My dash speakers in my old Jeep YJ were tinny sounding and I couldn"t hear them with the top off. Jeeps are loud in general but without the top on even worse. I needed something loud and weatherproof, and these were so inexpensive I gave them a try. Now I can hear my tunes easily. They're loud and my music sounds great. I just bolted them under the dash as shown, not too concerned about looks on my old beater. Originally they were silver, but I gave them a quick couple of coats of flat black and they don't look so bad.
I don't write too many reviews, but these speakers deserve a 5 star rating. They have a nice sound and better yet they are truly weather proof. I took them to my house construction project in Centeral America and set them up on the construction site to provide some music while we were working. I put them in a window on a partially constucted wall of the house. I forgot to stow them on a Thursday of a three day weekend. It rained hard and almost continuously the three days. Monday when we came in they were still playing and there was no change in the sound quality. I actually poured a glass of water out of each of them while they were still playing. That was a month ago and they are still working just like new. They are a great value, sound great and more than live up to their "weather proof" description.
These were used to replace some Bose speakers that were sounding terrible after 6 years outside on the deck. The sound is really good and the base is better than I expected.
The only downside is the mounting is strange. You cannot side mount it easily since the bracket is loose (speaker swivels on mounting even when tight). It is only for hanging from above (and even then is loose and will not hold its position against wind). I ended up adding my own locking washer to get it to hold.
I needed speakers for my deck and yard, but didn't want to spend a fortune. These speakers work great. They are not the loudest speakers out there, but I can easily annoy my neighbors if I wanted to. I have had them up for a few months in the weather and they are still working witch is a plus.
Pros: Great price, decent sound for backyard
Cons: Not for audiophiles or someone needing a ton of sound. These are not concert speakers.
The way the hand screws attach through the bracket to the speaker SUCKS! One of the screw holes actually stripped out and they cannot actually be tightened. Very poor design but given the very low price, this is expected though disappointing. Loose a star for that but still 4 stars because of the VERY LOW PRICE and the great sound. I used these in my newly landscaped backyard and they were an AWESOME finishing touch. Let's hope they hold up to outdoor weather as advertised.

Sound and look great
Great product.
Used these all month in October for our Halloween display. They worked in the rain too. Only problem was that I thought they were gonna be black so I just spray painted them.
not 100% perfection, but great for the price. brackets are a bit flimsy, yet I didnt have the problems others mentioned with things breaking loose. time will tell
Nice small speakers can be hidden away anywhere.
