Home theater integration has limited but real support from one review that used it successfully with a projector as an extra speaker.
Pros: Float capability, Water resistance rating
Cons: Speakerphone quality, Power bank function
Some reviewers mention Bose SimpleSync or linking with Bose soundbars or smart speakers for shared audio, extending use beyond pure portable listening.
Pros: Water resistance rating, Dust resistance rating
Cons: Wi-Fi streaming reliability, Wired input availability
It can work as a small-room TV speaker, especially via AUX or as a stereo pair, but it lacks the connectivity and low-latency polish of purpose-built TV audio gear.
Pros: Stereo imaging accuracy, Setup simplicity
Cons: Water resistance rating, EQ customization

Pros: Water resistance rating, Dust resistance rating
Cons: Speakerphone quality, Smart features
Not designed for true bonded home-theater rear-channel use; grouping audio can work, but surround integration remains limited.
Pros: Dynamic headroom, Battery life (if portable)
Cons: Speakerphone quality, Chromecast compatibility
