Thanks fellas for some audio reviews rather than the paint finish. I'm thinking I need some outdoor speakers for my back deck and was thinking of some Klipsch for $150 or the Yamaha for $199 that come with a mounting bracket...since its outside and all.

I probably will not do it until next summer as its almost fall her in western Canada. Plus I need to get a 2ch amp with A/B to run them...but will give the Algonquins a serious thought despite the extra cost compared to the Yamaha's.
