    The Good: Attractively designed wireless speaker is Bluetooth compatible, which allows you to stream stereo music from any A2DP-enabled Bluetooth audio source; built-in amplifier; decent sound; stereo line input provides compatibility with non-Bluetooth devices; upgradeable firmware.

    The Bad: Streaming wirelessly from an iPod requires an optional dongle; Bluetooth pairing can be a finicky process; single cabinet design limits stereo separation.

    The Bottom Line: The Parrot Boombox wireless Bluetooth speaker system ably combines elegant design, minimalist aesthetics, and better-than-average sound quality at an affordable price.

    Review Summary: The Parrot Boombox is a powerful set of party speakers that offer clean sound and thumping bass. Although not particularly accessible in terms of additional audio control, the performance and added advantage of Bluetooth make this a reasonably priced ...
