Bose Sound Touch 30 Series III

This is a bulky beast, but its patterned side panels and black cloth grille look stylish enough. An OLED display spells out track names and inputs clearly, while a panel of top controls offers quick access to six customisable presets for songs, albums or stations. Streaming options include Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Spotify, Deezer and internet radio, orchestrated by Bose’s polished multi-room app. The Series III musters a room-filling sound with hearty bass and no distortion at loud volumes, although it does over-emphasise treble a touch.
