Im thinking about getting
Klipsch AW-650's for outdoor use, but wanted to see if anyone has thoughts on other options. They are 400 on amazon new, 330 used. Looking for something less than that. Open to (like-new) used gear.
Now I'm looking at these
OSD AP650, which are much cheaper at 160 new. On paper, the specs are better. 150W vs 85W on the Klipsch (unless this is a Peak vs RMS spec? Which i couldn't find for the OSD). And the OSD claims to go down to 37HZ vs the Klipsch 70. The OSD are twice the weight, which is sorta annoying, but not a deal breaker. Is the Klipsch price just in the brand name? How are OSD products? I've never owned any.
There seems to be some reliability/build complaints in the comments on the OSD. But also I am not putting these in direct contact with moisture. They will be under a covered deck. They will be exposed to heat/humidity and cold. But shouldn't even get wet directly.
Thanks for any thoughts!
