Speaker recommendations for a home gym

[GregI]

I've been using ear buds which have been fine but sometimes you just want that oomph that only a speaker can give for Metallica etc. Plus it gets annoying adjusting them. I'd like the ability to connect wired to the speaker plus Bluetooth connectivity. The gym is approx 30 foot by 15 foot.

Audio has always been something I don't know much about so any recommendations are welcome. Budget of around £150 but can go to £200 if it fits well. Will be buying around Black Friday so I assume speakers in the £250 range will also be within budget.

Thank you

Bluetooth speaker like JBL charge 5 would be super easy set up, but no wired connection, bluetooth only.

If you don't need the battery/portability and want better sound, something like the Edifier R1280DB Studio Monitors could work well.

Or you can go really complex and build a system from used separates, not recommended for a beginner though.

Just use google or amazon search (search for 'bluetooth speaker' or '2.0 sound system bluetooth' or similar) and make sure you check whatever you buy has decent independent reviews before buying.
