    I live in Texas, and purchased / installed the speakers in the heat of summer. They handle the Texas heat and humidity of the coast well. No issues. Great investment.

    Because of the fancy diaphragm B&W designed, they have managed to produce a lot of low end out of a weatherproof/sealed monitor. these almost sound ported, but less than a fully ported box, maybe more like a passive monitor on the backside. Overall great sound, especially if you like exaggerated lows.

    These B&W indoor/outdoor speakers provide clean and clear music at any volume. Bought them for a sunroom where we socialize. You don't have to turn them up to get good sound, however, when you do turn them up they are amazing as well!

    These outdoor speakers were so easy to install and the SOUND is crisp and there is no distortion when the volume goes up. Great sound and clarity through the back yard. The invisible wire mounts are great. I also purchased a received that my Magnolia Sales person recommended which is everything he said it was and more. I love my back yard sounds.

    These replaced our current outdoor speakers. I was so surprised on the huge sound difference. Mounted 2 sets to the back upper level decks of our house and sound really great in our large back yard.

    We replaced twenty-year-old speakers with these. They are very solid and well-made. The sound is incredible. Honestly, we don't have to turn them up very loud for amazing sound that fills our outdoor deck and surrounding yard. Highly recommend. Installation couldn't be easier.

    Very well made. Really like how they hook up to bracket/speaker wire. Sound is very good. Not great…However, I haven’t had much experience with outdoor speakers. So these very well could sound great when compared to others. Curious how well they hold up outside, but with their build quality they should be fine.
