QuestionWill the speakers survive through rain
Asked 5 years ago by Jay.
- Answer I bought a pair for my pool and they did not last a year outside, I sent them in for repair under warranty and still only got about six more months out of them. They were mounted on the deck and covered when not in use. They did sound great when they worked but for a outdoor speaker i would think they should last longer then a year.

QuestionThe video mentions that the white speakers can be painted. Has anyone tried this? What type of paint do you use?
Asked 4 years ago by Willie.
- Answer You may paint white versions of the AW5500 and AW6500 speakers to match your color scheme or to blend in with their surroundings. You will need: • A spray can of primer paint (Krylon Spray Primer #1318, or equivalent). • A spray can of the paint of your choice. Choose exterior grade paint if you plan to use the speakers outdoors. • A paperclip, awl or corkscrew (for removing the grille) [figure A]. • Masking tape. • Paint mask (not included) to cover parts that should not be painted. To make an easy paint mask use the grille as a template and cut a mask from heavy, nonporous craft paper.
