With spring rapidly approaching I've been googling waterproof Bluetooth speakers that I can use poolside, but most of them are geared toward portability, being compact and easy to carry with you, thus they have teeny weeny drivers.
I'd like something a bit less "portable" but with big sound, like something you'd want in a pool party. It should be waterproof (or at least water resistant) for use in pool parties, or in case a storm hits while the speaker is outside. Battery power is nice but not essential (I can plug it in on the deck). Decent Bluetooth range would be nice since I usually keep my laptop upstairs and with my little Sony system I use now I have to move the laptop downstairs to get a stable connection with the stereo on the deck. Also, this stereo is a 4 piece system so a hassle to bring in and out and it's not waterproof.
So far the best bet appears to be the Altec Lansing ALP-XP800 Xpedition 8... at least in terms of size. Some reviews says it sounds tinny though despite its size. It's a bit pricey at $399 as well.
Anyone have any recommendations? Thanks...
