The range of AW all-weather outdoor speaker utilizes specially designed components that ensure extended durability without compromising on hi-res audio. The AW5500 outdoor speaker equipped with Definitive Technology's Balanced Double Surround System (BDSS) driver pressure-coupled to racetrack Planar Low Bass Radiator, provides a wide-bandwidth accurate frequency response, broad dispersion, low distortion, and detail retrieval for clear, high-definition reproduction of vocals and instruments. Each speaker features a fully sealed (air- and water-tight) design, aluminum grilles, and rugged PolyStone enclosure that allows it to be fully exposed to the elements and still reliably deliver their indoor speaker sound quality for years of outdoor listening enjoyment. The included galvanized steel mounting brackets give 360-degree placement flexibility, and they can also be removed for ease of positioning on a shelf or table in an outdoor area.

When we purchased our house, the speakers we had on our deck were fine. When the subwoofer blew, I was angry that I had to replace them. But after replacing them with these Def Tech Outdoor speakers, I wish I would have replaced them sooner! These speakers are unreal. Great sound quality throughout the upper ranges, and great bass. I have a feeling my neighbors will be complaining if we ever have an outdoor get-together! I would put them anywhere I needed audio outdoors!
What's great about it: Unbelievable sound quality, easy set up, great looking
