Wi-Fi Versus Bluetooth
Quality and range. Wi-Fi can carry lossless audio around your whole home, though what you get depends on the app and service.
Playback. Music that streams directly to the speaker keeps playing when your phone leaves the room.
Multi-room. Every speaker in a group needs to support the same system, such as AirPlay 2 or the maker’s app.
What you give up: Wi-Fi speakers need a network, an app and usually an account, and a retired platform can strip features from working hardware. An analog or optical input is good insurance.
