Nice Speakers Deep Bass

Holding up well, about six months now. There's no bass, but at least we have sound in the backyard. They were bigger than I thought.

Pros
  • 5¼" highly weatherproof driver, ¾" highly weatherproof soft dome tweeter
Cons
  • Anything I can add

Nice addition to my pool sound.

I love the sound. I added surround sound to my patio. The sound is clear. Not much bass but I didn't get it for bass as I have a 12 inch bass woofer. All in all a great product.

Pros
  • Fully insulated center chamber to protect wiring
Cons
  • Slightly torn

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…

Pros
  • Rugged polyethylene housing, weather resistant
Cons
  • Upgrades
