Free or premium membership doesn’t make a difference for Spotify connecting it to Alexa has the same steps. Of course, you’ll also need an Amazon account with Alexa, and the Echo registered and a Spotify account. The setup is easy, requiring only your smartphone and two apps.

The main function of bookshelf speakers has always been to make pleasant background noise while looking good out in the open, and the MS50A definitely pulls that off.Alexa and the Amazon Echo make for a pretty potent combo in the house. Once it's set up, it's easy to use with or without Alexa, and the sound blends seamlessly into the background while I'm busy writing. Just glancing at our picks of the best smart speakers on the market, you could spend more to get the Denon Home 150, the Sonos One, or the Bose Portable smart speaker, but you could apply the same logic to any of those too. While the MS50A sounds pretty good, some pricier options sound great or even fantastic. If you want to avoid the tangle that comes with all those wires, though, the Bluetooth and Wi-Fi of the MS50A will give you a cleaner setup. If your Echo supports it, you could give the Audioengine A1-MRs Alexa support that way, but you could also opt for powered speakers without Wi-Fi support if you were only in it for better audio from your Echo. Plenty of Echo devices also come equipped with a 3.5mm stereo output.
