Yamaha NS-AW150 Outdoor Speakers - WhiteStrengths: Strong sound, easy installation, small footprint Weakness: none seen as of yet I have owned the Yamaha NS-150 Speakers for about one month. The speakers were very easy to install, came with all the parts necessary to do so, and have performed well in the outdoor location they were placed. The speakers have held up well in terrible weather conditions in the Northeast over the last month. The sound quality from these speakers is excellent and based upon my experience thus far, I would certainly recommend them to anyone looking for a quality outdoor speaker. 88% of readers found this review helpful.

Yamaha NSAW150 outdoor SpeakersStrengths: Very Good packaging and sounds great Weakness: Would be nice if the mounting bracket could swival horizontally as well as vertically. The package came with everything that you would ever need. It included (a) a mounting bracket that could be mounted on a flat surface (vert or horizontal)or to an electrical box with a standard threaded opening; (b) an adapter to enable speaker to stand upright on a flat surface; and (c) A safety wire to secure the speaker in case the mounting screws got loose. The Logo can be rotated for vert or horiz speaker placement. The speaker connections can accomodate banana plugs, spade connectors or bare wire. The speaker housing is well made. No complaints except that it would be really nice if the brackets could adjust in the horiz as well as vert plane.

Great soundStrengths: Sound quality Compact size Weakness: Lack of both horizontal and vertical adjustments These speakers sound great, especially for the price. The only complaint I have is that you can't tilt them in both directions. However, I was able to build an angled mount for them to meet my needs. I'd recommend these to friends in a heartbeat.

Great Speakers at Great PriceStrengths: Great Sound @ Great Price, Perfect Size, Easy to Install, Expected Durability Weakness: Somewhat limited positioning options on mounting brackets I purchased a pair of Yamaha outdoor speakers several years ago for my upper deck. Over the years of sun and rain, the speakers have help up well and still have a great sound. When refinishing our lower deck area, I did not hesitate to again select Yamaha speakers.

Excellent sound and priceStrengths: attractive design, nice depth of sound, easy to install, lightweight Weakness: can only swivel direction along one plane, didn't come with mounting screws I bought these speakers to replace some aging Bose 151s. I'm very pleased with the value and sound provided by these speakers. They are very attractive and were easy to install. I would definitely recommend this item. Did you find it helpful or unhelpful?

Great for the price!Strengths: Sound is very good for outdoor use. Price was very competitive. Weakness: If mounted on eve's, cannot swivel right to left. These speakers are an upgrade for a pair I bought 10 years ago. They have a much deeper sound. Now I can hear bass as opposed to just trebble. A great buy for the price.

Strengths: Good range of frequencies, good highs with enough bass
Weakness: grilles don't come off, no biggy. no speakerwire
I have these hooked to a sony 945 reciever, it's rated at 110 watts RMS. Of course I don't give it all it's got but you don't need to. They are extremely loud and sound excellent. I was very impressed for $65. I know how music should sound and you will not be disappointed in these.
One major advantage in this price range is the fact that they go down to 55hz. The majority of the ones I looked at were 80-90hz. I even saw this same model on other sites that say they r 80hz. The pair I got from Etronics is 55hz.
