Bluetooth speakers

Want to get some stereo Bluetooth speakers for connecting to my smartphone mainly to use while I am relaxing in the bath Cool
They need to be rechargeable and have a decent base. The speakers on my phone are quite loud but lack and real clarity or bass.
Have a budget of up to around £30-£40. Any recommendations, please?

Found them to be pretty good.

Re: Bluetooth speakers

Probably not quite what you're looking for, however I have one of These (But I have the wired version) and I think it's pretty good.
I think I paid around £35-£40 for the wired one, but the bluetooth one is currently on offer and in your price range.

Re: Bluetooth speakers

That's a pretty good price now..
10 months of almost daily use at both work and home and still going strong.
Very happy with mine.

Re: Bluetooth speakers

if your planning to use it in a wet area its better to get something that's designed for it, like this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Waterprrof-Wireless-Bluetooth-Speaker-Handsfree-Mic-Bathroom-shower-Speake... (first link I found)
I got 4 of them last year for the kids and there going strong despite having been used daily in the shower including for answering the phone .....

Re: Bluetooth speakers

Well, the speakers arrived mid last week and having used them a few times am very pleased with them.
There is enough volume and bass when wanted plus the sound is crisp and clear and so much enjoyable than from the phone's speaker.
Whether rock, pop or classical I am happy with the sound Cool
