"I have an Anker Soundcore speaker that we use outside all the time but it's pretty large and would hate to lug it around for work."
I don't have this one but I'm still using an old SoundCore sport XL from like 8 years ago. Sounds great for the size, good Bluetooth speakerphone and battery life is still excellent. I'm pretty sure I don't need this, but....
I have two of the soundcore speakers for stereo sound and they are awesome. Use them outside and on the beach and the screens have some rust on them but the sound is still great. Only had them 4 years and no problems.
Ok if you are looking for smaller and portable Bluetooth I have the anker sound core. Which sounds ok and is battery powered and the ikea eneby. Also not bad but not in the same league as the ik multimedia.
Headphones or an Anker sound core haha
It's a tiny Bluetooth speaker, their best selling iirc called the sound core. I got it for $20 and it sounds good for it's size. Not audiophile but it gets the job done
I just got the soundcore and it is insane for $22. It just sounds great and has good battery life
The Soundcore is great for its size and price.
That's solid advice about the Sangean radios, those things are tanks. The U4 especially punches way above its weight for the price Just wanted to add that some of the newer Anker Soundcore speakers actually have decent build quality if OP wants something more portable, but yeah you're spot on about most combo units being hot garbage. The separate transmitter route is definitely the move for the earbud situation
I have an Anker Soundcore
JBL and Sony one was so shit, I bought them for my bicycle. I bought a bigger anker soundcore and it's amazing
I’ve had one of these for 9 years and it is still going strong. I rarely have loyalty to a company but every Anker product I have bought is solid.
