I've wanted to install outdoor speakers on the deck of my house, and after purchasing a pair elsewhere which I returned because of poor quality, I selected these, primarily based on reviews which had been submitted. Thanks everyone.

I installed these speakers yesterday and spent an evening on the deck listing to beautiful music coming from these speakers. They are excellent, sound is perfectly balanced between them, and I'm very satisfied.

They were easy to install and the packaging was very well done.

I own a restaurant and needed to get rid of my music provider and replace the sound system. They had big Bose speakers hanging in the ceiling. I replaced them with these. The Yamaha sound is ten times better then their Bose speakers. I bought them new with the free shipping. These are one of the best set of speakers for the sound. Bass is even there. I will be buying these for my rear speakers for my home theater as they will do the job. I'm glad I read the reviews and made this purchase. Can't go wrong for the price.

I use four of these in a Black box 80 seat house Theatre and they are fantastic for the job. Paired with a two channel eq and a modest power amp they consistently deliver great performance.

the sound reproduction is awesome and they disperse very broad---could be used indoors---they really deliver a broad spectrum of sound with killer bass at low levels.

Easy to install, just needed a ladder and a cordless drill/screwdriver. A Wire stripper is also reccomneded for your speaker wires. Comes with mounting bracket. I put these under the eaves of our front porch, partly protected from the elements. We've had some good storms in the last 3 weeks and these are nice and strudy. They even come with an extra safety wire, reccomended to use in case the speakers ever come loose.

Sound is fantastic. I have these hooked up to an old cheap receiver and still great. Highly reccomended I will probably order another pair for our deck out back.

These are attractive great-sounding full range speakers. I mounted them under the eaves by my deck about 20 feet apart and hooked them up to the "B" speaker connections on my 110w/channel Onkyo receiver using Pyle 12 gauge zip speaker wire. I cranked the volume up to 66 (out of 100) and my wife actually wanted me to turn them down because they were a bit too loud to carry on a conversation at the pool 50 feet away! So I turned it down to 53 and the pool party was on. :D (Side note: at this volume, I had to turn the indoor "A" speakers off because they were way too loud for the small room they are in.)

The bass response is pretty amazing considering the size of the speakers--reasonably chest-thumping with no significant distortion of the mids and highs. Mounting was a breeze--two screws (not supplied) through the mounts and they were up. I do wish the mounts allowed a bit more range of motion for more flexible positioning but it's not really a big problem given their fairly wide sound dispersion pattern. Connecting wires is a breeze with the compression connections--simply loosen the nut, slip the wire through the post hole, and hand tighten the nut. You could use bannana plugs if you wanted to but I didn't particularly need that as this installation will be relatively permanent--I'm not moving them around so I don't need quick disconnect/reconnect. (Connection tip for the do-it-yourself newbies: Split the end of the zip cord back about 2 inches, expose about 1/2 inch of copper on each wire and twist the wire strands so they go into the post holes without fraying and bunching. The wire with the stripe on one side goes in the + (red) post on both the amp and speaker)

These speakers are small enough to be unobtrusive but really produce big sound when driven by good clean amplification. Two thumbs up from here.

I return a pair of wireless speakers and bought these instead. I am very happy with the sound and the simplicty of operation (compared to wireless). I have them on my screened porch for music and NPR. Running the wires was not easy, but it was worth it.

I purchased these speakers for an outdoor theater I was setting up for the kids, they sound great! I have purchased more expensive speakers with far less sound quality than these. Definately worth the 75 bucks!

These speakers are great. We just enlarged our screened in porch and mounted the two speakers on the two corners of the porch. Mounting them was a breeze (according to my husband) and the sound is fantastic. For the price, you can't beat these speakers. We also installed an on/off/volume switch on the wall and can now listen to the house stereo and TV as low or as loud as we like.

For the price these speakers are absolutely great. I used 2 of them for a 10x25 concrete patio. Mounted each one on the inside patio corners of the house (I had to mount via vinyl siding/wood so you will need some extra mounted stuff - I just used a thin piece of wood to place behind the vinyl, so it would not buldge in, and some larger screws to anchor thru that into the wood along side the house - the speakers are not heavy). I angled the speakers facing towards the center of the patio, and they sound INCREDIBLE. We stream HD music out there and it sounds like a live concert. The 5" create outstanding bass. Thumbs up if your on a budget. Shipping was fast.
