Opinions on good outdoor speakers!!!

[seaside1]

Just looking for some opinions on good outdoor speakers. I would like to place the speakers under the eave, left and right side, on the back of the house overlooking the patio area. I will be running them from Zone-2 of my Denon AVR-1912.
Thanks

Yes i agree! I have those exact speakers under my patio eves & am very happy with them. My friend got them for my anniversary. He paid $150 & i think is well worth that so at $75 its a steal. Tucking them under the eves really improves their bass response. I dont like the white ones so i got black but thats small beans!!

Thanks I'll check those out. Was also looking at the Atrium 45's from Polk as well.

I bought these outdoor speakers a couple of years ago. They hold up well and have very good sound.

I'd strongly recommend vs Polks.
Dayton is the way to go:

or these if a bit more bass is desired

I really like the JBL Outriggers. Very nice speakers.

Was also thinking about JBL Control 29AV-'s, but wondering if they may be a bit much too much with an 8". Or will something in thr 6 1/2 range put out enough bass?
Thanks

I prefer JBL outdoor speakers, but those Yamaha's are nice too. They get loud too. My Father-in-law has a pair for yard work.

My friend has those Daytons, they are pretty decent. Can't go too wrong for outdoor speakers IMO.
