Seems pointless and inconvenient for me as they usually seem to be poor quality, and can you really listen to music in the shower, and are you showering long enough to benefit from it?
Or do you own one and use for a different purpose, like swimming or Kayaking?
How is enjoying music “pointless”? I don’t understand your train of thought at all. Benefit from it? I just like music
lol this is the only response necessary
OP didn’t say listening to music is pointless. Try rereading the post.
Seems pointless
Literal first 2 words of the post. Have you checked your CO detectors recently?
I know grammar is hard, but OP is clearly saying that using a Bluetooth speaker in the bathroom seems pointless, not music listening in general.
Maybe at least be correct if you’re going to be a dick.
can you really listen to music in the shower
He’s saying Bluetooth speakers seem pointless because the music seems pointless.
Maybe at least be correct if you’re going to be a dick.
Music listening in general ≠ listening to music in the shower.

My wife and daughter do yeah. Blaring kpop at 7 in the morning. FML
Right there with ya, brother. 😂
I really like STAYC.
You’re a better person than me. I would have smashed that Bluetooth speaker the very first morning…. I am, not a morning person…
This is not the way. Embrace the K-pop, get really comically freakishly deep into the K-pop. Start dressing up appropriately, for a K-pop dancer, get your other dad buds to come over to practice the moves. Make it part of your core identity until they want nothing to do with it. And then you can relax
I was just going to say start blasting Baby Metal, but your plan will 100% work better
Yup, I stand corrected. This is the way.
Haha I used to. True story, my wife got me one in 2015 for my bathroom - built into the exhaust fan - I listen to the news while I shower in the morning.
Six months later, over at the neighbor’s house across the street for a block party, and someone asks “Hey, anyone know who’s blasting NPR at 4am every day?”
Turns out the exhaust fan taking the shower moisture out basically turned into a speaker cone and for months everyone on the street was waking up pissed off lol. Replaced with a regular fan and separate speaker, no more complaints.
That’s kind of amazing, actually, haha.
Pointless? Yeah, it’s a luxury.
Inconvenient? I’m not sure I understand that part. You just queue something up as you’re getting ready to shower.
Showering long enough to benefit from it? I mean, yeah? For the 10 or so minutes I’m in the shower, I hear some music and that’s nice.
I think you might be getting some really bad bluetooth speakers if they sound so bad and are so hard to operate that you find the process frustrating.
Body wash and long hair shampoo plus conditioner takes me 10 minutes, full shaving routine takes me another 10. Yes, I listen to music through a bluetooth speaker. Yes, the quality is what one would expect from an inexpensive speaker the size of a soda can.
No, I don’t blare music when people are sleeping.
I benefit from it as much as I do from listening to music at any other time? It’s entertainment.
I have several JBL speakers that are awesome. I listen to music and podcasts in the morning while I get ready. Bring it into the shower, carry it around the house, take it hiking. Can’t go wrong with a decent Bluetooth speaker.
They’re great for blasting rock while getting drunk in the sauna.
RIP while listening to ROCK in the USA
Teach us your ways
He sets up a speaker to play rock music, gets plastered, then gets in a sauna
Found the Finn.
I’ve used one for podcasts, definitely. But even for music, they may be poor quality generally but they’re significantly better than a phone speaker, and much better than a phone speaker ten feet away through glass or plastic.
I actually use my phone. The speakers on this bad boy are loud enough to hear it while taking a shower.
I like to dance a little, singing into my shampoo bottle as if I am performing a concert.
That’s just my way of pumping myself up… to go through the shitty day at the office.
Happy Monday everyone!
Yeah! Check out UE megaboom products…waterproof, sound amazing, and batteries last foe hours. 2 thumbs up!
If you like long showers, and you listen to a news program, or an audiobook. It makes a lot of sense.
Ironically my girlfriend used to use one and now doesn’t, but I’ve started to use one.
I found a cheap no name Amazon speaker on the ground in the snow and it still worked. Stuck it in the bathroom since it was obviously waterproof. Now that I’ve grown my hair longer and have to commute again, I’m in the bathroom longer and use the time to finish up the bits of podcast I don’t get to finish on my commute.
Like others have said, sound quality isn’t the best, but gets the job done. With all the other noises in the bathroom, pristine sound isn’t gonna happen from any source, let alone cranked built in phone speakers.
A lot of people don’t understand how much time long hair actually adds. When mine was reaching my hips it would add 10 minutes to my shower. I wasn’t even doing conditioner or anything; it just takes forever to get all of your hair lathered up and then rinsed out. Now that my hair is short again I’m in and out in less than five minutes, but I wouldn’t have minded music back then.
It definitely came as a shock to me. I’ve had really short hair for the last 20 years and decided to grow it out last year for funsies. It’s at my shoulders now and I didn’t notice the time creeping up as it grew, but I can see it on the clock now!
I find the main issue is that for it to be loud enough to be clear over the shower (audiobook) it has to be loud enough that I worry it’ll annoy my neighbours upstairs/my flatmate
I ran rca jacks throughout the house. These are connected to a distribution amp. Then I have cheap PC speakers plugged into that from the main receiver. This is structured wiring so they can be changed to Ethernet if necessary.
Usually I listen to the news in the morning while showering.
Another way to do it is make dongles for unused phone jacks. Just make sure they aren’t plugged into the Telco as a landline.
Only so they can’t hear me cry
