Has anyone used this speaker outdoors?

I have used it outdoors but unless the source device is also outside the range is pretty limited when the bluetooth signal has to go thru the house wall.

i am not sure. i use it in my bedroom. The sound is good, but for outdoors it might not be so great. you also have to take into consideration that this speaker needs to be plug into a wall outlet. It does not have an internal battery.

Sorry I took so long, but I just used it outdoors today!! It performed as I expected, very well!!! My neighbors came out as I was working on my car and were very impressed with the sound, and equally impressed that it was wireless. The range was about 50 feet. Good enough for me. Again, theoretically it's wireless but is powered by an AC cord, which for the extra volume and bass is alright with me. Hope this helps you out.

I've used it outdoors at little league baseball games several times. I got a lot of good comments for other parents. It must be loud "enough".

Hi Jeannette. These speakers are designed for outdoor use and are water resistant, not water proof. When properly installed the speaker(s) can withstand light showers, or water and moisture contact, as well as direct sunlight.

I don't think you should use these outside. They would not be protected from the elements.They may last a year or two days depending on how wet they got. Polk Audio sells outside speakers for all seasons. Unfortunately the don't recess but they sound great.

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.

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.

That is good. I leave mines outside all year around and unplug when not using them. I'm always been nervous about leaving things plugged up when i'm not using them, especially outside. Enjoy the speakers.

Yes, it totally works outdoors, and is especially good when it hits the side of a building. We've used it in our back yard with no problems - about 15ft from the speaker to the unit - and it picked up the music with no problems. In terms of visible range, we've also used it inside in a middle school gym, and the lights reached the ceiling and walls easily. Hope this helps.

Yes, I use my on the patio. Sounds good. Took it my friends and use it at their pool. Then they went and bought one the next day.

Yes you can use them outside. In fact they sound better outdoors since that's what they are designed for. While they can take the weather you should use commen sense and try to protect them from the elements as best as you can so they last for many years. They are priced per speaker not as a pair. So it's one speaker per box if that helps.

I've yet to use it on the beach, but I'd be more concerned with ambient noise than I would sand. This is a GREAT indoor speaker; whether or not it's good outdoors is relative.

You would find it better to connect speakers directly to your player. For an outdoor setting you will need some strong sound amplification.

Yes. It's loud enough to play outside. I have used it for small get togethers and baroques.it works good.

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.

Yes, it is more than adequate. I use the speakers outdoors near the pool area. I purchased this at a discounted price compared to current price.
