I am building a deck this memorial day weekend and I need outdoor speakers. I have looked at Def Tech at 399.99 per pair, and Onix Rockets at 99.99 per pair. I have not listended to either. Big difference in price. Does anyone have any recommendations? I will be powering them with a Denon 2805. I will using SACD, receiver, and XM satellite as sources for music. I wish Axiom made outdoor speakers. Budget is not necessarily an issue. I want good sounding speakers at a reasonable price.
Thanks,
Scott

I dunno...I can imagine the likes of me after a couple of cold ones trying to figure out how in the hell can those plants sing like that. May be good for some but they might not be such a good idea around my household.

LOL...that's like going to the Sam's Club and walking past the hidden 'rock' speakers, WTF??? Good thing those contraptions weren't around back in the day, I can see where that could have been real, real bad!

One of my local stores carry the Klipsch. I will have to check them out. I have not been able to find anyone locally that has the Def Techs and Onix are online. I was hoping someone had some of the Def Techs or Onix and could chime in. I think I will go this weekend and listen to the Klipsch. What is everybody else using?

I went with the Rocket OD100's. I finished the deck this memorial day weekend and installed the speakers. They sound great. Right now I have my Denon 2805 and XM satellite ran to them. As soon as I pick up the new grill, firepit and patio furniture, I will post some pics of the new deck. I highly recommend the Rocket outdoor speakers. For $99 they are a steal. I still wish Axiom made outdoor speakers.
