Review on Professional JBL Control 85M 5.25-Inch Coaxial Mushroom Landscape Speaker for Effective Outdoor Audio by Candace Carpenter

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good solution best in speakers

I've tried many outdoor speakers of this type (omnidirectional, buried in the ground). The best for the price is the Tic GS3. My problem is; I have blown 3 GS3, OSD850 and Bose in the last 4 years. I'm trying to control myself, but sometimes the volume gets louder (like when I said "Alexa: Metallica, volume 10"). I have both 5.25 and 8. As mentioned, the maximums are lower than desired. Hence the 4 star rating. But the power management? Terrific. Don't get me wrong, they still sound good and I would recommend them.

Pros
  • Rugged polyethylene housing, weather resistant
Cons
  • Upgrades
