Is this speaker outdoor friendly?

I do not know but I doubt it. I expect that if the speaker were designed to be outdoor friendly on a permanent basis it would be advertised as such. I'm sure that for a few hours say for a party it would be fine.

I would say not for long-term use. If you wanted to plug it in outside while you were there then yes but not for the direct sun or weather /rain

I've only used it outdoors under a closed deck - and then only as a "instant" music speaker that I then take in when we're finished. I'm on an expert, but given the casing, etc, I'd say it's not an outdoor speaker as a regular or permanent fixture.

Not really meant for outdoors.....although it will work if plugged into an electrical socket, in range of Wi-Fi, and protected from rain, moisture, etc.

I don't think Bose endorses them for outdoor use. However, if you live in a moderate climate without too many extremes and shelter them from rain and direct sun, they could work. For the record, I thought about installing them on our deck (sheltered) and decided instead to go with wireless speakers that I keep indoors when not in use. Also Bose makes some great outdoor speakers that might be better suited for your purpose. I have a set that have gone through fairly extreme weather and still sound great.

This type of microphone does not care if it is outside, but if I were to put it outside, I would protect it from the elements (sun and rain) if possible. Mine came with shrink tubing and looks pretty weatherproof to me.

It is not water proof nor is it meant necessarily for outside use... I have not used it outside. I also feel the dirt and dust that could get into it would be a problem. It would work outside, if you have a place to plug it in, I just don't think it will last outside. Also I'm just a consumer so...

I have mine outside, but they sound great. I would not be afraid to have them in a small retail space.

I don't believe these speakers were designed for outdoor use. Admitted you stated the patio was covered, but being subjected to temperature and humidity variances would make me concerned about it.Hope this helps you.

No it is not, it is water resistant, however there are some uncovered speaker holes in the bottom.

My opinion no.. I mean when I rake my leaves its good but its just for me it depends how many ppl r going to be there. Is it a closed area park.. depending on how much volume u want.. I call this speaker a personal speaker. Maybe the "bose" would be better for u... hope this helps

It is completely sealed and the isolation is thick enough, so I guess there is no problem to use this cable with outdoor speakers. However I would use some banana plugs terminals (if your speakers accept them) to protect the exposed cooper from the weather and bugs and prolong the life of the connection.

it is ok -- when you buy an outdoor water restiant speaker that I use in the shower you do not need the best quality with all the ambient sounds from the shower or outside with the wind blowing or dog barking. I am happy with the unit.

It would surely work for an outdoor party. If you want something that will blast your guest with sound, this will not be for you. This speaker will produce good sound for any type music. Including Jazz and Classical music.

This is one of the most rugged and sturdy outdoor bluetooth speakers out there! With that said, it is very important to know that it is not 100% weather or material proof. I would say it's not even 50% proof. It is made to get a little wet or dirty, but I would not subject it to too much sand or water. Especially with sand, that can get inside and screw things up!

The directions say it will not work well in high temperatures and it is not sand durable I would say but the volume would be OK. If you are looking for a speaker at the beach it may not be the best choice.

It is a good sound quality and I am satisfied so far. I like good clear crisp sound too. It has that but maybe not the rich deep base that you can get from a large box simply because of the size. But not bad, pound for pound it rocks! For a party? I might use my home system. But I got this speaker for the road to use on the beach, on the dock, and by the pool. It works perfect for that! Hope this helps! I am a satisfied user and use it often for convenient sound when I need it. I'm not sure about the water proof part, I have not got it really wet yet. I still avoid water the best I can with it.

You can run some external speakers on the deck or patio with the addional B speakers. The type depends on your taste and costs. But if their outdoor you shouldn't have any issues finding good quality outdoor speakers. Hope I helped.

Outdoor speakers are weather resistant. NOT waterproof. They must be installed in an area that is protected from falling water. UV rays from the Sun will destroy anything it touches over time. Morning dew will not bother them. Occasional water will not harm them. But direct rain will undoubtedly harm any speakers. "Marine Grade" speakers are as close to waterproof as they come. "Marine Grade" speakers will resist a salt water environment. But even they must be rinsed off after a day at sea. My advice is that you find a place where your speakers will be protected from the rain & sun. Moisture & heat will not harm them. But direct water & direct sun will destroy anything. I live in Florida. I understand this better than anyone. Products which were advertised as indestructible, water proof, sun proof etc don't survive here in Florida. Again. Put these under an eve, overhang or other protection. Otherwise you will replace them in a couple of years.
