45 users rated 4.8 out of 5 stars

I'm honestly blown away. I have these on my house with a pair of HF11 rock speakers in gardens on the oppocite side of the backyard and the sound fills the yard (150' x 90') perfectly. They are clear and balanced at both low background or LOUD PARTY levels. I can't believe that I get such awesome sound at this price. Additionally, the buying process was flawless - fast shipping - Thanks OSD! - Ted G.

If you have them hooked up right, they sound great. If you don't have a subwoofer make sure you can hook them up so all the sound is going to the speakers. They sound really nice if you can do that. - NO2POP

Bought these along with a Audio source amp back in may ,really excellent speakers. just called today bought another pair,my yard is LIT UP with awesome sound, they blow my Bose 151's away!! - ricky l

Over thee had years, I've had Bose, KLH And JBL out on my patio. All of the above were great at producing high quality sound. The AP525's sound better then the above speakers. The big difference that amazed me the most was the sound dispersion throughout my yard (100"w x 75' d} was astounding. The clarity is crisp and vibrant even at lower volumes.Big KUDOS to OSD. Oh yeah the price is great too! - MarkG

awsome online store!! have recomended to many of my friends!! keep it up guys.. - Ali

These are used in an outdoor setting, hidden in a tree and along the eave of the hosue. They sound great. This is a challenging location due to distance from the ear and height. I was very skeptical about using a 5.25" cone, I just knew it needed more area but they work and work so well, I bought another set. Thanks! - Jim

I hooked up these speaker in my back yard and the sound was outstand. Good bass, nice clarity and stereo imaging. For the price you can not beat them. - Keith

I ordered 2 of these excellent speakers from here and 2 Infinity Outriggers from Costco (easy return policy:). I stacked them right on top of one another and began the comparisson. AC/DC, Metallica, Bee Gees, Garth Brooks, you name it. The verdict, I know own 4 of these, 2 on the back patio and 2 near the pool. The Infinities were slighly louder but not better, especially for over $100 more! By these and you will not regret it! - Doug

Decent product at a good price! - Bud

I have these speakers outside and the sound is great. Love the design of the speakers as well. - Big Green

These speakers are the absolutle best.....Tried wireless speakers with not luck, just plenty of static.....These speakers are so clear and work great on my deck. - STEPHEN

I can't believe how great these speakers sound in my backyard. I checked Bose and Polk in store but I think these are much better for the money. The range is good, but just a little more bass would make these speakers flawless. So I bought the subwoofer, you have to connect the subwoofer directly to the receiver, as it produces a lots power. They sound great no matter where you are sitting. - Jeff

I recently received a pair of the AP525 speakers and installed them myself today -- They sound great!! I would recommend them to anyone. I had been looking at a set of Klipsch that would have cost me 4 times as much and these sound just as good! - Adam

This is the 2nd pair I have had. First pair lasted 13 years and I never brought them inside even in midwest winters. I bought a pair of Bose outdoor speakers before I found these and they lasted less than 2 years. The Bose speakers sound quality was worse and the price was 2.5 times higher than these. Its a no brainer. - John

I just installed these on my deck yesterday. I have a Bose 28III system and using Bose Link. I didn't expect a lot, and bought them just for background, but they are incredible sounding speakers. I hear the definition that I wasn't expecting. I am very impressed. I'm ordering in wall speakers for the dining room and living room just because these sound so incredible. Thank you!!!! - William Waggoner

I hooked them up to an old receiver in my basement. They sound great from what I can tell. Can't wait to get them hung. - Branden

Just purchased these speakers and they were easy to install. The are very well built, great sound, perfect for the patio area and they really crank without distortion! I will purchase a second pair asap for the hot tub area as well. - JD

You have to listen it to believe the good sound. I was in Best Buy and heard the Bose 151, not very impress by their sound especially when I saw the price. These speakers give Bose a run for the money. - Beth

These speakers have great sound and plenty of power. I am 100% satisfied with this purchase, and can't negative thing to say about [...] this product. - Jason

Awesome deal on an awesome pair of outdoor speakers. easy ordering and FAST shipping!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND! - Padraig

I just got them 3 days ago - I had a party on Sat. night, and these speakers really rock. They performed w/out a flaw. They blew away the Klispch, Bose and others in the 300.00 range i listen to in Best Buy - no distortion, clarity and depth. Can't wait to listen to them this evening when I get home from work. - Vernon

I bought the 70V version of this speaker for my 1000 sq ft patio at my restaurant. Four speakers were more than enough to cover the patio evenly, specifically at low volumes. I wired them to a 100W 70 Volt amp and I normally have the volume at 2.5-3. At 5-6 the volume is almost at bar levels. They are clean and have excellent bass. The clarity is limited slightly by having them hooked up as 70V vs 8ohm, but that's the nature of the setup. Only complaint I have if any is the mounting bracket is a thin gauge metal, but sufficient. Would highly recommend to anyone who is looking for a quality outdoor speaker. - Alex D.

WOW! I just bought a pair of the AP525 speakers and for the price you can't beat these speakers! There must be quite a mark up on Bose speakers because the AP525's are less than half the price and sound much better! I would say that Bose is ripping off the public! - Larry

These guys were great. They didnt have exactly what i needed so they sent me an upgraded package at no extra cost!!!! Delivery was fast and the product works great! I would definately do business with them in the future! - Bill

As everyone else has been saying, these are great speakers and far exceed my expectations for a very economically priced speaker. The clearyly pop out the tunes in the back yard! - Alex

These speakers are fantasic. This is my 4th set I also bought the speaker selctor box for impedance matching I can select 1 or all 4 sets of speakers - Anonymous

The speakers arrived on time and appear to be of good quality. We are really enjoying them. It's great not having to pack everything in at night. We will recommend your company. Thanks - Morgan

Wonderful service! Will use again! Love the sound of the speakers. They did not have the ones we wanted so they sent a better pair at no extra cost - Matt

I ordered patio speakers and they arrived earlier than expected and the quality is better than expected. Very easy to install and replaced a pair of Polk speakers costing 50% more that failed after 1 year and had no warranty. - David

I have had these speakers for 2 months now and WOW they are great!!! They fill the backyard with great sound. SO HAPPY with the look and sound. For an outdoor speaker they are a huge bang for the buck!!! HIGHLY recommended. They came exactly when the e-mail said they would be here. Iíd definitely consider doing business with outdoorspeakerdepot.com again - Ken

installed 4 of them at an indoor swimming pool. Only tried at half power untill fully broken in. Very Impressed with the sound quality for such a large room. highly recommended. - Anonymous

Installed in less than 15 min - the neighbors now envy our backyard ! I can even hear them 70 feet away in my garden, makes weeding much more fun! great buy ! great price! We are going to buy 2 more for the covered porch. - anna mouse

I was very pleased with the product. It arrived in a timely manner, and works wonderfully well. A great value for the money. - Anne

The speakers arrived Saturday afternoon, I mounted them outdoors, and they sound great. Better than the Bose 151s I had before. Thanks again for the help. Sincerely, Tom - Tom

I bought a pair of these for my new deck and am very pleased. Building a patio below and have purchased 2 morefor that area. Great sound and value for the money. - Jeff

I've had these speakers for a couple of years now and they still play wonderfully. I'm 100 yards from the ocean, have harsh winters, and haven't seen any harm come to the AP525s. Love 'em. - Thor Johnson

Just like many others, I shopped around to find an acceptable pair of outdoor speakers that wouldn't break the bank for my cottage deck. After hooking up the AP525's to my 10 year old home theater in a box reciever, I was shocked to hear the clarity and warmth that these speakers provided. These speakers are as good as advertised! - Dave

They sound fine especially for the price but aren't these Insgnia speakers under a different brand name and sold at the same price? - Anonymous

Good experience buying this speakers, i was expecting something else for that price, but as soon i hook them to the amplifier i was shocked for the quality sound and performance i highly recomended. Excelente experiencial al comprar estos speakers, esperaba otra cosa por el precio, pero tan pronto los conecte al amplificador me impresiono la calidad del sonido, yo los recomiendo altamente - Jairo

I am very pleased with my new AP525 outdoor wall mount speakers; they sound and look fantastic. The sound quality is unbelievably rich, clear, balanced, and the base is really nice. There is unchanging sound throughout my 2400 sq. ft. Backyard; no high or low areas. The transition of sound from indoors to outdoors is outstanding with my Sony DE945 receiver powering whole house audio wall mounts, KLH subwoofer, and Polk center. Thank you Outdoor Speaker Depot for your Excellence in supplying a Superior quality product at an affordable price. I will shop with you for any future purchases and recommend you to all my friends and family. - Leatrice

These speakers are great for outdoor listening, I received them yesterday, hooked them up in the patio, the sound is just great. I didn't push them hard as there is no need, the clarity is good ( using B switch of my Sony receiver). They sound exceptional for the money. - Robert

Just put in a screen in porch and needed some outdoor speakers. So was looking around and found this site. Saw the AP525 speakers and they fit my budget and sounded good so I took a chance. I was not disappointed. They sound great!! I also like the full swing mount brackets, it made installation a lot easier. - Mike

I love these speakers. Much better than Bose. I have them hooked up to a Denon reciever on my patio and they sound great. I reccommended them to my brother and he also loves them. Can not beat the quality and price! - Thomas

Very good sound for a very reasonable price. I feel like I got more than the off the shelf choices - Riskyvol

I am astounded by the quality of these speakers. They easily have plenty of bass to listen to any music in stereo. Yes, even techno music. I mounted mine in my bathroom to listen to music while taking a bath. The speakers seem to be able to handle the environment. (There is a lot of acoustic glare in the bathroom, but this isn't the speakers' fault.) The AP525 seem like an even match for my DT Mythos Two's down to about 80 Hz. Then the AP525's take over. - Paul Hite
