Smart Speakers

Stay Connected with a Smart Speaker

Smart speakers are one of the biggest innovations in the audio world over the last few decades. Although portable and Bluetooth speakers have technically been around since the 90s, it took until the 21st century before they really entered the mainstream. But smart speakers are more than just wireless speakers. Thanks to digital assistants like Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant, they respond to voice commands, allowing for hands-free operation.

Rather than picking up a remote to change the song, or heaven forbid, walking over to your cd player, voice controls let you do so with a few simple words. Voice assistance requires a Wi-Fi connection. But once you've connected, the possibilities are almost limitless. You can play music from your favorite streaming services, ask for the weather forecast or the day's news, and even control other smart home devices such as your lights, television, appliances. If you like the idea of voice controls but don't want to be limited to audio, consider a model with a smart display. These units allow you to pull up pictures, videos, recipes, and so much more. And whichever smart speaker catches your eye, you're sure to be amazed by its sound quality.

Abt carries a wide variety of smart speaker brands to ensure we have one that meets your specific needs. Choose from top brands like Bose, Sonos, Google, just to name a few. While you can mix and match models from various brands, staying within the same ecosystem makes it easier to turn your lone speakers into a multi-room audio system. As a result, you can tell the speakers to play your favorite tunes over a single speaker, every smart speaker in the house, or perhaps just those in the living room and kitchen.
