Chirping birds are great, but sometimes you might want a break from nature.
There are many to choose from, including several high-end products costing $200 or more. Some of these might be the right choice for use in the home, but background music while gardening isn’t exactly critical listening, so I opted to try out some inexpensive models. To my surprise, I was able to find several good choices for under $50. I found one decent one for $29. These are the current prices. I got mine for a lot less during Amazon’s Prime Day sale.
After testing several speakers, I settled on the $42 Sony SRS-XB13. A very close runner-up was the $50 stereo Soundcore 3 by Anker. I was also impressed by the $42 Soundcore Anker Mini 3. The fourth-place contender was the $29 stereo Raymate Bluetooth Speaker. The Sony model and the Soundcore Anker Mini 3 are round monaural speakers that resemble a miniature subwoofer but handle the full range of frequencies from high treble to low bass. Frankly, it was hard to pick a winner in terms of sound quality. The Soundcore Mini 3 is a little smaller and slightly lighter, but the Sony comes in more colors and has a longer strap, which made it easy to hang on the handlebar of my bicycle to be entertained on my ride.
