Is there such a product that can give a decent sound? Not looking to have a dance in the bathroom but would like a decent level of sound (and Bass) rather than something very flat? Ideally speakers that can be roof mounted and then connected to a phone when going in to the bathroom?

I've just fitted these in my bedroom - to fill in holes left by 102mm dia downlights which I cannot stand. On their own the sound was quite tinny, but once they were in the ceiling there's a good amount of bass out of them too. They also seem very powerful as I have to have the phone out put volume down at around 5-10% rather than 70% with streaming in the car though there may be an amp setting I've missed. Anyway, they're very good for their price:

The Lithe Audio speakers are great, they sound really good and have a decent level of bass.

Give me a shout if you want to buy one and I'll look after you smile

Not suitable for going directly in a shower cubicle though, fine for bathrooms.

Yep, link is on my profile page.

Regardless of where it's bought from though, the Lithe is a really great speaker. Works well, sounds great and is very reliable.

I'm looking for something similar for a garden building which we're going to use as a gym. It will need to be Bluetooth & Alexa compatible and also need an input for a tv, would you still recommend the lithe?

I would suggest getting a small amp, like the Yamaha one or a sonos Amp and wiring to two speakers that are IP44 or higher rated. That way you have the inputs and the streaming connectivity that you would want, you can also expand the system then.

Plus if the speakers do get damaged by steam or water then the outlay to replace them is much lower.

The downside is a slightly more technical installation, however loft spaces can solve the problem instantly.
