I have two pairs of these. These are the reasons you should consider them.
.
1) They are a high quality three way speaker in a small bookshelf. Most bookshelf speakers are only two way so you tend to lose out on sound quality. These do not have that deficiency.
.
2) They are higher end than average JBL home speakers. These are from the Studio line which is better than Northridge/Venue/Blaboa/etc.
.
3) They are far more attractive than the average speaker. Most speakers
come in some dark depressing wood, usually mortuary black or if you are lucky cherry. These speakers have a tough attractive white housing and they will blend very well with many decours.
.
4) They are bookshelf speakers, not some ugly monstrosity of a tower.
.
5) These speakers are good enough that four pairs of these and a sub would make a fine home theater.
.
6) Price - at about $240/pair you cannot get anything else in the JBL Studio line for nearly that price. They put the same drivers in much more expensive speakers.
.

We were in the market for some quality outdoor speakers and after reviewing my options we chose JBL for price and quality. We live in Phoenix and had the speakers installed on our patio near the pool over three years ago and have not had a single issue since installing them. The speakers are less expensive than Bose and really deliver a quality sound. I would buy the S36AWII again.

I just wanted to let people know that for the price, the S36AW II 3-way speakers from JBL really get the job done. I've been installing home theater and A/V solutions for quite some time now, and these speakers really sound great. IMO, You can't find a better outdoor pair for under $400.

JBL Studio S36AW II 3-Way 6-Inch Weather-Resistant Mirror-Image Horizontal/Vertical Bookshelf Speakers, Pair (Off-White)
THESE OUTDOOR SPEAKERS ROCK REALLY HARD. THEY DELIVER GREAT BASS AND OVERALL SOUND......BUT THERE IS ONE FLAW,.;THERE IS A KNOCK OUT INSIDE WHERE YOU PUT THE SCREWS IN THE BACK TO HANG THEM. IF YOUR SCREWS ARE STICKING OUT OF THE WALL TOO FAR, YOU'LL PUSH THE KNOCK OUT IN... ; IT WILL FALL INSIDE AND BUZZ AROUND IN THERE.THAT WAS MY BAD!!!I GOT IT OUT;NO DAMAGE DONE....BUT STILL ;GREAT SPEAKERS.THEY ROCK AND ROLL!!!!

bought these for a cheap home theater. Tweeters are nice and crisp. Wall mounting is simple. White color blends into the wall. Not much bass, but I have subs, so it's not a big deal. Considering the size, drivers and price, I recommend these highly.
