Try one of these.

I have used the EMS 880's for 3 years and find them excellent for the money.

One needs large woofers for any outdoor speaker.

p.s.: This advice is worth exactly what you paid for it...

May also want to look for some JBL S36AWs. Really smooth sound, but only go down to around 60hz. They're white and outdoor treated.
