Ikea upsizes its budget Bluetooth speaker with an added optical input
Ikea’s Badkruka wireless Bluetooth speaker is now available in the US for $59.99. Nearly seven inches tall and lacking a built-in battery, it isn’t pocketable but can be powered from a wall outlet. It supports Bluetooth, can wirelessly link with other Badkrukas for multi-speaker setup or stereo pairing, and includes three EQ modes and Spotify Tap. For wired use, it can connect to a TV, home theater, or PC via the included TOSLINK optical cable (optical input). Available in black or a pink/wood-textured finish.
