OSD Audio 5.25" Wireless Bluetooth Outdoor Rock Speaker 120W – Weather Resistant, Sandstone Canyon Brown - BTR-150

I was looking for 3 things for my front porch: Outdoor, wired to a plug (not needing to charge a battery), and bluetooth capable. I don't want to have to plug my phone into some cord every time I want to play a song. I don't want to worry about charging a portable speaker. I wanted the speakers to just always be on and ready to connect on my front porch.Five important things that I didn't get from the other reviews:1. These were way bigger than I expected. The 5.25" is the size of the inside speaker but the actual size of each case is much bigger. I was ok with this; just surprised when I opened the box.2. Many reviews say the speaker wire between them is 10'. The power wire connecting the 1st speaker to the outlet is maybe 10' and the wire connecting speaker 2 to speaker 1 is more like 20'. All wires are black. I wrapped them in white electrical tape to blend with my house trim better.3. Mine didn't have instructions on how to mount but it was basically self-explanatory. It was also missing 4 screws that would mount it to the house. So I'm not sure if this was a mistake but it was a pretty easy thing to resolve. I used some screws from the garage and they worked just fine. I used Everbuilt size #10x2". I'm sure yours will have the mounting screws...but who knows.4. When I first plugged these in to test the sound was inside and they sounded just so-so. My wife suggested I try them outside since they're outdoor speakers. So I did and they sounded amazing! I don't know what kind of voodoo magic it was but these sounded fantastic once outside so be sure to take yours outside to hear them.5. Bluetooth connecting is really easy. I did go to my garage out back and lost connection. When I returned the music was off and I had to reconnect but that was easy to do. This is the whole point of why I got them. I want to be able to pull my phone out at any given moment and just connect. Always on, always ready, no wires. Just connect and play.For a little over $100 this was a solid purchase. The sound is great, installation was super easy (assuming you can drill/screw into something), and connectivity is easy.

I was hesitant to purchase again from OSD because I have an older pair of speakers (non-bluetooth) which lasted about 5 years and I had some trouble with the non-weather proof power supply. That said,the speakers did not fail but rather were inadvertently damaged by gardening implements (weed whacker).First and foremost the speakers sound great! The installation was easy and their have definitely been some design improvements from older versions (WRT8000). For example the new models have a power cord extension (about 12") and a weather insulated connector. I placed this in a socket protector to ensure it's protected from the elements and gardening tools. As with older versions the 12VDC power supply is NOT weather rated and needs to be placed in a weather tight enclosure. This is something I'd hope they address with future models as it seems counter intuitive to have an otherwise great weather proof product without a weather tight power supply.The remainder of the hookup was simple. They provide about 30' of speaker cable which can be easily buried, run through conduit, or just placed on the ground along the fence line. A small knob Philips head screwdriver is all that is needed to loosen the terminal posts to insert the wire leads. The polarity is marked albeit you may have to hold it an angle to see it.The bluetooth connectivity is as easy as it gets and I was able to easily connect the following devices: iPhone6, MacBookPro, Kindle Fire Table and a few others. The bluetooth ID is "BT Speaker" which is a bit generic. I would prefer it to be called "OSD Rock Speaker" or something other than just BT Speaker, but this is nit-picking.From unpacking, wiring, to listening to music was less than 20 minutes.Sounds great! Would definitely recommend!
