The HouseWaves One is a compact single-driver speaker built for clarity in the midrange and high frequencies. Its low power draw and self-muting function makes it a natural fit for desks, workbenches, or secondary rooms — and ideal for whole-home TTS announcement coverage where placing multiple speakers is the priority.

The HouseWaves One is the smallest speaker in the lineup. It fits on a desk without crowding it, under a cabinet, on a workbench, or in any secondary room where a full bookshelf speaker would be overkill.
The HouseWaves One automatically mutes when not playing, eliminating background hiss in quiet rooms — particularly useful for offices, bedrooms, and workspaces where silence matters.
Deploy one in every room — garage, laundry, hallway, bedroom — and cover your entire home with synchronized music and crystal-clear TTS announcements. Only draws 2W at idle, so it can live anywhere you have a USB-C outlet.

The integrated MAX98357 DAC and Class D amplifier delivers clean, accurate audio reproduction at 5W per channel with dual I2S channels for precise signal handling, all from a standard USB-C power source.
Ships with Squeezelite-ESP32. Also compatible with ESPHome, SendSpin, and Snapcast protocols — so your speakers remain current as the Home Assistant ecosystem evolves, without any hardware changes.
HouseWaves speakers run Squeezelite-ESP32, the open-source streaming protocol natively supported by Home Assistant's Music Assistant. No custom code required. No integrations to configure. Open Music Assistant and HouseWaves appears automatically.
