The little brother to our best selling outdoor speakers the AW6500
High-performance sound for wide-open spaces
Rock your next pool party with outdoor speakers from Definitive Technology. The AW5500 features the same high-quality speaker components as their indoor models, but it’s ready to stand up to the hardships of outdoor living. Buy a pair to place near the pool or on your deck — their non-resonant PolyStone enclosures are fully sealed and built for direct exposure to the elements. And the included bracket lets you rotate the speaker up to 360° for maximum flexibility.
Crystal-clear highs, distinct mids, and solid bass
The AW5500 combines a 1″ pure aluminum dome tweeter with a 5-1/2″ woofer for clear, accurate reproduction of voices and instruments. The woofer uses Definitive’s BDSS (Balanced Double Surround System) design for accurate response across a wide frequency range. A pressure-coupled racetrack-shaped radiator reinforces the output of the woofer, for overall bass that’s equivalent to that of an 8″ woofer. (Pretty cool for a compact outdoor speaker that’s sized to fit under a roof eave.) Some outdoor speakers are anemic at the low end — not this one.
