Incredible sound
Tim from Linn Creek, MO on 4/23/2025
Added these speakers to an existing 5 speaker system to fill in sound on a large dock . And boy, did they ever fill in! Sound quality is superb. I was a little surprised at the smallish size, but the speakers really deliver. (I can only imagine what the Atrium 6 & 8 sound like) Set up was a breeze. My telephone advisor was awesome, as always. Bottom line: the Polk Atrium series have an outstanding reputation for a reason. Very satisfied.
Pros: Sound quality Ease of connection Value
Cons: None

Great value, great sound
Sean from North Tonawanda, NY on 3/27/2025
These speakers were purchased for a small, commercial patio space, where dialog clarity and volume are important. These things sound great, and while they lack deep bass, they do produce a pretty balanced audio signature suitable for outdoor music playback, and for Cable TV listening. Installing the speakers was a breeze, and the tool-less speaker clips will make these easy to remove during the winter season. I recommend using these with Banana Plugs to protect the copper, and to make removing the speaker easier.
Pros: Loud and clear audio. Fill up the space it is placed in.
Cons: Bass is a little lacking in the lower frequencies, but not absent either. Of course, placement highly matters for this. My situation doesn't have any corners or eaves to place the speakers under, so this will suffer.

I am very impressed with the quality of the product. The sound is amazing. I do need to be fully transparent and explain that my first delivery was damaged at the manufacturer and shipped anyway. However, when I contacted Crutchfield they were very responsive and shipped my replacement product immediately. I am very pleased with their customer service as well.

Back Porch Bliss
Casey from Temple, TX on 3/2/2025
I bought a pair of Atrium4 speakers for the back porch and was pleased with the results. I opted for the scratch and dent deal and only saw minor scratches on the mounting hardware from a normal trial mounting, so it was a great deal! These speakers sound great playing big band jazz, country, folk, and easy listening tunes that I like to listen to on the back porch smoking cigars. They don't handle heavy metal and other music that sound better emanating from big speakers at a louder volume (I had to try it of course \lml), but I fortunately have inside speakers for that. And, Crutchfield packing was phenomenal as ever!
Pros: Outdoors rating, pleasant sound, and easy mounting with flexible mounting position.
Cons:

Crutchfield & Polk, a perfect pair
Kevin from Green Bay, WI on 7/23/2023
The Polk Audio Atrium 4 replaced an older pair of JBL's that I should have replaced years ago, We entertain family and friends nearly every Wisconsin weekend and I have, (without saying anything about the upgrade) received compliments and a "want to know where I purchased them". At this price-point they are a welcome addition to our our outdoor entertaining. Definitely will recommend them and Crutchfield.
Pros: Excellent price point Ease of mounting & directional placement Fast shipping Crutchfield reputation
Cons: None, these are perfect for our needs

Great campground speakers
Dan from SAINT LOUIS, MO on 6/1/2023
This is a great outdoor speaker with a surprising amount of base in my opinion. My only negative comment is that they will not accept banana plugs in any form best i can tell the terminals are not at enough of an angle to clear the speaker housing. I have them outside at my camper under an awning and they sound wonderful.
Pros: full rich sound
Cons: won't accept banana plugs

Excellent speakers at a fantastic price
Mike from Wesley Chapel, FL on 5/1/2023
The Polk Audio Atrium4 outdoor speakers are a top-notch product that delivers excellent sound quality for outdoor entertainment. These speakers are built with a sturdy and durable design that withstands harsh weather conditions, and they're also lightweight enough to move around easily. One of the most impressive features of the Atrium4 is the superior sound quality. The speakers produce rich and clear audio, with a well-rounded bass that enhances the listening experience. Whether you're listening to music, watching a movie or catching up on your favorite podcast, the Atrium4 delivers exceptional sound quality that is sure to impress. Another notable feature of these speakers is the excellent mount that comes with them. It's sturdy and well-designed, making installation a breeze. The paintable housing is another bonus, as it allows you to customize the look of the speakers to blend in perfectly with your outdoor decor. Despite all these great features, the only drawback to the Atrium4 is that it doesn't come with screws needed to mount them. You will need to purchase #10 screws and anchors separately, but this is a minor inconvenience compared to the benefits you'll enjoy from these speakers. Overall, if you're looking for outdoor speakers that are well-made, sound fantastic, and are easy to install, the Polk Audio Atrium4 is an excellent choice. The fantastic price makes these a no-brainer so buy with confidence I hope you enjoy!
Pros: Sound, quality, price, mounting bracket, size
Cons: Doesn't include screws but that's more of an FYI than anything else.

Great Small Speaker
Patrick from PEABODY, MA on 9/7/2022
I installed these near my hot tub, where I had some space constraints and could only fit a small pair of speakers. These exceeded my expectations - I can hear them clearly even with the jets running on high. I have the speakers connected to a Sonos Amp.
Pros: Easy to fit. Look nice.
Cons: Base is overall okay, but good for the size.

These speakers were used to replace gigantic concert speakers in a fairly small presentation room and out back on the attached patio, big doors and windows let the elements in so we went with 6 Polk Atrium 4's for a little peace of mind! Thanks Crutchfield!!

Great speakers-Great company
Crutchfield customer from Mchenry, IL on 6/21/2021
I have been a long time fan of Crutchfield. Their customer service is second to none. I made a goof on my original order. Not noticing it was for a single speaker rather than a pair. These Polks were a close second choice. Crutchfield substituted these for my oops one. Took less than a week to rectify. I was concerned that the bass might be lacking because of their size. Nope. They sound great. I have them mounted under my deck benches. Thank you again Crutchfield.
Pros: Decent bass for a small speaker
Cons: None yet

Great Pool Speakers
Jim from Seminole, Fl on 5/5/2021
After six months of use, I think I can give an honest opinion on these speakers. I have these mounted under the eaves by the pool (Florida) and use them on a weekly basis. Any of the driving rain we've had over the past few months did not seem to faze them - they just kept going. They are connected to a Denon AVR-S960H receiver and along with the HEOS app I can control the music from the back patio. I guess I can characterize these speakers as sounding "smooth". They are very pleasant, and I play them at a medium sound level which is conducive to adult pool and hot tub use. I have many neighbors and I don't want to blast them too much, but I can turn them up to about 80% of the 90-watt system and they still sound really nice. I can recommend them and I would purchase them again.
Pros: Easy to install, smooth sounding
Cons: Non yet.

Not impressed at all!
Crutchfield customer from Tempe, AZ on 4/18/2021
Let's start with a 190 square foot covered patio. I did not want to spend a lot of money on new speakers, and this set fit what I was looking for. So, I installed these as pictured in the installation guide for better bass response up under the roof line between the trusses aimed at 120 degrees down. I had commercial grade ceiling speakers for 20 plus years, and they produced exceptionally good sound until the paper speakers gave out. I thought that technology had improve that I could put a smaller speaker and receive good sound but sadly not in this case. I went from Vivaldi, Four Seasons ( summer, first movement ) to Metallica, Fade to Black and everything in between, Country and R&B. All my music from my system goes thru a 10 band per channel equalizer and the result is week mid-range and bad bass. I decided to switch out one speaker with one in the garage (separate system then the house). The speakers in the garage are over 40 years old but sound really good. I had these in my dorm room when I was 20 and the Polk Audio speaker was overrun by the old speaker. I read the reviews and knowing that each person's ear is different I will tolerate them until I get upset with the sound and put them in my wife's yard sale. Then I will have to spend more money and get a bigger speaker which is not what I want either.

Placed 4 of these on each corner of deck that is no higher than 7ft tall. Deck is about 15x30ft give or take. Speakers sound great maybe because of size of deck isn't so high. Maybe if you have more space to blanket with sound without a deck or have tall decks, it might be wise to fetch the largest Atrium speaker size one can afford. These speakers sound good to me.

Crutchfield customer from Durham, NC on 9/8/2020
An exceptional pair of outdoor speakers. We installed these on our screened porch and are delighted with the improved sound quality as compared to the aging Jensen speakers which the Polks have replaced. Also, being able to purchase directly from a trusted source (Crutchfield) was a huge plus. Avoid the big online retailer! Buy direct whenever possible - especially when cost difference is a non-issue.
Pros: Sleak design, solid build and discernibly nuanced sound quality!

Decent sound for the price
Crutchfield customer from Mt Hood Prkdl, OR on 8/28/2020
This set of speakers has a decent sound for the price, but unfortunately mine seem to be blown or have since type of distortion on the highs. One of the tweets sounds a little distorted with certain high ranges, but otherwise, they sound great for the price point. Would have spent a little more tio get a crisp and clear sound, but I'll have to be ok with them until I can upgrade again. Bass is good for the size and price, so I'm not too disappointed. The speakers were fairly simple to install, but did not include hardware beside the bracket. It would have been nice to have done screws for the install, but that was a minor set back. In general they sound ok, and much better than the pair I replaced. The speakers have a nice look to them, and they can be painted if you would like to match your house.

Great speakers, at a great price...
Crutchfield customer from Bishop, GA on 8/25/2020
Overall very solid speakers. I was torn between the Atrium 4 or 5, and decided for aesthetics, to go with the 4's as they were going next to a pool and I didn't want them too large. I am very pleased with the clarity of the speakers thus far. I am powering them with a Yamaha amp, and will add two additional speakers shortly. The speakers obviously are not going to produce a great deal of bass, but for my usage, these are perfect. The mounting bracket allows many mounting choices and speaker positioning once installed. I have mine facing a pool, and at mid volume with a Yamaha amp, I am not getting any breakdown, and the efficiency is great even with the amp being 80-100 ft. of wire away from the speakers. At the rear of my property or 1.5 acres from the speakers, they are still very clear, which allows the music to now be overpowered by pool noise and water features.
Pros: Great mid's and high's but bass is sufficient for most music and very clear at all listening levels. Great for 70s, 80s, and 90s rock.
Cons: None at this time.

Amazing sound and great size
Crutchfield customer from South Berwick, ME on 7/25/2020
These speakers are amazing!!! Great addition to our home adding outdoor sound. I power these with Sonos Connects on Dayton 12 switch Amp. I almost think they are louder than my Atrium 6's. I have four of these speakers. Two for our Hottub and two at our fire pit. They are awesome! I would buy more and put them up if I had anymore places to put speakers. :)

Great pair of speakers, would buy them again...
Fernando from EL PASO, TX on 7/1/2020
The Atrium 4 is a great pair of outdoor speakers, the sound is full and the bass response is not bad at all. The speakers are loud and very clear. I got them in black and they not only sound great but they look great. The sound is enough to have my neighbors nagging late at night! It beats using a Bluetooth speaker... I was considering getting the atrium 6 but with the help of Crutchfield's customer support they helped me pair this with my current system. I'm using them in the Zone 2 of my Denon x1400h. I ended up using the preout of the Denon and powered the speakers with a small second power amp that has some tone controls (treble, bass). Everything works awesome! I got some covers for when we aren't using them...
Pros: Great sound, they look great, not too big, they come in pairs, great price, easy to install.
Cons: they don't have a cover to protect the speaker connections, it probably isn't a big deal.

Great speakers that need bass
Crutchfield customer from Port Orange, FL on 6/29/2020
These speakers are excellent for what they are. They produce very clear and vibrant highs and middles, however: the bass leaves something to be desired. With a connection of a subwoofer, the sound is great! I should have gone ahead and purchased the Atrium 5 because I here the bass is much improved. For a very reasonable price, you can't go wrong with these speakers.
Pros: clarity of highs and middle range small size ascetically pleasing easy hook-up reasonably priced
Cons: need more bass

Incredible value
Crutchfield customer from Hughesville, MD on 6/6/2020
Just installed so this review can't consider long term performance and durability. That said, these speakers sound great for smaller outside spaces. At this price, they represent an incredible value. I didn't expect Carnegie Hall but am delighted with their range and clarity. They seem well built , blend nicely with our house trim and well complement the Atrium 6's I installed above another deck. I went small to minimize annoying any neighbors in the direction these point, but they provide plenty of punch for my tastes across the smaller area.
Pros: Price, sound quality, construction.
Cons: Separate the speker jacks further!

Outdoor music streaming on a budget
Crutchfield customer from Charleston, SC on 9/9/2019
Sweet sound on a budget. I recently installed these speakers on my outdoor shed beneath an overhang and paired them with the Yamaha R-S202 amplifier. I keep the volume level between 55-60 while streaming tunes from my iPhone 8+ and it is plenty loud and enjoyable. I am not trying to recreate a concert, simply enjoy some music while relaxing or working in the backyard. If you are looking for an economical option for enjoying music outdoors, the Polk Atrium4's deliver.

Worthless Warranty
John from Cleveland, OH on 8/20/2019
Don't expect anything from the Polk 5 year warranty. I purchased these speakers on on July 27, 2015. In the Spring of 2019, I noticed severe distortion coming from one speaker, and placed a call for warranty support. I send them my receipt and Serial No. as requested and was told to call them back when I was by the speakers to complete the claim. I did so and had to "troubleshoot" the speaker as they tried to find another reason for the problem. I swapped locations with another speaker and the problem moved to the new location. I even held the phone to the speaker so that the technician could hear the problem. I was then told to take the speaker apart for further diagnosis. They said that they did not warrant speakers, only parts. I had to disassemble, diagnose, return the part and reassemble with a replacement once received. After repeated attempts and repeated calls, three of us could not get the weather sealed speaker open. Finally, they agreed to take care it "even though it is out of warranty," 4 years in to the 5 year warranty. I paid $14 to mail the speaker back. And not a new, but the same "repaired" speaker came back weeks later. It worked all of 5 min. before dying entirely, verified again at multiple locations. Also, a second speaker has now died. I have been trying for two weeks, between 10:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. to contact Polk support, and repeatedly get the message to call back within (those same) business hours.
Pros:
Cons: Imagine your washing machine is under warranty, and you're told to disassemble it, determine which part is broken, remove it, send it in, wait for a replacement, and then reassemble it.

Great thing is easy to take down as shop outside being re done in fall when weather cools off . Speakers have played great Piano solos Live Dead from 78, new wave and Classical Beethoven. good base and highs . If your into Rap may need more Thump, But I grew up on 70's rock with 300 live major shows working security for many . Used 14-GA from Crutchfield will be run in PVC this fall . #4 shows receiver in Progresses with a Laptop fan going under her. I owned a Hobby store 10 years Heat is biggest enemy to any electric item wood shop found out as well any surge protector you use make sure is 15 amp not the wimpy 2-6 amp ones will not allow enough power and will burn up products as well as too much PS my neighbor not happy he slams Rap on cheap Wally world all in one boom box
Pros: easy install fast shipping if needed . brackets designed for different set ups horizontal vertical or 45 degree , wit a quick release can store inside during off seasons or Hurricanes in TX

Great for the price
Crutchfield customer from Georgetown, DE on 8/9/2018
I'm very pleased with these speakers, which I'm using for surrounds in an outdoor 9 channel theatre set-up. Installation was excellent... easy and very secure. Sound is well beyond what I expected for their price tag. I'd absolutely purchase again. As always shipping/packaging with Crutchfield was exceptional. Used my reward bucks to attain these. Thanks Crutchfield!!
Pros: -Set up -Sound for price -Attractive
Cons: Bass response... but not bad given woofer size and price

Great sound compact size
Steven from Garner, NC on 7/22/2018
Needed replacement speakers for our deck. These fit the bill perfectly. For their compact size they have an amazing sound. Easy to install and since I alreadt had the wires run easy to hook up. Now we can enjoy music or garden shows in our back yard, Hopefully they will last for years to come.
Pros: Easy to install
Cons: None that I can think of yet

Crutchfield customer from Nesconset, NY on 7/5/2018
I have a pair of the Bose 151 speakers and decided to try these as I didn't want to spend the $ for another pair of Bose. I couldn't be happier with these speakers! The sound is amazing at all ranges. They look great and the way that they attach to the bracket is just too easy. My only con would be that the terminals are too close together so hooking up the speaker wire can be a little tricky if you have normal sized fingers(most speakers have this setup). Don't waste the money for the Bose speakers....you'll be happy you didn't...

Nate from Mount Arlington, NJ on 5/23/2018
Pros - Arrived quickly and in perfect condition - Sound great (highs and mids really crisp, lows are good considering the size) - Size and shape perfect for where we wanted to mount them under the eaves - Mounting brackets and design make for easy install and adjustment - Great value for the money Cons - None so far Just installed them a few days ago paired with a 120W Pyle amp. Time will tell on durability but they look like they are built to last.

Jeff from Niles, IL on 7/13/2017
These speakers sound great out in my garage. I mounted them up high on the rafter beams, aimed them on a slight downward angle, and I swear I haven't heard music sound this good in my garage ever. I was going to mount these outside on my patio wall , but after I heard them in my garage , I didn't want to give them up to the patio. I guess I may just need to buy a 2nd pair!
Pros: Tight sound, ease of mounting, numerous aiming positions

Pete from Peoria, IL on 6/19/2017
Small and nondescript. The sound is about what I'd expect for a speaker of this size at this price point. It lacks definition in the mid-range, and there is a distinctive mid-bass peak, but the overall bass is better than you might expect for something this small. Presence and dispersion is excellent. Installed on our front porch.
Pros: Small, nondescript.
Cons: Sound quality is mediocre.

I was surprised by the sound that the Atrium 4 produces. I have owned a surround theatre system by Polk since 2003 and have always been impressed by it but when I hooked up the Atrium 4 speakers outside I had to ask myself if the music was coming from my surround theatre set up or the new Atriums. Great job Polk !

Sounds great in a 4-speaker Marine set-up driven with a Rockgate Amp. Compact enough to place in side rails beside seats, Bass is adequate and what physics dictates for a speaker 9 in tall and 7 in deep - it won't sound like a full size but way good for a compact.

Good Value for the money
Phil H. from Palm Coast, Florida on 4/14/2015
Replacing a pair of no name brand from another retailer (mistake!) for the out side pool area that lasted two years. The brackets and speaker case are affected mostly due to the weather here in Central Florida, beating sun rays, rain, and pool chemicals. Had them for three months and the brackets have held up, no rust. The speaker case is like new and the speaker delivers clear crisp sounds. Could use more bass, but for the $, it does the job.
Pros: Price, brand name, eye appeal, sound and construction
Cons: Lack of bass

Some people call me "old school" because I have preferences developed in the 80's.I was actually trying to find some David 5000s and the Polks were a second choice. I'm using then as aux rears in a van. I expect they will do great when they get set up with their own amp.

Polk Atrium 4's
Jeff from Harbor Springs, MI on 7/11/2014
Sound great and easy to install. I have them installed outside on the patio, installation was easy, however the 5 way binding posts do not support a standard banana plug. The angle of the posts blocks access for a standard banana plug from the back of the posts. I had to insert the banana plugs into the binding post screw opening and then snugged them down. The connection seems to work fine and they continue to sound great.
Pros: Value/Price. Easy to install. Sound and look great.
Cons: Standard banana plugs do not fit due to the angle of the posts.

Incredible Value
Tim from Highlands Ranch, CO on 4/18/2014
I installed these speakers on my side patio and my back patio 2 years ago. I've been very pleased with the quality of sound on these speakers. Sound is crisp and bass is good. While I rarely write reviews, I felt inspired to do so as I'm writing this on my side patio with Kings of Leon playing through Pandora on my iPad streaming through Airport Express to my older Onkyo receiver. I'm really pleased with these speakers and planning to install another pair in my basement for working out. What I like is the quality at low and high volume. Thank you Crutchfield for helping me figure out the install.
Pros: Quality of sound - Small enough (some speakers are really large) - Still working after 2 full seasons of Colorado's winter and summer extremes.
Cons: None - I'm really pleased with these speakers.

joe from Golden, CO on 3/21/2014
Based on the majority of reviews, I though these would have much better sound quality. They have virtually no bass. Turning up the bass on the receiver only caused distortion.

Great Complement to Summer
S from East Stroudsburg, PA on 7/8/2013
For the size and price these Atrium 4's sound fantastic. We ran some 16 gauge wire out to the back deck and mounted these in both corners so we could have them face the house or swivel out to the the patio. The sound is great with no distortion up to rather high volumes. Wire hook up is easy with the 5-way posts and installation is also easy with only two wood screws needed for each speaker bracket. Easy to pop into the brackets once mounted but more difficult to pop out. Solution, just slide the bracket and speaker up and out of the screw mounts and take the whole thing inside when needed. Very convenient. These also appear to be very versatile with multiple mounting options/angles. Great value, great sound.
Pros: Great sound with no distortion up to rather high volumes, handsome, easy to pop in.
Cons: Not so easy to pop out.

AJ from Lawrence, KS on 6/21/2013
I use them for a patio, and delivers the right sound for a patio. I use the Atrium 7 for a larger & open pool area and main outdoor speakers.. These speakers will do great for a smaller area. Otherwise, step-up to the Atrium 7. Different sound category, different price category as well.... Different size as well. Atrium 7 are really bigger. If you hesitate, go for the Atrium 7, you won't be disappointed.
Pros: Quality built Great sound for a small/medium size area Smaller size make them easy to use in smaller outdoor spaces
Cons: Not as deep as Atrium 7, but should not be a surprise....

Excellent overall sound. This Atrium set was included as part of a promotion with Polk and Crutchfield and were not an intentional purchase other than I did have a use for them. I decided to hook them up in a spare room (inside not outside) to an older Sony receiver. Even if they weren't included in the deal with my other purchase, I would have absolutely purchased these. The sound is full and rich and plenty of volume. Great product for a great price. Highly suggest for the price for indoor or outdoor use!
Pros: great sound
Cons: none found

GregS from Hendersonville,NC on 6/17/2013
Got these free by ordering 7 other Polk speakers. Haven't installed them yet, but if they sound anything like the others I'm in for a great time listening outdoors...and the price was right!

Outstanding
Received these in a deal that they throw them in when you purchase x amount of polk speakers. Put them up on my back patio under the eaves and wow. Usually you do not get real good bass from outdoor speakers and these really rock. I was amazed in the sound they create.

Great little speakers
X from Arlington, VA. on 5/30/2013
Crutchfield and Polk always seem to have some sort great speaker deal going. Since I bought over a certain dollar amount of Polk speakers, they threw in the Atrium 4's for free. Fantastic. I was putting speakers on the deck anyway, so why not mount them by the grill to supplement the sound? It works great. I was not expecting much from these little speakers but I am super impressed. I get plenty of volume and crisp, clear audio. I was expecting the bass to be really anemic but it's pretty good for speakers of this size. The build quality is top notch and mounting them couldn't have been easier. Polk's Atrium series is a winner. Taking advantage of the Crutchfield/Polk offers is a no brainer.
Pros: Great sound for such a small speaker. Very easy mounting.Good price point.
Cons: None so far.

Great sounding speakers
Kylek from Chicago on 5/15/2013
The speakers sound great even in a larger open space. The brackets allow you to mount them at the best angle for your setup, and can be mounted either vertically or horizontally with ease. The wire terminals make it so they make good contact for clear sound. Overall a great set of speakers for everyday use.

POLK AUDIO ATRIUM 4
GaryD from Inverness, FL on 5/10/2013
I mounted the Polk Atrium 4 speakers on our lanai. They look and sound great. They were easy to mount and are more than adequate for that space. I may purchase two more for the garage.
Pros: Ease of mounting and sound quality
Cons: I don;t have any at this time.

So far, disappointed
JohnB from St. Louis, MO on 4/28/2013
Not enough bass to sound good in a small backyard. I cranked up the bass on the receiver, but got lots of nasty distortion when I gave them only a modest amount of volume. Should have spent the money to get something decent. Will see if the sound improves after they've acclimated to outside conditions but I'm not optimistic. Probably stuck with them as installation marred the white finish. Ugh.
Pros: Compact design. Easy to install and great flexibility in how to direct sound. Look nice. Inexpensive.
Cons: Not worth even the modest price if they can't handle bass.

Outdoor Pleasure
Dan C. from Towmencin Twp, PA on 6/12/2012
Clean, clear sound quality. Fills your outdoor space with music that no boom box can match. These white waterproof speakers looks great and perform well. You find yourself spending more time outside. No regrets
Pros: Compact, easily adjustable, good clarity. Quality from Polk you would expect
Cons: Non yet.

GeorgeE from Dublin, GA on 9/27/2011
My recent purchase of Polk outdoor speakers was a replacement for older Polk speakers I have had for over 10 years. I have to say the the quality that Polk builds into their products translates into great sound and longevity. My new speakers provide excellent sound reproduction in my outdoor pool/patio area. I would recommend Polk products to everyone!!

Very Good Outdoor Speaker
TC from Shorewood, IL on 8/23/2011
I installed these speakers on an outside wall, just beneath the eaves. Due to their size, I was able to install them exactly where I wanted. The supplied bracket with swivel allowed me to rotate them where I needed the sound to go. Very good sound for their size and price. I would give 5 stars if they had a little more bass, but they did quite well for a 4" woofer.

Small but great sound
Chris from Albany NY on 8/22/2011
Speakers are small but provide a nice sound. Surprised at the base that's output...I wasn't expecting a lot and they came out sounding nice. Fairly light weight so hanging them wasn't an issue with just some regular exterior screws.

Worth the Money
BobF from Houston, TX on 8/22/2011
I put these speakers in the garage so when I did my wood working I had something to listen to. The set up was easy and after I dialed in the sound the speakers were very nice. They have good highs and lows. For the price they are an excellent buy!

KevinM from Bowling Green, KY on 5/28/2011
I bought these to replace some old JBLs in my 15' x 15' enclosed patio. Excellent mounting hardware to find the perfect angles that I needed. Decent bass (which I can adjust easily on my receiver) and excellent mids and highs. I would recommend them. I was also very pleased with Crutchfield's product info and really fast delivery.

Kevin from Ruston, LA on 5/2/2011
I really like these speakers! They look good, and are not too big. I use them outdoors, and am really impressed with the sound! They have great bass for their size! The closer you put them to your eves, the more bass you will hear. I was also impressed with how well they "spread" the sound. I also like the fact that they are so weather proof. For the money, you can not beat them! Highly recommended!

Great Outdoor Speakers
Russ from Plymouth, MI on 5/2/2011
These speakers do not handle as low of frequencies as I would want for indoor speakers, but the mids to highs are wonderful. The light amount of bass is perfect for my small backyard so that I do not disturb my neighbors. Also, the mounting brackets allowed for me to easily mount these speakers under my eaves and point them down towards the center of the patio. As always, Crutchfield delivered the speakers quickly and provided an extensive amount of additional support.
