When you buy a Bose speaker, you know two things: (1) The sound will be sharp and full, and (2) you’re going to spend some money. Well, today you can spend a little bit less, since the Bose Home Speaker 300 is marked down to $199. You can stream music to it from your phone via Bluetooth or use the built-in Wi-Fi to access Spotify. Plus, the speaker works with Google Assistant or Amazon’s Alexa, in case you have a preference on which company might be constantly eavesdropping on your life. With six microphones, the 300 is sure to pick up your voice commands, no matter how loud your music is already playing. And if you already own other speakers in the Bose Home line, the 300 will link to them for multiroom play of the same music. At six-by-four inches, it’s about the same size as the Amazon Echo, so it can be easily tucked into the corner of a bookcase — or maybe stashed in your closet, still in the box, just waiting to be given as a gift when the holidays get here.
