Be aware that wifi hookup may not be easy as school wifi won't have an easy option for connecting non-popular devices. Everything connected needs to be authenticated so they know who is using the network. Makes sure you can send via bluetooth from a phone. My son has the KEF LSX II. They sound great for the size and price but he is limited to bluetooth only in his dorm room. Someone mentioned Sonos Play 1...we have a Play 5 and couldn't get it to work as it must have internet.
Looking for an all-in-one just-add-speakers streamer for my son to take to college
Cambridge Audio Evo 75 is probably the top of the range, but maybe a BlueSound Powernode is good enough? Maybe there is something cheaper that fits the bill?
My son is not (yet) an audiophile, so sufficient volume may be the most important, but interested in any thoughts folks have on this topic.
