I build Bluetooth speakers. Super simple. There are literally 3 parts, a Bluetooth amplifier board, speakers, power. That's it. Then you can spend time just making the box. Don't have the skills to do that? No problem, just jam it all into something else. You could put it in virtually anything else, old can of Pringles, pizza box, Muppet, you name it.
That's cool. Care to share your favorite Bluetooth amplifier board and speakers? Can you connect to multiple speakers at a time for surround sound? Each with a different channel?
I don't actually have a favorite one. I made an art deco speaker I liked so much, I kept it and it seemed to sound better than some of the others, but I couldn't ever find it again. Right now there are two chips that are commonly used. The TDA7498 and TPS3116. Even though the 3116 sounds better on paper, I prefer the TDA7498 for sound quality. Other than that just look for the features you like. I have never done the surround sound thing but it is definitely possible. You can get the parts you need at as place called partsxpress.com.
