About a year ago I had a back patio built with BBQ, etc. I needed to replace some old speakers mounted on the wall of my house. I agonized over reviews of the Klipsch AW-650, Proficient Audio AW-830, Polk Audio Atrium 8, and PSB CS-1000. Unfortunately, I couldn't listen to all of them. I ordered the Polk and PSB CS-1000. I returned the Polks. I am very satisfied with the PSB CS-1000s. Good build quality, and they're tuned very well for outdoor sound. I'd buy them again in a heartbeat. They are not as common as the Klipsch or Proficients, but they are worth a comparison.
Good Stereo Speakers for outside use during BBQs, evening pot luck dinners etc
I want to purchase (preferably used) a pair of good speakers to place in our back yard for get togethers with friends. I would like speakers that resolve well with clean highs and decent bass but nothing on the level of very high end. I will probably be running around 40 ft of speaker wire from a Pass X250.8
I'm just looking to have quality music in the back yard to enjoy with food, drink and non-audiophile friends. Easy set up and take down is desired as I really don't want to schlep my Vandersteen's in and out of the house every time I want music outside. Any suggestions for speakers and wire would be appreciated.
