Although not shaped like a typical speaker, omni speakers are very popular for lawns and gardens. A lot of customers like the way OSD Omni speakers blend into the background, and like all OSD outdoor speakers, the OS525 Omni can withstand all types of weather conditions including salt, water, pool chemicals and more. This popular compact omni pair provides 100W power and is well suited for medium-sized areas (300 –500sq ft).
What Is an Omni Speaker?
Popular with landscape professionals and audio contractors, Omni speakers provide true omni-directional 360° surround sound with no obstructions. If there are multiple people scattered in different areas, the sound is consistent, not mixed. This feature plus the durable nature of Omnis make it a popular speaker for theme parks, hotels, and resorts; however, Omnis are also quite common for residential use.
Should I burry my omni speakers to get better sound?
You don't have to bury your Omni speakers but it will enhance sound quality and here's why. The sound comes out of the "mushroom cap" on top of the speaker. When you bury the omni (a few inches above the grille), the sound has a surface to bounce off of--the ground acts like a tuned baffle!

Fantastic!!!!!!! We had an outdoor get together and used the speaker on the deck. Nice volume and superb sound!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am very pleased with this purchase and highly recommend this speaker for outdoor usage. - David
excellent before and after customer service. Very responive to e-mails prior to purchase and explained the installation of the product afterwards. I would recommend this seller. - Timothy
We have had 2 of these (probably a slightly older model) in our back yard around our pool since the summer of 1994. They are the BEST!!! I can't give these speakers a high enough star rating. They have lived through 3 deck overhauls and 14 lake-effect winters (we live near Syracuse NY) with absolutely no problems. We have only ever had to clean them out once or twice and replace the foam rings on each once. The sound quality is amazing even after all these years. The college students who live around us are impressed with the volume as well! - Mark & Beth
I just got 2 pair and they sound great. I hate to buy without hearing them , but what a great deal and fast service. - VCAT
I am VERY pleased with the outdoor speakers that I purchased.
Super fast delivery, good communication, and appears to be a quality
product. I would compare their sound to Bose speakers at 20% of the cost. - Jim
frequency response and clarity not NEARLY as good as previous ones purchased years ago.
Theses are much smaller with consequent smaller woofer etc.
price was good ...and is probably a reflection of the sound quality
Adequate unit...depending on sensitivity of listeners ear - retired MD
We bought 2 speakers (you need 2 for stereo sound) and the price was extraordinary. The shipping cost was a tad much, but whatever. The speakers arrived quickly and the visual quality was better than we expected. The sound is what pleased us the most. Great sound quality!!! Now we are keeping our fingers crossed that they last as long as other, more expensive, speakers we have on the property. I would recommend this company and this product. - Cheryl
I too have found these speakers to be of very good sound and quality. I bought a pair after buying a pair of rock speakers that should have been tin cans. Great speakers. I am even buying a pair for friends for a Christmas present. - Tom
Unbeliveable sound from these omni speakers, I was comparing with Bose freespace speakers, these speakers deliver very clean highs, strong bass and most important, lots of mid range music. - Morgan
Product line was first rate. Delivery was super fast. Highly satisfied with purchase. - Ed
I had bought both OM200 and OM100. The OM100 is 5.25" speaker, perfect for low volume playing. But I do like the OM200, clear with rich bass. - Andy
Sound is real good for back yard environment. Watch spacing or stereo speration can be a problem. Overall very fine for background sound while hanging around the gas fire pit or eating on the deck. - rich
Browsing the web site was easy. Product description were concise and informative. Delivery was quick. The product installed easily and so far performing as defined. - Roy
I HAD 2 OF THE OLD ORIGINAL OMNI 'PARAMOUNT' MODEL AS SEEN IN THE THEME PARKS IDENTICAL TO THESE. THOUGHT THEY WERE DISCONTINUED, BUT LUCKILY FOUND THESE THROUGH OUTDOORSPEAKERDEPOT. GREAT SPEAKERS FOR THE MONEY! - JC
4 speakers now fill my back yard/pool area with rich, full sound. Great speakers for the price. - Rogelio
these speakers offer quality sound and are almost invisible in my landscape - percy harris
It was easy to do business with this company. The speakers were even better than we envisioned and a good value for the price. - Rita I.
I have to say that I was very pleasantly surprised with how easy it was to do business with your company over the Internet. I found the speakers I wanted, your price was the best I found, I ordered them and they were delivered within a few days. It could not have been easier. You are the reason I love shopping on the Internet! - Barn
