These speakers have excellent sound! Though they are a tad expensive for outdoor rock speakers..I must say...they reproduce a broad range of music genres superbly! if you are looking for the best sounding outdoor speakers, regardless of price ( about $350 a pair delivered)...These are the ones to order! - Marco B..

Don't waste your time on other supposedly high end rocks--These are incredible! 2 = Rock Concert!! - Steve

I would recommend these speakers RS850 (HF15) to anyone thinking about purchasing a commensurate brand from Rockustics or Niles. In fact, these speakers sound much better outdoors than the smaller Rockustics at $770/pair did indoors. My neighbor and I installed 4 of these over the weekend in his back yard and trimmed out the install with volume controls for front and back sets. They are being driven by a Yamaha HTR-6050 receiver. Customer service was very professional and courteous and shipping was on time They look great and sound fantastic Sincerely, Michael - Michael

These speakers are *awesome*. - Magnus

Wow it was not what I expected from these speakers and they blew me away, sound is phenomenal, extremly satisfied through the entire process of my order. - Daniel Perez

I recieved my HF-15 speakers just in time for the Memorial Day weekend. The entire pool area is flooded with crystal clear sound. I highly recommend these speakers for their fantastic sound, quality and great price. - Howard from Georgia

It was great to talk to a live knowledgeable person each time I called to place an order or ask a technical question. I am very satisfied with my 4 pairs of outdoor speakers. I do not normally purchase online and I would recommend Outdoor Speaker Depot to anyone interested in setting up outdoor speakers. They sound awesome at a very reasonable price. Tom M. - Tom

These speakers are unbelievable! They are far better than I had expected. They sound as good or better than my indoor speakers and they have far more volume potential outside near our pool than I will ever use...and we have a large back yard! Thanks for great speakers at a super price! Bryan - Bryan

unbelievable priceing going to start buying hf-15 to install in all jobs - protech

After considerable research, I stumbled on OutdoorSpeaker Depot--I had been considering Rockustics, Niles, and SpeakerCraft rock speakers for my large backyard. The area is filled by a large pool and a large (noisy) rock waterfall. I decided on the HF 15s (1 pair to start). The cost was too cheap, but customer reviews were great! I got the speakers in double boxed shipping boxes (cheap freight), and installed each speaker beside one side of the waterfalls. I used 12 ga. outdoor direct burial low voltage cable, and connected them to an Insignia 5.1 theater reciever (100 watts per channel). The feeling of being way over satisfied immediately came over me when the speakers came alive! No distortion, excellent highs and booming bass, and the louder I played them, the better they sounded! At 1/4 volume-you can hear the high fidelity of these babies 100 yards in front of my house!! I highly recommend the website, xlnt cust service, fast and inexpensive shipping, and amazing s! ound for a VERY inexpensive cost. I will be ordering another pair so that everyone in my area can enjoy these outstanding speakers!--Thanks again for an incredible product. - Steve

great overall service and we love the speakers! - Donald

I am so happy that I spent my money on the RS850 rock speakers. I live in Pennsylvania and the speakers arrived in the time promised in double boxes. I spent so much time worrying about what rock speakers to buy and I was so apprehensive about my choice. As soon as I hooked them up, I knew all my worry was for nothing! Those of you out there that are on the fence, jump over it. You won't regret your purchase. I am very pleased with the sound. These speakers have great bass as well as fantastic high end. Thanks OSD for a great product. - Frank

Just got my speakers last night and immediately connected them to my 150 W per channel receiver...the sound was incredible! My family and I couldn't believe such powerful, clear sound from these speakers. I purchased 2 pair to go around our pool and I couldn't be happier. Thanks so much for the great service and quick shipping! - Anonymous

Great Speakers, work well. Still awaiting for that volume control as soon as we received it and installed I will let you also know about it. Thanks - Dinia

I was initially disappointed when I called the 800 number to attempt to place my order and was told that all orders needed to be placed on line, Much to my delight the on line experience was flawless. Immediate confirmation of my order shortly follwed by shpping status soon to be followed by the delivery. The speakers are wonderful and are extremely clear and powerful (300 watt). I highly recommend this company and their products. George Noland - George

I just connected a pair of the HF15s in my backyard. I'm still landscaping so they're not officially installed, but after a ton of research and reading the reviews here, I just couldn't wait to take em out for a spin. To get a good sense of how they'd sound for different genres, I played some Coltrane, Jill Scott, Pat Metheny, Soundgarden, and Mos Def. Everything sounded AWESOME! I was I used to lug my floor-standing Sony tower speakers outside whenever I was grilling, working or having a cigar. Well these sound even better and of course, the convenience of permanent outdoor speakers is priceless. Though the look wasn't as important to me as the sound, I couldn't be happier with that aspect as well. I am building a koi pond with lots of moss rock, and these babies blend in perfectly! I can't wait to show em off when the outdoor party season starts this spring. I hope my neighbors like my taste in music. - Harv

Speakers sound better than I expected. Even without cranking the volume I get full sound. Very impressed. - Rick S. from Wildwood

The speakers arrived right on time. We hooked them up and they sound beautiful. I was impressed by the overall quality of the speaker. I kept telling my buddy, a complete audiophile freak, that they felt heavy. (very well constructed) He didnt agree before seeing them for himself but, when we got done hooking them up and listening, he asked for the link to the website to order a pair for himself. - Russel

with the exception of customer service, which i didnt use, the purchase was great. the speakers are fantastic! great sound! thanks - Richard

Great website - easy to navigate. I called them twice and they answer the phone with a live person ready to answer any questions. Thanks - oh and the speakers are fantastic. - Aaron

Super impressed with these speakers. As a VERY picky audiophile, I was skeptical at such a good price, but they have exceeded my expectations. Only thing that I'd love to have more of is bass, but don't get me wrong, they are not light on bass, I just love bass. A subwoofer stump would make this an outdoor dream for sure. Great quality, so far surviving colorado sun and wind and rain with zero issues. - Patio Matt

I just installed my HF-15 speakers, and all I can say is that these are the best sounding speakers I have ever owned. I recommend them to anyone looking for great sounding outdoor speakers - Roger

Great product, great price. Recommendation from salesperson was right on the money. The speakers do what they were expected to do, fill my large yard with sound. Great sound at that. - Raul

Originally I purchased a pair and was incredibly impressed. I've bought five more and have 7 around the pool, Emotiva 7 channel amp, denon receiver and the system rocks my pool area. On nice days I bring out my 15 inch powered sub and my outside system is more enjoyable than my home system. Rocks are outside 8 months of the year, going on 3 yrs and great condition still. Highly recommend them. - Anonymous

Wow Great speakers I returned My Bose 251 outdoor speakers for these.Great price alot for your money. Thanks! - ken depew

We installed four speakers for one client. Normally rock speakers sound very flat, but these HF15 have full detail sound like a pair of good quality floor standing speakers. Our client is very happy. - Marcos

I have install 5 in a private yard and the sound is great - R.Cadotte

This was a purchase made onsite at the retail location. A demo area was provided to listen and see each speaker and compare. Shipment and delivery were not used in this case. I took them with me. They were very helpful in unpacking and helping me to get the two speakers into my car. The speakers sound great. thank you. - Michael

Excellent product. Installed them last night and the sound is unbelievable. Can here the music clear as day approx. 60 feet from house in big open backyard.And easy to install. Fast delivery too. - Tracy
