When you want to stream to a local speaker many people immediately think Bluetooth.
Why?
Bluetooth is cheap and easy to do, works well in cars, and seems to have become a buzzword for wireless connectivity. It is also good for portable devices, although it is limited when it comes to music. A Bluetooth speaker connects wirelessly to a bluetooth enabled mobile phone or tablet and you can easily control it from your phone. Clever?
There are a few drawbacks though:
1 The sound is just ok. Not a problem with a cheapish speaker but not good enough if you are buying something decent or want to listen to music
2 When you move around the bluetooth link drops as it isnt as stable as wifi
When you have a music system with a network streamer you can control it and play music from your phone/tablet by airplay and play music from your music library/itunes library at much much higher quality and moving around doesn't affect it all!
So here are some good solutions for you:
1 We can supply a portable Bluetooth speaker for £99 that works fine
2 Move up to a wifi network speaker that sounds better with more flexibility. Options depending on performance and budget at £ 169, 249, 349, 499
  ;
3 Connect to your hifi with network/wifi, better sound again, £ 279, 299, 999 to infinity and beyond!!
