8 Outdoor wireless speakers for the best summer parties ever
Considering barbecues and outdoor parties will be keeping you busy for most summer weekends, it's time you upgrade your audio. These impressive outdoor wireless speakers can handle the elements without compromising sound quality.
- Are wireless speakers better than wired ones? A wireless speaker is definitely better for taking on the go. However, since it depends on wireless connectivity, there might be disturbances in audio quality caused by signal interference.
- How do you connect outdoor wireless speakers? Most offer Bluetooth connectivity with your mobile devices or laptops so you can play your music directly. Other systems offer daisy-chaining where you can connect multiple speakers.
- How many watts is essential for outdoor speakers? A pair of 60-watt patio speakers installed under eaves 20 feet apart is ideal for coverage in areas less than 300 square feet. For 300 to 500 square feet, you need to go for 80 to 100-watt speakers; 150 watts to 175-watt speakers will cover 600 to 800 square feet with clear, sharp music sound at soft volumes.
