Product Description
Nothing says "the great otudoors" like an electric version of Zeppelin's Thank You. Nothing says "summer party on in your backyard" like a Polk Atrium50 outdoor speaker. With hardware designed wholly of rust-proof stainless steel, brass, and aluminum (including the built-in mounting bracket), and a series of immersion and corrosion resistance qualifications, this outdoor speaker is ready to keep your backyard get-together rockin', come rain or shine. And who's in the band? How 'bout a 4.5" mid/woofer driver and a 0.75" tweeter delivering powerful, accurate, balanced high- and low-frequency audio reproduction?

 An Inconvenient Truth January 6, 2009
The product is not the problem - just dealing with the vendor. Any necessary returns are difficult. Shipping was inflated at $15 UPS, but it cost me $9.00 UPS to return. After a restocking fee of 20%, a $100 purchase cost $65. in just handling and shipping, and the vendor will re-sell the item. Futhermore it may take six weeks for them to credit the return?? MY ADVICE BUY LOCAL - where a return is handled as good will and much, much simplier.
 outdoor speakers December 20, 2008
Great sound, multiple mounting options. Not a stereophile, but they work for me. Enough to provide sound for a 12 x 24 deck without including the rest of the neighborhood.
 Nice Performers December 15, 2008
I like the sound from these speakers, however you may want to look at the less expensive Polk offerings if you just want to have them serve to provide background music on your patio.
Great outdoor speakers, awesome sound for the price! December 4, 2008
I bought 5 pairs of these for various outdoor areas around my rambling house; the sound is just terrific, no complaints, and I'm pretty picky. Clear and crisp, even at a high volume. The design is nice, simple, quality; great connectors, sturdy brackets; was easy to attach them and wiring was a breeze.
I have read comments from others that the grilles come off too easily...owning 10 of these speakers, not a single one has had this problem; they fit securely if you put them on properly, so I guess maybe they were careless in not pushing them in firmly enough? Anyhow, I haven't experienced any problems with them.
Other than the good reviews on performance, I selected these because I could paint them to match my house. I painted all 10 speakers an oregano (dull green) color, using satin finish spray paint, and they blend in great with my house color now, and don't stand out like they would if they were white or black, which is terrific. The painting is a bit of a pain in the butt, because of needing to take things apart to do a professional job, but it was worth the trouble; they look great.
Excellent speakers...somewhat directional November 26, 2008
Excellent speakers, a lot of quality for the price. They are quite directional, so you have to be aware of the listening positions when mounting. Able to handle robust sound level and a fair amount of bass boost.
