Would you consider these speakers waterproof enough to attach to swim platform with marine velcro for temporary use when swimming. They will get wet.

I actually don't know the answer to your question. You will need to have a strong amplifier to drive these speakers outdoors with lots of pool activity, noise, and splashing. Mine do well, but I have them mounted on a wall underneath a patio cover near a pool. The rain will never get on them however I live in a humid area with plenty of moisture. I have heard of people mounting these on party barges. I imagine that on a boat they are bound to get wet from rain, etc.

I have them installed on my boat. They really do not get direct water to them. But they do get moisture on a daily basis. They may get wet here in there when were running but that's about it. I've had no issues to date. But I'm not sure if they would work for your application. The speakers are quite heavy.

could be suitable, size is right but they are thin - if you need waterproof, consider cutting up a felt backed vinyl tablecloth

Speakers I got we're not list as MARINE type so probably shouldn't be in a wet environment

Wanna say water resistant. ... yes. I have them mounted on my waverunner & so far have been working great

Mine are within my sprinkler coverage, plus the rain and are fine. The only caution I would point out is if the sprinklers are aimed directly into the side of the speaker that could be a problem. My sprinklers are aimed high enough that they shower down on the speakers. Also I need to mention that I have replaced each of my speakers after around 5 years. I believe it's more due to the hot southern sun than water. For the price they have excellent sound. Hope this helps.

I'm not sure these are actually rated for underwater or how to create a true waterproof connection. In my experience the manufacturing on these is not perfect. I had one recently fill with water just sitting in the garden for landscape lighting. The most it would have been exposed to was the sprinklers and a bit of rain. Otherwise, in my case, they mostly work well as landscape uplights.

I would say "yes" because they are "water-proof", if that is the version you purchase. I bought waterproof and have them for outdoors on my deck. Your idea sounds very unique! They should last 20 years. Bryan

I guess it depends on your definition of water proof. I have them out on my patio. they've been out there for about 3 months. I clean the deck (pool area) about every week and the speakers have been "hit" with water indirectly. I move them up onto a table as I clean and I have never directly "hosed" them down but they have been subjected to water and seem to be doing just fine. Hope this helps

Yes, absolutely. Quick tip - be sure to purchase waterproof connectors for the speaker leads or the wires will corrode within a year. With the correct connectors we haven't had any issues!

they are designed for boat so I would say water resistant but not proof, you don't want to immerse them into water.

I mounted them on a motorcycle I think that they are weatherproof but I would not put them on a boat trailer and submerse them.

Our speakers were installed in a cooler and run off of a marine battery. We use it when we go canoeing. Our canoe was flipped and the cooler was floating down the river still playing music. They still work even after that. We have not had any problems. So in my opinion YES they are water proof!

I ordered these speakers and mounted them under my pontoon boat. My pontoon has a great amount of speed for it has an inboard/outboard motor. Because of this, these speakers get extremely wet and still perform well. I am not sure about humidity within a shower but as far as getting wet, they should perform well.

Yes they are water proof, but to a certain extent. You dont want them getting soaked all the time.

You should buy speakers designed for outdoor or marine use. Even though they are protected, the humidity is likely to eventually have an impact since they were not made for that. I wouldn't even put them in a bathroom that gets humidity from a shower.

No. The silicone cover would probably protect them to some degree in a sudden downpour, but the speakers themselves are not sealed against any kind of water intrusion.

My guess is that they would work OK. The ear cushions and headband are covered with a plastic that seems to resist water.
