You can transform any outdoor space into an immersive audio experience with the AW6500 All-Weather Outdoor Speaker. This high-quality speaker, designed by the reputable Definitive Technology, delivers clear, expansive sound that rivals a home theater system. Equipped with a powerful 6.5" mid-bass driver and a massive 10" passive bass radiator, this speaker produces deep, impactful bass that fills your outdoor space with rich, full-frequency audio even at low volumes. The high-definition Aluminum Dome Tweeters deliver clean, detailed treble, ensuring a balanced sound that's as clear as the big, blue sky.This outdoor speaker is not just about powerful sound. It's also built to last. The weatherproof design protects your speaker from the elements, making it a reliable choice for all-weather use. The tough PolyStone exterior is fade-resistant and can withstand all that nature can muster, ensuring longevity and durability.The AW6500 speaker also offers flexible placement options. The integrated galvanized steel mounting brackets and unique enclosure shape enable full 360-degree rotation, allowing you to place your speakers just about anywhere while directing the audio to reach everywhere. The speaker's innovative Balanced Double Surround System (BDSS) technology, the same driver technology found in Definitive Technology's top indoor speakers, delivers output usually associated with a larger driver, while retaining a smaller driver's improved dispersion and midrange definition for clear, impactful sound. The AW6500 speaker also features a deeply drawn mineral-filled polymer cone, engineered using sophisticated 3D modeling techniques, for wide-range performance. This, coupled with the cone's integrated waveguide, ensures broad, even dispersion and better imaging throughout your space.With its higher frequency response, zero-latency video sync, and rock-solid performance, the AW6500 speaker delivers reliability and sound quality far beyond wireless speakers. Whether you're hosting a backyard party or simply enjoying a quiet evening on the patio, the AW6500 All-Weather Outdoor Speaker is ready to play come rain or shine.

Purchased two of the speakers from Crutchfield. One failed 14 months after purchase the second one failed just outside the five year warranty. Very disappointed given the price paid for these units. There are more reliable, less expensive alternatives to consider.

Poor quality

I bought these for my back yard. Every time someone comes over they always ask what brand the speakers are. Everyone loves the way they sound. Very clear! 2 of my brother n laws already bought a pair.

Really good sounding Speakers

I am still in the break in period. I hope it gets better.

Waiting for peak performance

I have these hooked for about 2 weeks. They are hooked up to the emotiva PT1 and emotiva A-300 amp. They sound clear and great at lower volumes, but if you play at a higher volume (which is what we like) the base becomes harsh and crackles. I even called def tech before ordering to be sure the speakers would pair well with my emotive equipment. So I'm going to assume it's a speaker issue not a component issue.

Distorted base at higher volumes

seriously impressed. I'm SO happy with my purchase.

Amazing outdoor speakers

These outdoor speakers sound very nice on our back patio. We're fortunate to have a covered portico where we were able to mount them vertically with opposing side walls to reflect passive radiator bass sound equally. We have an older Yamaha Aventage A/V receiver which provides 150 watts per channel to our zone 2 Def Techs, controlled wirelessly through the Yamaha controller app. The speakers play background music sweetly at low volume, and really pump out nice, full range sound when cranked up. Bass is quite good at party volume. Have to be very careful not to get kicked out of the neighborhood! Very happy with our purchase.

Great patio speakers!

This is my second pair of these and I'll be ordering a third to complete my system. Amazing sound, well worth the investment!  3rd year on my first pair without issue.

AW6500

Had them now for 7 years and use them almost every day.  They sounded better than I would have expected.  Used them in my home theater setup, very wife friendly and paintable (White. Matched with a Rythmik sub the system home theater sounds like I'm at the movies.
