How to shop for Outdoor Speakers
Outdoor speakers let you up your outdoor music game from portable Bluetooth speakers to something more permanent. As you shop, ask yourself: What kind of outdoor space are you trying to fill with sound? Do you want speakers that look like speakers, or ones that blend into your landscape?
Popular questions customers ask
Outdoor speakers come in all kinds of shapes and sizes. You can get more traditional-looking speakers, plus speakers that look like rocks, or even a planter speaker that you can really plant stuff in. There are also hanging outdoor pendant speakers as well as above-ground and in-ground outdoor subwoofers.
Outdoor speakers are built to handle repeated exposure to all kinds of weather. But even if you could, you wouldn't want to submerge them in water. And you might get longer life out of surface-mount speakers if you can install them under your eaves.
That depends on the size of your outdoor space and the size of your speakers — and your amplifier power. You can fill a small yard or patio with sound using a pair of speakers with 5.25" woofers, but a larger space might need a quad of speakers with 6" or 8" woofers.
Most outdoor speakers connect to your receiver or amplifier just like indoor passive speakers with speaker wire — you'll need direct-burial-rated wire, and even then we recommend running it in conduit. We also carry some powered Bluetooth outdoor speakers that need to be plugged into AC power.
