A compact speaker that's easy to place, the MusicCast-equipped Yamaha WX010 is also flexible enough to suit any wireless system.
MusicCast for music all around your home
The Yamaha WX010 is part of Yamaha's hugely impressive network audio system, MusicCast. With MusicCast you can control all your compatible Yamaha MusicCast products via your smartphone or tablet. Play the same music on all the components or split the sound into different zones for different moods in each room; the choice is yours. The MusicCast CONTROLLER app also lets you operate the speaker and change settings quickly and easily.
Advanced networking including Apple AirPlay and Bluetooth
Built-in Apple AirPlay means that you can stream music from your Apple iPod Touch, iPhone, iPad or other compatible Apple device, wirelessly. If you use another brand of smartphone or tablet then you've also got Bluetooth, for easy music streaming from your portable device.
Wi-Fi and DLNA for effortless streaming
Also standard with the WX010 is Wi-Fi, giving easy connection to your home network. A DLNA certified connection makes streaming a breeze. You can access your stored music from PC, laptop or NAS drive and listen to Internet radio stations and music services such as Spotify, Napster and Qobuz.
Bluetooth output for connecting up headphones
As an added bonus, the Yamaha WX-010 features a Bluetooth output. This lets you wirelessly stream music to compatible Bluetooth headphones or even another Bluetooth speaker - perhaps placed outside.
Twin ABRs for powerful bass
A two-way speaker system gives a crisp, clear sound, throughout the frequency range. With twin ABRs (Auxiliary Bass Radiator) either side of the unit the bass is also powerful enough to easily fill most rooms.
Pair up for stereo sound
Use the MusicCast app and you can pair up two WX-010 speakers for stereo sound. Perfect in larger rooms or wherever you prefer a more immersive, stereo sound, this function doubles the ability of this already impressive speaker.
Compact design that can be wall mounted
With its compact dimensions and unobtrusive design, the WX010 goes just where you want it. Use it on a desk, bedside table or kitchen worktop - the WX010 fits in almost anywhere. For even greater versatility, the speaker can be wall mounted via a simple keyhole slot fitting.
For big sound from a small speaker, hook up to the Yamaha WX010.

Great sound. Very good quality products
I bought a speaker for the kitchen is very good in this place. Easy to connect to spotify and internet radio. Remembers the last radio you listened to. When turned on, you can listen to your favorite radio :)

Easy to set up, great sound.
We have added this to our existing MusicCast system. Easy to set up and switch between units or link all the units together.

Superb little speaker! I'm going to buy more!
Yamaha really nailed it with this speaker. It's surprisingly heavy, but the sound is fantastic considering it's size. I will buy another so I can have them in stereo at some point, but I need to add a WXAD10 to my other amp in the sitting room first.
The internet radio stations are fantastic, what a huge selection - my brazilian gf listens to radio stations from home.
Also I use it with a file server with all 450 of my cds recorded to it in FLAC lossless format. At first I was a bit harsh on the musiccast app as it went artist > songs, not artist > album > songs. Also it couldn't show the album art. This turned out to be due to the DLNA app on the file server. However installing the free minimserver app on the fileserver fixed that and now it's as it should be.
I used to use Sonos stuff (which had the above issue fixed over 10 years ago), but honestly I think the yamaha range sounds better and it's a 1/3 of the price.
Also playing FLAC files wirelessly over our home network meant we couldn't stream video from netflix at the same time. I resolved that using ethernet over power adaptors so my music cast devices are now connected to the file server and router using these.

Great features, great sound. Easy to set up.
I have this speaker in my garage, I just tell "alexa" garage on and the speaker is happily playing anything I have chosen when I get out there.

Great for a simple music setup with 2 in stereo...
I bought these primarily to use with an LG CX55 OLED as the rear 'surround' speakers that LG advertises as being able to pair with any bluetooth speakers to provide surround sound. Well, that's not true.
LG doesn't support 'Surround' sound with any bluetooth speakers, in spite of this claim. Even LG's own wireless / bluetooth speakers won't work for that, at best they will simply reproduce the front speakers sound...however beware of the dreaded bluetooth latency issue. With these Yamaha speakers in bluetooth mode ALL audio sources from windows / android and apple were suffering1.5-3 seconds delay! I spoke to Yamaha's support department and they blamed the poor (old) bluetooth in these speakers and said that I should connect via wifi only if audiosync was required. Well that's not much use for my intended use and I wish it was made clear on the marketing material. Also, LG should hang their heads in shame at the wording on the CX48/55/65 OLED's audio capabilities.

Easy to set up, well made, impressive sound
Bought to assess if MusicCast would be a less problematic system in our home than another well known brand, and so it has proved to be. It connected to the house wifi hub with no difficulties, and internet radio was quickly controlled by all of the Android and MacOS devices in the house. Spotify Premium also worked first time with no issues. I have since set up a music server on an old PC running Windows 10; all of our devices can select song on the server and play them. Album artwork is displayed as well. Great software and we'll designed and made unit.

Bargain At The Price...
I am in the process of annoying my housemates. Thanks Yamaha! It's 1.15pm on a Saturday; if they're still in bed because of a hangover? Tough.
There's 25 watts punching well above their weight. Mid and top range are crisp and clear, the bass is a bit mushy but very, very deep for the unit size, almost sub. I'm currently streaming Old School House, some of it quite intricate like Underworld's Rez, on Spotify Premium, so haven't started to muck about with any levels yet, but I expect to be able to smarten up the bass a bit as a result. I went to full volume and it didn't distort. Can't wait to play some shooty games on Steam, CS GO is going to shatter some windows. I normally game with a headset, but what the heck, it'll be fun.
Blue tooth set up was a doddle, however there are also ports for micro USB and Ethernet (handy if streaming from a router).
4 stars because of the sloppy bass, but apart from that perfect for a mid sized bedroom.
