Polk Audio Atrium 5
The Polk Audio Atrium 5 speakers are available for $325 a pair, offering a sleek and weatherproof design.
These speakers have a crisp, detailed, and surprisingly deep sound profile.
You’ll need an amplifier for these speakers, making them less convenient than using a Bluetooth speaker.
While plenty of folks use portable Bluetooth speakers for their outdoor listening needs, they’re not the most practical choice if you’re setting up an outdoor environment at your home and want something more permanent.
With the weather getting warmer, now is the time to invest in an outdoor speaker system. If you’re willing to go with a permanent solution, the Polk Audio Atrium 5 speakers are worth considering.
The speakers are designed for those building a system rather than those who want something quick and easy. They require an amplifier to work, and connect to that amplifier through good ol’ fashioned speaker wire — like most audiophile speakers. No wireless setup, and no power cables.
As someone who considers themselves an audiophile, though, I don’t mind the extra work at all. Here’s why my investment was worth it.Polk Atrium 5

I’m a big fan of colorful, vibrantly-colored tech, but if there’s one place I want something a little more subtle, it’s outside.
