Bought these speakers for outside based on several reviews from Amazon and ecoustic. I have them connected to a Onkyo Tx-sr705(also bought from Amazon) and set to zone2. I bought a pair of inexpensive swivel mounts from Frys,no need to buy the overpriced ones. They sound great for their size and can handle the power easily. Don't let their price fool you, you are getting great speakers at half the price of other "name brand" speakers.

This is the second time I've purchased these speakers for my outdoor deck. The first set lasted about 13 years. They probably would have lasted even longer if I'd brought them inside every winter. The sound is great for this price range. originally I compared them to a set of outdoor speakers from a high-end stereo shop...these sounded much better to me. They don't come with any kind of bracket to attach them to a wall, but they have two holes on the back of each speaker, and they provide a template, so it's fairly easy to figure out. The second set I purchased were exactly the same size as the first...so they fit on the same screws I had installed thirteen years ago. One downside might be that they don't swivel, but if you install them facing the direction you want them to be in it shouldn't be a problem. I have had many years of enjoyment from these speakers...and compliments too.

We auditioned 5 different speakers before we decided on the BIC. These included Boston Acoustics and Klipsch outdoor speakers. Although these were the least expensive BY FAR, they tied for best sound quality. We are planning to buy 3 more sets this summer !
