Recommendations for Bluetooth speaker?

I recently bought a small Bluetooth speaker to stream music and podcasts via my iPad; it's for when I'm cleaning or cooking and there's a bit of noise but I don't want to wear earbuds. Unfortunately, the speaker was not only cheap but also crap; I don't need super hifi quality, but the iPad's speakers were considerably better quality and much clearer.
Which means I'm now in the market for something a bit pricier but also better. It's less volume I need than audio quality, and a thumping bass isn't altogether required. It's more likely that I'll be listening to Aimee Mann or the latest This American Life than Prodigy or Metallica, to give you a frame of reference. If I can move it around easily (say, I have it in the kitchen most of the time but when I do something else but want to listen to some music I can put it somewhere more central), that's a definite benefit.
If I'm looking for something decent along those lines between US$100 and $200, what would you recommend? Or is there a good case for me spending a bit more?

However, it's been a solid Bluetooth player for me for almost two years now. I've taken it multi-day trekking and used it around the house. Very portable, and, at least the manufacture lot I have, has been pretty durable.
The USB cable and wall wart it comes with are a bit silly because of the garish color, but that's just my opinion.

If so, definitely check out a UE Boom, or like Grobian mentions, a UE Mini Boom.

I got a Photive CYREN and it's a good music & speakerphone if you want to get something much cheaper.
