    I ended up purchasing 4 of the 6550s for our patio. They sound great and were easy to install.

    I purchased this speaker and quick bought it back. I didn’t feel it was made very well. It felt like cheap plastic and that it would crack in cold weather. The cabinet wasn’t very sturdy and for this having a passive radiator you would want a sturdy cabinet to help control the bass.

    Does NOT come with mounting hardware. For the price, which is for a single speaker, not a pair, it should come with mounting hardware.

      We appreciate your feedback. Regarding hardware, mounting brackets are provided; however, mounting screws are not provided as installation types vary. Different hardware is required depending on the surface the speakers will be installed on. For example, drywall, stucco, or wood surfaces require different types of screws.

    I bought 2 of the 6500 model for my terrace on September 18, 2019 and they both blew up in less than 45 days of been purchased on November the 2nd, but honestly the first time used them in like party mode. Please note that I'm using an additional Def. Tech sub-woofer (600) to help with the base, which means, that I was not abusing the speakers in any manner. I can't understand how they can cost that much and last such a few time. I don't thing they worth the money.

    These speakers have great sound that is tight and clear. One issue is the black housing paint is bad; has tiny bubbles in the paint. May return for refund.

    This speaker sounded ok while it worked. It was a little muddy in the mid- highs compared to some old Bose Acoustimass I had hooked up in parallel. However, suddenly one night while listen it started sounding like flapping cardboard. Admittedly I had the sound turned up but the receiver was only a 100 amp receiver. The speaker is rated for 200. It was only eight months old. One would think it would have lasted longer.
