    Been waiting on a price drop for this speaker for a while now:

    Anker Premium Stereo Bluetooth 4.0 Speaker (A3143) - 40% Off @ £23.99 Delivered

    http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0109TWZ54

    A3143011_TD01.jpg
    I guarantee you, you will not find a better Bluetooth speaker at this price.

    Even at it's original price of £40 it was a bargain.

    Why?

    It has a better sound than the Bose Sound Link Mini 1 / 2, which costs over 4 times the price,now 7 times the price! Link

    If you don't believe me check out clavinetjunkie's review and comparison on YouTube:

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vezRUV3pHx8


    He is THE go to man for premium Bluetooth speaker reviews.

    He uses 2 binaural microphones attached to his ears for recording all his videos, so use headphones when listening instead of speakers, and you'll get a more realistic impression of how it sounds.

    Heres a link to todays deals on the rest of Anker's range:

    I think you would benefit more from a soundbar tbh.

    This is designed to be portable and has a battery inside.

    I wouldn't fancy leaving it charging all the time you want to play TV through it.

    Jeez that code didn't last long, was working a few hours ago.

    That battery bank is 40% off anyway so its still a great deal.

    It would just be used for occasional movie watching and just to make the sound from the TV better so would not be on the whole time.

    I'd still recommend a sound bar over it, this might not be powerful enough to fill the room at the volume you want. A sound bar would be 3-4 times the length and would have much better stereo depth and volume.
    I'm a tad fussy when it comes to audio though
    There was a soundbar in Lidl for €50 a few weeks back, you could try getting one for that price.

    Anker make really good battery packs, I'd have no problem using this as intended and charge when required.

    Clavinetjunkie hasn't reviewed that model yet.

    Since it runs on 4 AA Batteries and has upto 24 hour battery life, I doubt its as powerful or as good sounding as the Anker.

    The website gives no specs on the output / wattage. The anker has subwoofers which the D100 lacks:

    Impressive battery life compared to the Anker though.

    On this last bit, Aldi have a €50 soundbar from this Thursday as well it that's of interest to anyone.
