Hi Max, I guess it all depends on what you want to spend, but you would definitely want something not too small in order to get good volume out of it. I quite like my Turtleshell 2 speaker from Outdoor Technology. One good thing about that speaker is that it is highly water resistant and dust proof which would be important in your shop. I also do woodworking and have a shop in my basement and while I have a good dust collector and air filter, it sometimes still does get dusty. Having said that, I use my Sonos system to bring sound to my shop and specifically I have a set of Logitech wired computer speakers with a subwover connected to my Sonos Connect which is actually upstairs in my office, but it happens to be basically right above my shop so it was quite easy to run an RCA cable through a hole in the fllor and all I needed was a 12 foot cable. This particular Logitech speaker setup has an inline volume control which I mounted on the wall in my shop so I can easily walk up to it and set the volume to whatever I want. Anyhow, below are links to the Turtleshell 2 and the new Big Turtleshell from Outdoor Tech on Amazon, but given the $229 price tag on the Big Turtleshell I'd not recommend it because if you want to spend that much you'd be better off getting into a Sonos Play 1 for $199 or a Play 3 for $299, much better sound quality and all the options in the world when it comes to streaming free and subscription based music and all with a fully accessible app.

Take care, Sieghard -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Agent086b Sent: Sunday, May 03, 2015 9:53 PM To: iPhone List > Subject: Bluetooth Speakers Hello all, since purchasing a new router I am now able to stream music from my Mac to my iPhone in my workshop. I could not do this with my old one. What I would like now to connect to the phone is to find a Bluetooth speaker to give me more volume in the shed. I am not looking for top quality sound as it will be competing with woodworking sounds etc. I find the sound is a bit soft on the phone from the small speaker. Thanks for any suggestions. Max.Î -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list. All new members to the this list are moderated by default.
