They’re all friendly and compatible, they all talk to each other through walls and ceilings, and now they all include Bluetooth® and Wi-Fi®. It’s a comfortable listen – insightful and clean – and while it may favour a club beat, doesn’t turn its nose up to the more folksy sound of a man and his guitar. The company’s spirit of invention, passion for excellence, and commitment to extraordinary experiences can be found around the world - everywhere Bose does business.He covers the gamut of gadgets and is a notable reviewer of mobile accessories and portable audio products, including headphones and speakers. When reviewing the previous SoundTouch 20, we were disappointed by the lack of WAV and FLAC support, but with both now compatible, things are looking up. Everything is tested by our dedicated team of in-house reviewers in our custom-built test rooms in London, Reading and Bath. Combining all music platforms in one, the Bose SoundTouch 20 series III gives you access to all your favourite music in one single place.

SoundTouch has always been about the experience -- what listening to streaming music at home should be like,” said John Roselli, general manager of Bose Wireless Speakers. In addition to Pandora and Internet radio, the company has said it plans to add IHeartRadio and Deezer in the second half of 2014. The Bose SoundTouch 20 is a likeable streaming speaker with capable performance and great sound, but it needs to support more music services. Unlike with Samsung and Sonos devices, there is no "play from my device" feature unless you set up a DLNA server on it (via Windows Media Player, for example).The SoundTouch 20 also features a "wired" Ethernet connection for those who prefer it, but Bose is pushing the simplicity of its system and how easy it is to set up "using your existing home Wi-Fi network" and nothing else. But if you want the added convenience and functionality of multi-room and wi-fi as well, the SoundTouch 20 III is a more pertinent choice – not to mention a better proposition than its predecessors offered a year or two ago.

Get this Bose SoundTouch 20 Bluetooth speaker and fill your house with music that will make you dance like no one’s watching. However, Apple device owners can use Apple AirPlay 2 to group the SoundTouch 20 speaker – Series III with Bose Home Speaker family products for multi-room synchronized playback. It supports popular services such as Deezer, Pandora, SIRIUS Internet Radio, Spotify, TuneIn, iHeartRadio, and iTunes.

To get your music up and running, you simply press one of the preset buttons that's on the speaker or the included remote, or within one of the apps. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Bose is working on offering a setup through its iOS and Android apps (a feature Sonos offers), but currently that feature isn't available. With SoundTouch, you’ll be able to play it through Bluetooth, from our app or theirs, or at the touch of a button.

While the SoundTouch Controller app is entrusted with multi-room set-up – grouping (and ungrouping) speakers is intuitive, and juggling different speakers is easy ­– it’s just as useful as a remote control for a SoundTouch speaker. We had a little trouble with a corporate firewall (no other wireless system we've set up encountered this), but you shouldn't run into this problem at home.
