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.

I recently restored some Klipsch outdoor speakers and was blown away with the bass, it sounded as if I had a sub hooked up.  They were installed underneath the eve's of a pitched roof.  Now I have the same low frequency response as I do indoors with a sub.

Which model please?
I have mounted over my outdoor kitchen a pair of Dayton Audio outdoor  powered by a pocket sized bluetooth/amp and they are awesome. Not my Maggie/Parasound set up but very fun outside and plenty loud.
The speakers were pretty old even so the support at Klipsch had difficulty identifying them but what they determined was the model was  similar to the CA-6T.  They must of had some variations of custom outdoor speakers back in the day.  The tweeters were fine but the woofers were cached. I found some replacements not for my model but took a chance on pictures that looked similar to my woofer and had to do some fine dremel shaving to make it fit but the results were amazing!
Elac Debut 2.0 B6.2.  Very versatile, excellent value and really nice-sounding bookshelf.  More bass than any bookshelf should be allowed to have.
