[kortex]

1) No. Two reasons. Reason 1: Difficulty in running speaker wire / lack of quality wireless transmission devices. Reason 2: Worried about spending money on something that will sit outside!

2) Loudness, ability to adjust volume without going inside, portability. I would add a fourth that wasn't listed...weather resistance!!

3) Yes.

4) Patio outside the back door. Near grill, table, etc..

5) I wanna win.
