Im looking at getting a pair of nice outdoor speakers for my father for Xmas. Im only looking to spend around $100- $150max cdn. Now finding the speakers is not the real problem, what my real quesiton is, is how should he power these? He cant have wires running into the house, its to far away from the house where these will be mounted. So what are his options for powering them? Now these will be under a roof. He built a changeroom/ bar beside the pool, and i thought for xmas would be a good idea to get him some outdoor speakers for when he has friends/parties. But ive been picking my brain on how he could run a cheap reciever and cd player or maybe just use a real cheap stereo, and hook the speaker wire into one of those? Not sure on how they hold up in humidity and wet weather.
