With time the concept of speakers has evolved. Gone are the days when a speaker was connected with numerous wires and consumed considerable space in your living/bedroom. Modern speakers have evolved with a more compact yet rugged design that you can carry to the beach or a bar-b-q party. The latest bunch of speakers depend a lot on Bluetooth as a connection medium and try to retain the sound they are expected to deliver.
