Outdoor Speakers

Hi, I have a small place a block from the beach with a porch out front where we spend weekends in the Summer. My family spends a fair amount of time eating meals, reading, playing board games on the porch. I would like to install out door speakers so we (me) can listen to music. The porch is covered so they would not be exposed to the rain but the salt air does corrode just about everything very quickly. I think I would likely store them inside the house during the week for that reason. Are there any speakers that anyone can recommend? Thank you.

You might want to look at the Emotiva UOM-6.2 at $199/pr. (with free shipping, IIRC). They feature a 6.5" woofer, silk dome tweeter, polypropylene drivers (stand up to salt air well), a low-resonance plastic enclosure (also good against the elements), and very decent crossover components. And they come in black or white.

However, the Dayton Audio B652 speakers at only $34.80/pr. - with FREE shipping! - would seem to be an incredibly good buy...

Also, the Dayton Audio IO655B speakers would seem to be a pretty nice speaker set for only $86.65/pr.

My recommendation is to go to the PartsExpress site and key "outdoor speaker" into the search box. You'll be presented with many, many speakers to choose from...

Good luck!
