Now Samsung is hoping it can change that up. The South Korea-based company announced the Samsung Shape M7 wireless speaker system that wants to take over your house with a multi-speaker setup.
The M7 speaker was announced in the US, competitively priced with the Sonos at $399 (£308) in either a white or black finish. It can be positioned both vertically and horizontally, looking like a wheel of cheese either way. The M7 supports Bluetooth, NFC, and Wi-Fi. If you're only using one speaker you can connect over Wi-Fi to stream music.
If you're using two speakers or more, things get a bit more complicated. Samsung will require you to purchase the $50 (£31) Samsung Hub and connect it to a router via Ethernet. An app will be made available from the iTunes App Store and Google Play to control multiple speakers and audio sources from your smartphone. Samsung supports your own music library, Amazon, Pandora, Rhapsody, TuneIn Radio, and others, but there is no mention of Spotify or Rdio.
