Bose is integrating Internet radio, locally stored music, and one-touch access into is new line of Wi-Fi speakers.

The new SoundTouch series uses Wi-Fi to stream music from the Internet and any networked device running Bose’s SoundTouch app. SoundTouch will be Bose’s new ecosystem for wireless multi-room music, and offer many features similar to AirPlay along with some unique convenience aspects not seen on most networked speakers.

SoundTouch works by using the Windows, OS X, iOS, or Android app as a remote control for a SoundTouch speaker or program it for later use. The app can play any music stored on the device running the app, and will be able to access Pandora and over 1,000 Internet radio stations at launch with support for more online music services planned. Like most wireless multi-room systems, SoundTouch lets users play different music on different speakers through the house, using the Wi-Fi network to control them all from a mobile device or computer.

The app features six quick slots for storing your favorite radio station, playlist, artist, album, or song. Each slot corresponds to a button on the speaker itself, and once a slot is set you can then access that content simply by pressing the button on the speaker. This allows one-touch access to online music content without using a computer or mobile device.

Bose will introduce SoundTouch with three new speakers: the SoundTouch 30, SoundTouch 20, and SoundTouch Portable. The SoundTouch 20 and 30 are single-speaker sound systems equipped with SoundTouch Wi-Fi support and Apple AirPlay compatibility. The SoundTouch Portable also uses SoundTouch, but is smaller and features a rechargable battery so it can be moved from room to room. The Soundtouch speakers will not have Bluetooth, but Bose will continue its portable Bluetooth speakers with the SoundLink II ($399.00 at Amazon)(Opens in a new window) and SoundLink Mini ($169.99 at Amazon)(Opens in a new window), both our Editors’ Choices.

The SoundTouch 30, 20, and Portable are available today at $699, $399, and $399, respectively.

Bose will expand the SoundTouch line from there, with a SoundTouch version of the Bose Wave music system planned for December with a price tag of $599. In 2014, the company will release a SoundTouch Stereo JC sound system ($1,199), SoundTouch SA-4 amplifier ($499), SoundTouch wireless adapter for owners of Lifestyle sound systems and the VideoWave HDTV (price not announced), and a Soundtouch controller for multi-room music control without a mobile device or computer ($99).
