[sc2]

I am looking into some outdoor speakers, does anybody have any experience with these? or do you have other recommendations.

thanks!

They pretty much jam, need a lot of power, and don't have as much adjustability as other outdoor speakers. The WM4's and 2's aren't worth the money.

For less money the Polk Atrium 55's are really nice as well.

I have the W6's on my patio. They are driven by a Rotel 1062 integrated, 60 wpc I think. They sound very, very good. Far better than other outdoor speakers I've heard. The downside is that they cost more than other outdoor speakers.

This is good to hear, my dealer also recommends speakercraft OE8-three ($800 pr), he says, these sound much better than the WM6's, more bass, (he sells both). Anybody heard the speakercrafts?

Also, do/ would you run these in a mono output? Lots to consider...

Yes I have them as well four pairs around the yard great music but be careful if you live on the coast they rust after 4 years!!!

No, they are not run in mono. Also, I've had no issues with their build quality.
They are quite durable and they sound good.

I also have the W6 speakers on my deck and they sound great.
