\/\/illy Posted June 21, 2007 Report Share Posted June 21, 2007 Paradigm make really nice ones that sound stellar too. I did a sound comparison and they blow those "rock-looking" ones away.They're also a Canadian company. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boiler Posted June 21, 2007 Report Share Posted June 21, 2007 Who needs good sound when you have a squirel and frog playing Grateful Dead tunes to you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanada Kev Posted June 21, 2007 Report Share Posted June 21, 2007 I've just got two plastic-case bookshelf speakers that have done the trick around my pool for the last few years. I also added a massive multi-horned speaker that used to hang from the rafters at Maple Leaf Gardens for a boost every now and then. Literally, i could broadcast to the neighbourhood with it (no low end though ... bummer). I'll try to find a pic when i get home How close are your neighbours?

SevenSeasJim Posted June 21, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2007 Neighbours are about 60 feet away on each side (although my house sits back 20-30 feet more than both sides) and about 200 feet behind me through dense forest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weirdness Posted June 21, 2007 Report Share Posted June 21, 2007 I don't think that they make them anymore but if you can find them used/ebay, the Rock Solid by B&W is a great sounding outdoor speaker. Here are a couple of ebay links, fairly cheap: Ebay Rock Solid 1 Rock Solid 2 The Paradigms are a solid bet as well for sure, they just came out with a rock style speaker that looks really substantial compared to the usual ones that you see. Didn't hear them though. Klipsch could be a good bet too, I'm pretty sure they have outdoor speakers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
