8 Best Bluetooth Shower Speakers – Waterproof and Wireless

The great thing about wireless Bluetooth speakers is that you can take them anywhere.

What’s even better is that most of the latest speakers are waterproof, making the pool and beach highly desirable places to consume music.

But what about the shower? Is there anything stopping the latest episode of your favourite true crime podcast from joining you in the shower? Not really, but there are a few things to be mindful of when shopping for your next wireless speaker.

What to Look for in a Shower Speaker

The key here is obviously waterproofing. The current industry standard for wireless speakers is the IP67 rating which ensures speakers are water and dustproof. Most manufacturers state that IP67 means their speakers can be submerged in water 1.5 metres deep for up to 30 minutes. So some steam and shower spray for several minutes a day should have little effect on the lifespan of the speaker.

Next up is sound quality. All eight of these speakers were selected for providing quality audio reproduction without sacrificing their shower friendly size.

However, it’s hard to get an ear on sound performance without hearing from a speaker yourself. So our advice is to head down to your local appliance store and test the display speakers or to read the online reviews.

Whatever your preference, here are the 8 best shower speakers perfect for adding a soundtrack to your daily routine:

1. JBL Clip 4

Clip 4 is the eye catching speaker from JBL, which deserves a permanent place on a backpack, by the pool or hanging in your shower. This compact JBL Bluetooth speaker can provide rich audio and punchy bass thanks to its 40mm drivers, all while retaining that appealing pocket friendly size.

Stream music wirelessly from a phone, tablet or device of your choice and hang the speaker easily using the integrated carabiner. The JBL Clip 3 was hugely popular, and now Clip 4 adds an IP67 rating for waterproofing and improved dust resistance. The battery life is good, coming in at around ten hours between charges. Three hours is required to reach full battery capacity.

There are seven different colours available for Australia with an entirely different palette for the USA. When a favourite song comes on, you must Clip it! Clip it good.

This speaker is also designed with an IP67 waterproof rating, meaning it can be submerged in water for up to 30 minutes at a time. That’s plenty of time, even for the biggest water waster in your household. Two Wonderboom speakers can even be wirelessly connected via a button on top for that appealing stereo sound.

The vibrant two-tone fabrics are available in five styles, each with a matching sports loop for hanging off a shower caddy. Battery life for the Wonderboom 2 is up to 13 hours, with 2.6 hours required to reach full charge.

3. Ampere Shower Power

Anyone looking to limit their environmental impact will adore the Shower Power from Ampere. This wireless speaker is made from 100 per cent recycled plastic and is actually powered by the water in your shower.

Ampere’s hydropower system works like a water wheel in a dam. Connect the speaker to your shower head, and the water flow powers a mini generator charging the internal battery. This provides endless music via Bluetooth with the water flowing and up to 14 hours of use without.

Ampere’s shower speaker has 40mm drivers for a max sound output of 85 decibels. That’s plenty loud enough to hear over running water. Shower Power is available in your choice of black or white, along with versions that have LED lighting so you can get the full karaoke experience going while scrubbing your nether regions.

Premium audio steps into the shower with this compact Bose speaker. The American brand is renowned for its high quality audio, and the Bose SoundLink Micro is ideal for outdoor adventures and streaming Spotify where things can get wet. The speaker also features a silicone rubber exterior for protection against damage, and the tear resistant strap at the back makes it easy to hang over a rail or hook.

Battery life for this Bose speaker comes in at six hours, so not as long as others. However, Bose claims that its bass output is better than the competition, along with music that’s rich and full of life. And if you’re only using the speaker in the shower, six hours is plenty of time.

SoundLink Micro is available in three bold tones, and Bose speakers come with a 90 day risk free trial which is great for anyone unsure if this speaker is right for them.

When your shower has no hooks or rails suitable for hanging a speaker, Kohler Moxie comes in useful. Combining a luxurious spray shower head and a waterproof speaker by Harman Kardon, the Moxie brings the best of both worlds.
