Any Bluetooth wireless speakers that you like?

I'm looking to add sound to the living room in a WAF friendly manner.   Gotta be inconspicuous and no wires showing!

I'm thinking a wireless Bluetooth speaker that I can connect to from tablet or Smartphone running my favorite music apps is the way to go.

Any particular good sounding ones that you have heard?

The retro-styled Marshalls would fit in aesthetically I think.  My wife likes retro!  Maybe the portable model.

Thoughts?

Thanks for the suggestions.  Some new ones there for me.   

Im very close to pushing the button for the Libratone.    It would go nicely in that room plus I like the form factor omni approach and features.   The much more expensive Bang And Olafson is another I liked.

mapman,
for the size (& on-par pricing) I found the UE Boom2 to sound the best. it packs a wallop in its bass for its size.

for a much larger room I like this Sony bluetooth speaker:

The Bose bluetooth speakers are also very good but highly priced - the Soundlink Mini ($199) & Soundlink iii ($299).

here’s another one (if you want the option of playing a CD as well) from Sony:

Mofi,

Do you have the Cambridge Oontz Angle 3 (small) or Angle 3XL (large)? I'm looking at both of these and they look promising. The prices have been marked down dramatically from the original MSRP and they both look like good values if they sound OK.


Thanks,


TIC

Good stuff.  Keep them coming.   

I want ant something probably big enough to cover a somewhat larger room yet portable.   Omni sound is very appealing.   Libratone still leading but ultimate ears is smaller and cost less and might fit the bill.

Here are a couple of more options:

Riva Audio Turbo X

Peachtree Audio deepblue2
http://www.peachtreeaudio.com/deepblue2.html

The Turbo X has received fairly positive comments on head-fi.  The deepblue2 is a little big to be considered truly portable.  Neither is as WAF friendly as the Libratone.

I don't own either as I've had a Big Jambox for a few years.  I'm intrigued by the Turbo X though.
