Another pair of 2 way outdoor speakers which have been very well built to fair against the weather is this set from Yamaha's outdoor bookshelf series. They are a compact pair, affordably priced and despite running at just 100 watts they manage to muster up some rather powerful driver performance.

| WHAT OUR TEAM THOUGHT | |
They have been beautifully built, especially given the fact they are a budget pair. All the circuitry and crossover is very up-to-date, they provide a natural balance and decent range even with low quality amplifiers. |
The Kevlar cone is super rigid and the InvisiBall mounting system allows for flexibility with placement and ultimately better outdoor audio clarity. |
