Acoustic Audio 151B Indoor Outdoor 2 Way Speakers 600 Watt Black Pair

I confess that I have not actually compared these speakers to another pair of "higher end" ones. However, on their own, these speakers are surprisingly acceptable.First things first - the seller - The Deep Discount. They were fantastic! I ordered these speakers for standard shipping (which was free!) and received a tracking number 1 hour after placing the order! Talk about speedy!On arrival of speakers, my first impression after opening the the box was that they were extremely sturdy and well built, with fully sealed enclosures. They come with "universal" mounting brackets. In any case, they were easy to use and mount. I was concerned that the brackets would not hold the weight of these speakers, as the brackets do look flimsy, in comparison to these reasonably heavy speakers. However, I've had them mounted for little over 3 years now and they're fine! No issues whatsoever.I use the speakers indoors, so cannot comment on durability in the elements. So far, though, no issues with rusting, flaking or such like. The speakers sound "ok", to be fair. Bass is adequate - certainly not "deep" - they are 4" drivers, after all. Highs are not as crisp, as I'd prefer, but clear enough. To be honest, though, it could be my source that keeps them under performing (though I doubt it). I'm using a Russound CA4 controller, mainly playing radio or compressed music.For the money, though (these speakers are "cheap"), I'd highly recommend these speakers.

I decided to purchase a pair of these speakers 151B for my amplifier PYLE PTA44BT, and the volume is high enough, but the quality of the sound is bad. When I turned the volume up ,speakers sounded like they had something loose or broken inside. For the price is ok. I didn't like them, however; they have excellent design and they are assembled very well. They didn't work for my expectation.

Good balance of speaker size and box

Second set worked well. First set broken, the mounting nut inside the speaker. I have 4 of these speakers in my garage. The sound quality is good, I am pleased.

You get what you pay for.We have Polk ??? models currently ($100 or so on here) and I wanted to "expand the sound" in the backyard, but I didn't want to pay $100 to get the same speakers. Soooooo I found these 8ohms to match up and the backyard is more musical and surround soundy then it was. The sound is OK. Not quite as much boom as the Polks, but with the bass flowing over from those its totally acceptable and I am happy with my $35 investment (or whatever it was) to add these.The thing that I think is "you get what you pay for" is the cheap mounting thing. #1 you have to screw it in from the back to get the little ball/screw thing on the bracket to be stiff and stay in one spot and so if you are putting the speaker under an eave or somewhere you have to screw the speaker into the bracket before you screw the bracket into the wall, which was difficult. On both of mine I apparently overtightened the mounting bracket and now its kind of stripped because its cheap plastic? Anyway I got over that and the speaker just kind of leans down which is OK for my setup. The screw on the bracket is long. Which is fine if you could screw it as much as you wanted to get the speaker closer to the wall but the little metal insert you screw it into only lets you screw it in 1/2 an inch or so, maybe 3/4 and then the back is solid so you can't screw it in anymore. I guess that helps it be waterproof but then you are stuck with the rest of the screw on the outside??????? And one of them snapped off and went into the speaker so there goes that mounting hole. Luckily there is two spots to mount from, one on the back one on the bottom.Would I buy it again? Yes.Would I say its a cheap speaker set? Yes.I've only had it a couple weeks, we will see how it stands up longterm to the outdoor conditions (the Polks are going strong after 3 years)

These seemed pretty durable, but the sound was very thin and treble-heavy. I also think these do not deliver the power that they state. I know wattage isn't technically an indicator of volume and power, but .... 151watts should sound larger than these. Anything at better quality than, let's say, AM radio will leave you disappointed. One star earned for the easy return of these horrible, horrible speakers!

One speaker did not work. The one that worked had good sound.Sent back and reordered, as far as sound quality I would give them a 4 1/2 Stars. As far as the mounting hardware maybe one Star, the hardware would not hold the speaker in the position I wanted and one of the mounts broke, luckily I caught the speaker, also capture nut fell out inside the speaker so I had to take apart the speaker.I made my own mounting hardware to mount them on the wall.Again they sound good with my home theater system, no issue there.

These things are HEAVY, and the mounts cannot hold them up at an angle. A knob on the back tightens to hold the stem in place and it get to almost as tight as it needs to be, then pops back out so that didnt work too well. Ended up applying superglue to hold them. Also, the screw port that you mount it to on the speaker has a brass fitting and i screwed it in and hand tightened and the end poped off in the speaker so I had to pry it apart to get it out so it wouldnt rattle.But after I got them mounted, they sound pretty good. If you can manage the mounting difficulties, they should work for you.
