Outdoor Speaker?

[Darva]

Anyone know of some good outdoor speakers?
Looking for something to use out at bonfires/pool/outdoor parties.
Needs to be loud and good quality audio. Bluetooth would be great.
I was thinking about getting an ION.
Anyone know of or have experience with some others?

Just bought a JBL Charge3 this past weekend. it is amazing. You can get more than 1 if desired and bluetooth them together. One is plenty loud around our pool with kids splashing and dogs barking. You will not be disappointed.

My Klipsch speakers were wired in as part of the house build in 2009 but they perform great. Bet they have a BT version now...

Need a little more info.

I have a JBL Charge, it is great for a little bluetooth rechargeable speaker.

I also have some 15" powered PA speakers, now we are talking LOUD, and CLEAR. But you have to have AC, and they aren't bluetooth, but did I mention they are LOUD?

Bose sound link mini is a great Bluetooth outdoor speaker. Rechargeable so you don't need
To drag a cord near a pool.
It's amazing how much volume this unit can produce.

I have a charge that I use for poolside. I was at the Metallica concert in Denver. A guy next to our tailgate had an ION tailgater. I was impressed with it.

What's the brand on those PA speakers?
JBL charge seems like high quality but small, I'm looking something that will fuel a bonfire party a little bit better than a truck stereo would.

This is what I'm looking at right now;

I concur with DH here, I own a Bose SoundTouch 30, and 3 JBL Garge 3's (my sons each have one) .......... yes the Bose sounds better but it's 500 bucks and requires AC power . It's louder and better quality sound then the Charge 3 but the difference is minimal .....but for the size and the length of battery life I'd just get two JBL charge 3's and link them ...they are one hell of a product for the money.ill post a pic to show these size difference ......I use the Bose in the garage and the JBL everywhere else , boats, hot tub ......

JBL Charge 3, wife has it, son has Charge 2, and my daughter has a Beats Pill. Charge 3 is our favorite, just took it to Cozumel with us.

Alto Truesonic TS215's.

We are talking about 2 different leagues here, these things will rock a bonfire like you've never seen. You could get a set for around $600-$700...

I took them to a pool party last weekend, the guy had a nice outdoor sound system that he had spent over $1500 on, all he could say was "WOW", and "where can I get some of those?"

I picked this set up, like new, with a couple of lights, and a small mixing board for $800.
