Are these speakers truly water-/weatherproof? I will be mounting mine outdoors and exposed to the elements.

I've had mine exposed for three years now with no problem. I bring them in for the winter however.

Yes they will unless your wave is wireless, they are excellent speakers for outside haven't had any problems

In addition, they are obviously not really outdoor speakers..so be careful to not leave them in the rain..But they pack enough punch for a good time outdoors..

no they are not waterproof, no idea on any brand since these are electronic units. I cannot even recommend one.

My understanding they are Not weatherproof. I would not use them outside. But I would recommend them for inside.

The manufacturer ships different grills for indoor or outdoor use. From my long history with these and related model of speakers, I'd advise keeping them pitched downward and in a way that avoids direct spraying of rain, sprinklers, etc.

Yes you can use them outside. In fact they sound better outdoors since that's what they are designed for. While they can take the weather you should use commen sense and try to protect them from the elements as best as you can so they last for many years. They are priced per speaker not as a pair. So it's one speaker per box if that helps.

I mounted mine under the room ledge and they sound great. I mounted them vertically and the bass reflects off the overhang. Great outdoor speakers with really good sound. I have one each on the corners and 2 round ceiling speakers centered on the lanai. They work great together

Don't think so..they were bought for inside auto installation not on a boat so probably not as moisture resistant as "Marine Speakers" would be. Would probably work in marine installation for a while, but not long.

I would say so. They are great speakers. I had a set for over 10 years, outside in FL, IL, then AZ. When one finally went, I replaced them with the same set. I have them in my yard now.

I don't believe these speakers were designed for outdoor use. Admitted you stated the patio was covered, but being subjected to temperature and humidity variances would make me concerned about it. Hope this helps you.

I would say yes as long as they are semi protected from the water. They aren't actually marine speakers but they can handle some water from personal experience haha. They handle heat and elements well. Good sound quality.

They will be fine in a wet environment. Mine have weathered countless heavy thunderstorms and strong winds with no problems. Highly recommend them.

Yes, I hung mine from my rafters under my covered deck outside. Loveeeeeeee these speakers!

I actually don't know the answer to your question. You will need to have a strong amplifier to drive these speakers outdoors with lots of pool activity, noise, and splashing. Mine do well, but I have them mounted on a wall underneath a patio cover near a pool. The rain will never get on them however I live in a humid area with plenty of moisture. I have heard of people mounting these on party barges. I imagine that on a boat they are bound to get wet from rain, etc.

Yes. They are water proof so they are equal to or better than a similar car speaker. We install them in outdoor applications.
