Chaps

Looking for some outdoor speakers for the patio which have decent sound and are floor standing (and obviously weatherproof.)

I did spot the Bose options which look perfect. Except for the £540 odd price tag.

I don't want something hanging under the eaves or a tinny fake rock type affair.

Have got a Bose soundlink mini in the meantime which is fabulous, just looking for something a bit more punchy.

Aside from the DIY route, any suggestions?

I bought some Acoustic Energy extreme 5s which I'm happy with which I have wall mounted:-

You'd need an amp too if you haven't got one already. If you need an amp, are there any particular features you need? What is the source i.e Ipad/Iphone or otherwise?

Not many options for floor standing outdoor speakers, certainly not in the UK anyhow ...

Sonance do a wide range of garden/outdoor speakers but these are not cheap.
