OSD Audio 5.25" 120W Wireless Bluetooth Outdoor Rock Speaker – Weather Resistant, Slate Dark Grey - 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.

Ordered the OSD8 Bluetooth set after trying two other slightly lower priced Bluetooth rock speakers.They are nicely sized (not tiny like the first two we tried from a different manufacturer).These things sound fantastic……the stereo field is really enjoyable for outside speakers and since you can spread them out with a little extra speaker wire if needed, you can place them perfectly for sound that feels like it’s coming from all over.Bluetooth functionality is slightly limited and basic in nature with a fairly limited range too…..but, it connects well each time and gives you a confirmation time with both connect and disconnect (which I like). Again, for the price point it’s hard to complain about that. They are nicely powered for their size and handle higher volumes well before any break up in sound quality.I’m very happy with these and would highly recommend them as a tremendous value against price point.“Boise, Id customer”

Do not buy. Not worth it and they do not last long.These speakers look nice and have a decent amount of heft to them, leading to the misperception that they are of good quality. One day after the Amazon return window one of the speakers starting crackling. I worked through product support with Amazon and the issue was not resolved. Amazon said that since the return window was closed I need to work with the manufacturer’s warranty. Amazon even gave me their number. I have called multiple times and can get no response from the company.The speaker set up is easy and straightforward. They even come with long cords, both power and speaker, that allow good placement. The mini amplifier is in the power cord and hard to conceal. It is small, and a bit cheap, which lets you know this system does not have much power and sound will suffer. For very low volume this system works, but it does not go very loud. Sound quality is subpar, but is okay for casual listening. Hanging the speakers is easy with the included brackets.The Bluetooth connection is a bit weak. There is no Bluetooth button, so to connect to another device you have to unplug the electrical cord and replug to reset the Bluetooth. It also takes too long for the actual connection to take place, leaving you wondering if it is going to work. The distance for Bluetooth is not very far without cut-outs. (About 20 feet.)The sound quality leaves much to be desired. Small portable Bluetooth speakers have much better sound (but don’t solve the stereo separation issue). The sound is mushy, easily distorted beyond medium volume, and just generally poor. We tried several genres of music (rock, pop, country, rap, etc.) and found that these speakers did not have a sound pattern that was good for any of them.The speakers now sit in my garage not working and the company silent in their ability to help with customer support or warranty. Buyer beware that you are buying a subpar product with no company support.**Update** Just threw them out in the trash. Would have been better off just burning a couple hundred bucks. A total waste. Can not give zero stars, but I would. Very disappointing.

Everything was great about them but the bluetooth was not good. Music cuts in and out when you're standing 5 feet away and the phone is in your pocket or in your hand. Would lose connection when I walked off my patio which was about 20 ft away.

Quality speakersPerfect soundHighly recommend

Tested them inside to make sure they worked, didn't sound so great. Installed them on the deck and there is a huge improvement in sound quality, and loud enough to be heard all over the yard. After several heavy rain storms, no issues.

Commande conforme à la description, haut-paleurs très bien emballés et protégés. Bon son pour des haut-parleurs de 5.25''. Le seul point négatif est l'absence de connecteurs vissés et étanches pour les haut-parleurs. Le fil d'alimentation est pourtant muni d'un tel connecteur mais sans bouchon pour le protéger lorsqu'on le débranche. J'ai du acheter des connecteurs vissés étanches et les souder pour obtenir quelque chose de pratique. Les marettes avec silicone fournies sont inutiles, surtout si on veut débrancher les haut-parleurs pour les ranger et éviter de se faire voler les haut-parleurs.

Easy to set up and connect to BT, sound quality is so so but good enough for the price. Can install at semi outdoor as long as not under direct rain.

They sound amazing perfect for your backyard

Sound is great and took about 30 minutes to install (wall, etc,.. all of it). Very easy.
