I was looking for some quality Bluetooth speakers for my new Gazebo. I found plenty of options at a lower price with smaller woofers. But their reviews were mixed. One problem I found with nearly all these BT speakers is they over state their Wattage. They play games with Peak Power not RMS which is a more realistic measure of power. So I decided to spend a little more on a well know brand that has been in business for decades, Pyle, though they also state the power as 800 Watts which should shack the house down.
I received them and was surprised as how big, heavy and well constructed they are. They were very easy to mount. I turned them on, paired them with my Cellphone to play music and was pleasantly surprised on how loud they can get with excellent sound quality. Very good highs and decent base even for a 6.5 inch woofer. I did get one big surprise. My phone battery was getting low so I took my phone into the house to charge. The BT remained connect from inside my house through an exterior wall that it stucco (cement) all the way to the Gazebo about 30 feet away. So if I want, I can leave my phone on its charger and broadcast music all the way to a Gazebo.
Only 2 issues I had was 1) The passive Speaker wire they included was too short and too small a gauge wire, so I replaced it with a better RCA connector and 16 gauge wire. 2) The Bluetooth pairing acknowledgment signal is very loud and annoying. I use my Cell phone to broadcast my music to the speakers so I have to repair them each time I go to the Gazebo. The volume control on the speaker is hard to reach once installed so I leave it at maximum and control the volume from my cellphone. So when they pair, which is automatic when they are near each other, it pairing acknowledgment signal is very loud. Neither of these issues were worth lowering my rating from 5 stars because the positives really far outweigh these two issues.
One side note: When mounting theses speakers in a semi-enclosed structure like a Gazebo the sound is well contained in Gazebo. So I can really turn up the volume without irritating the neighbors.

Good speakers, perfect for me
I purchased these to attach to an old non-smart TV, with a very weak sound amplifier, in my home gym (watch the news when cycling, cable music when weightlifting).Originally, I bought less expensive speakers of the same brand, without a separate volume control, thinking I could adjust it with the TV volume control, but it doesn't work that way, only having one volume...full blast!So, I went to these, strictly for the volume control feature, as I really didn't need anything this large or sophisticated.However, I'm very glad I did, as the sound is much more robust, full, and precise, than the first set, powerful, too, really quite excellent.They work well for my application, mounted pretty easily, and have plenty of volume (control knob is fine, if somewhat inaccessible), inside anyway, can't speak to outside, or any of the other features, such as waterproofness, etc.The included standard size RCA cable the instructions said to thread thru the hole in the bracket didn't fit, too large.Further, even if they had, and you put them thru, they'd be between the bracket and the wall, requiring the bracket to be loose and unstable, as opposed to flush against the wall.I just plugged them in, stapled the cables to the wall, and bundled the excess behind, between the speaker and the bracket, as I had to use longer cables, due to the greater space between I required, than those included.As the speakers are high on the wall, I have to use a stepstool every time I need to modify the volume, and then can do it only by touch, since it's on the back.I suggest the volume control be detented (have click stops), so you're able to return to the same settings, for various, different times.It would also be nice to have the option of a volume control, with a wire, so it could be mounted lower on the wall, separately, and within easy reach.These aspects of the design needs modification by the manufacturer, in my opinion.Other than these small things, I recommend them, they're pretty nice!4/15/24 UPDATE: Downgraded to 3 stars, as when using it hardwired, with RCA cables, Blutooth remains active, randomly stops playing for a few minutes, apparently scannin g for a signal, then starts playing again. Pyle customer service offered no solution to this problem. This is a design flaw, as using it with RCA cables should overide & disable the Blutooth, or they should include a separate switch to do so.

Installation:
I've waited to write a review to have some time for evaluation. Speakers physically are sturdy and were easy to install on my pergola, the brackets are adequate and do the job. The RCA connection on the powered speaker is a bit flimsy when pushing the connector in but works fine and have had no issues. The passive speaker connections are very sturdy and work very well. I did solder an additional piece of wire for the passive speaker since the original one is too short. I had read where some people had issues with the rubber covers not sealing well and even popping off after wires were connected so I took some black duct tape and sealed the edges so they wouldn't come off. I've had several hard downpours and have had no issues with water getting in the speakers. I plan to cover them in the future when I find something that works well for my setup.
Sound and Bluetooth:
Bluetooth connection has worked great and have had no issues with it disconnecting, I have even been able to walk in my house with my phone in my pocket and not lose connection. The only complaint would be the LOUD sound it makes when the Bluetooth connects, although I believe that is because I have the volume on the powered speaker maxed due to the inconvenience of having manually turn it on and increase the volume knob every time I want to connect them. I just plug-in and un-plug and extension cord for that. The sound quality is decent and is worth the price for the speakers. The 600W is plenty of power if you really want to irritate your neighbors and doesn't distort unless you are turning it up all the way. As others have mentioned, the base is lacking but not as bad as some have stated in some of their reviews, in my option. I plan on getting an outdoor subwoofer and splicing it into the speaker wire for the passive speaker to provide deeper base.
My only two real complaints is the way they have done the covers on the rear of the speakers (should have a tight snap-on cover that seals the edges) and the short thin gauge wire for the passive speaker. I will update this if there are any changes to the sound,, operation or weatherproofing with the speakers.
