Smart Speakers

Smart Speakers are the latest way to get the most from your Bluetooth audio set-up. With new enhancements such as multi-room connectivity and Alexa integration, you can now verbally ask for songs to be played and change the atmosphere of your entire home in moments. Astounding for places of business and homes that host lots of parties!

Smart Speakers are the logical next step when it comes to affordable audio innovation. The power to transmit your Bluetooth signals across multiple speakers throughout the home will be in your hands and some models have Alexa integration too. Therefore at the touch of a button you can request songs from the worlds largest library of digital music or even ask a particular internet radio station be played. If you, like many others, have any burning questions or you simply need a recipe or a timer to be set, all problems are solved with our new range of Smart Speakers from TIBO.

What does a Smart Speaker do?

The advancements of Smart Speaker technology can be boiled down to the introduction of tactile app connectivity via a smart device such as a mobile phone or tablet. ‘Grouping’ as it’s known in this instance allows multiple smart speakers to connect to the same source of audio, giving you an expanded multiroom speaker system as a result! Not only this but smart speakers all across the market are making use of voice assistant technology such as Alexa but often times it seems you’re expected to pay through the nose for this addition. We visualise a set up of smart speakers being as integral to the modern home as Wi-Fi itself and you can get far more for your money by shopping for a better bargain.

Are Smart Speakers safe?

Smart Speakers in their nature are not eavesdropping on your conversations and other similar theories you may have read about. What is the case in your typical Smart Speaker however is that is it always awaiting words to kick the voice assistant into action at which point it will listen to you fully. Technically they are ‘hearing’ you and picking out the odd word, but not physically listening per se, you may have been discussing something during the day and an advert to do with your conversation pops up on your social feed, while awaiting the wake-up word it could have ‘heard’ your wanting of a new speaker, hoping to fulfil it. Either way, the compatible TIBO Speakers we stock need a button held down to even activate the Alexa function, so ours are more than safe to use freely without worry of them ‘hearing’ you until its time to do so.
