I bought Ethan a wireless speaker to let him enjoy other people's performance (because he is learning the piano himself, see our experience in buying a piano), and did a lot of homework and comparison during the process. Here are some good wireless Bluetooth speakers, including very cheap, entry-level, and mid-range price points.

It's only 10.75 x 7 x 9″, but it sounds big, with 150 watts of peak output and stereo sound capable of filling any room.
