This great pair of outdoor/bookshelf speakers seem to go on sale at Best Buy every 2 months. I bought these in March and the sound is really powerful when linked to an amp with sufficient power to drive these. I purchased a Bluetooth wireless amp from Amazon to go with these and the sound is great and the volume will make your ears ring (if you choose to turn the volume up that high. They sound great at normal volume, as well). No hum or static at high volumes.
BTW... It doesn't say it online, but they are 8-ohm speakers. I used 16 gauge copper speaker wire for 25' distance and it's fine, though 14 guage would probably be optimum. Also, if you use copper-clad aluminum wire, rather than pure copper wire, use a lower gauge wire (12 or 14 gauge). The connectors on the back of the speakers will accept bare wire or banana plugs. Do yourself a favor and use plugs. They're not expensive, are easy to put on and give a more secure connection.

This is the bluetooth amp that I bought to drive the speakers in this deal. You can save a few bucks getting used/like new from Amazon Warehouse. Sufficient power to drive these speakers. Good bluetooth connection, can accept a USB Flash Drive (will play what's on the flash drive sequentially, as it can't shuffle from a flash drive). It also has a subwoofer output jack on the back.
Definitely want to use straight banana plugs for this unit. I used 90-degree plugs for the speakers.Warning: If you choose to get a different Bluetooth amp than the one I posted, make sure it has similar or greater watts/channel. You won't get good performance from these speakers if you use an amp with only 50 watts/channel.

One more thing... The mounts that come with these speakers come with an optional piece that lets you attach the speaker mounts to the kind of weatherproof cover you can screw an outdoor lighting fixture into. It made things so much easier. It also allows you to easily rotate the speakers between horizontal and vertical positions, should you want to do so. These mounting plates are also dirt cheap. You just need to pick up the right size machine screws to attach them to the side of your house. I got the screws at Home Depot. Bring a plate to HD and get the thickest 2" screw that will fit in the hole. Here is the 2-pack of mounting plates:

"Speakers" should probably be in the title somewhere.

How do these compare with the JBL PD5322-95? Is this a similar outdoor speaker? The JBL also comes in white.

The JBL's are huge in comparison. I guess the real question is what your intended use is. If you're looking for outdoor speakers that you can hang on the outside of your house, go with the Yamahas. I can't imagine hanging the JBL's on a house. They weigh 170 lbs! JBL's Dimensions 991 x 673 x 706 mm(H x W x D in vertical orientation): (39.0 x 26.5 x 27.8 in)
Net Weight: 77 kg (170 lb)

This is another little amp that can be tucked away to keep it dry. We use this on a few outdoor speaker sets and they have worked great for a few years now.

Put an echo on each amp/speaker set and you can create speaker groups in alexa. Works great when we have people over and have music playing on the patio and pool.

These are the three way speakers. The two way are $50 and occasionally cheaper.
I own two pair, one pair has been outside for ten years and still going strong

The 150's were on sale for $50. The 350's go on sale for $75. If you ever see the 350's for $50, snap one up then post the deal.

How do these compare to the Polk Atrium Series. I was looking at the 6 series because they are really nice speakers with lots of bass for the outdoors. I've had my current pair for 6 years and it's time to replace them… thanks in advance!

Need to be sure you are right on statements like these!
Or it will be your fault someone burns out an amp that doesn't support 6-ohm....
It doesn't say it online, but they are 8-ohm speakers????
