Great addition to the backyard!
I have Klipsch AW-650's mounted on the house near the back deck and they sound great. I wanted speakers in the yard so you could hear music out there too without having to blast the deck speakers. After reading many reviews I decided on the RS6 Pro Rock Speakers from Niles. I have a Denon 4311ci powering both the Klipsch speakers (via zone 2) and the Niles RS6 Pro rock speakers (via zone 3). Each pair is hooked up to its own volume knob for independent level control. The Denon easily powers them to "party" levels although I was also impressed when breaking them in/testing them in the basement using a mid-range Onkyo receiver and also with an Emotiva Flex Fusion amp.
I am very pleased with how these speakers sound although I'd give the slight edge to the Klipsch's if I had to pick between the two. The speakers are very well built and well-packed for shipping. They seemed to improve after a slight break-in period as well. The 2-way design of the rock speakers features a tweeter that is angled up so they sound great even while sitting on the ground and they also provide a wide coverage area. Overall, very pleased and I'd get 2 more if I had a bigger yard!

Great sound; blend into landscape nicely
I bought a pair of these for backyard patio/pool area. Paired them as well as another pair of house-mounted speakers on back deck to a Yamaha amp that was in turn paired to Sonos:Connect, so I could use with my existing Sonos system (Sonos does not make outdoor speakers). Sound is great, with good base-treble range, despite long speaker wire runs (150') and they blend in so well that several guests didn't realize where my speakers were until I pointed them out.
