Default Have we all lost our way..

I think the only reason they exist is that if you stream stuff from a radio
station in the lounge use FM on the portable and Dab in the bedroom the time
delay causes the whole thing to be completely unlistenable sometimes by many
seconds. This way one presumes you have a central source and then use radio
to send it around to all parts. However many people seem to be under the
impression its the best quality, and though some is not absolutely crap Hi
fi stereo it certainly is not, at least not to my ears.

Its the kind of sound we used to get from a mini stereo but with the
speakers in the wrong places!

I think that's the point of most of these portable speakers, they sound
better than tinny little radios etc; you stick one in the kitchen, the
bedroom or wherever and fling sounds to them over wifi or bluetooth, but
you're not going to sit down in front of them and listen.
