sure where I can put them really! I currently have Edifier R1600T (I think) and they are on my desk currently. Due to changes in space I thought wireless and powered away from desk would be a better solution!
 
Another solution could be a low profile sound bar? How would these compare to the Cambridge Audios?

If I had a sound bar I could connect up my TV and PC potentially?

Thanks!
