11. BOOM Swimmer Waterproof
The Boom Swimmer waterproof shower enclosure is another treat for less than $ 100 that won’t match the absolute high end of shower enclosures, but will be so close that most won’t notice the difference.
The big selling point of the Swimmer is, of course, the flexible, detachable tail that allows you to mount this shower speaker anywhere you can find something to wrap around.
The sound quality produced by the Boom Swimmer is generally excellent, although the bass, in particular, will tend to break a bit at full volume.
All told, for the price, we’re not going to quibble. The Swimmer is a fully waterproof speaker, which means you can attach it to a pole on your sailboat. It will withstand the impact of the waves without flinching.
12. TRAKKK BANG Wireless
Trakkk is back with the Bang TR-055D wireless shower enclosure. Another is their line of quality portable audio products that you can enjoy just about anywhere.

The Bang has two compact but powerful speakers that produce bright and powerful music.
It has an IPX6 waterproof rating. Which should be more than enough unless you plan to keep it underwater for long periods regularly.
Although the overall look of this shower enclosure will not win any awards. It is a shower enclosure and not a Ferrari so we will give it a pass.
Shower Speaker FAQ:
What is the Difference Between Waterproof and Water-Resistant?
If a product is waterproof, it must have an IPX7 rating. This means that it can float in a meter of water for 30 minutes before it stops working.
Water-resistant, however, basically means that your device will only resist splashing. And will not survive submersion underwater, even for a few moments.
If you are also looking for a dustproof speaker, the degree of protection you must respect is IP67. It provides the same resistance to water but with the advantage of providing dust protection.
What is the Appropriate Power for Waterproof Enclosures?
If you want to use your speakers for a quiet, intimate picnic. Then you could get by with less than 10 watts of power.
However, to enjoy these BBQs or beach beats, we recommend that you go for a minimum of 12 watts. Make sure that when you turn up the volume. The sound is not distorted so that you can still enjoy the immersive, impressive, crisp, clean sound.
