KLH SS-02 Indoor/Outdoor Speakers
Product Description
Amazon.com Review
Weatherproof speakers are a must if you want to enjoy music outdoors, on a boat, or even in a steamy bathroom. The venerable American firm of KLH (which has been building speakers since 1957) produces one of the best models of indoor-outdoor speakers we know of, the SS-02s.
The SS-02s are very compact, making them easy to place just about anywhere. Their black finish and slightly curved facade are quite attractive, and they even come packed with mounting brackets, screws, and speaker wires. And, unlike far too many designs, the SS-02s come with real five-way, gold-plated binding posts, not the cheap push terminals. The included wires, however, are very thin. The use of thicker speaker cable markedly improves the speakers' sound quality, especially with the long cable runs required for most outdoor setups.
We sampled the SS-02s in our main listening room as well as in a steamy bathroom. To our delight, they produce a balanced, crystalline midrange and were especially good with vocals. High frequencies sound both clear and extended. But, as you might expect from a pair of 4-inch woofers, the bass--while responsive and clean--isn't very extended or deep. On the other hand, the SS-02s play loudly, which is important for a speaker that will do duty in the great outdoors.
KLH's SS-02s offer good sound for a small speaker at an excellent price. That in itself makes them easy to recommend. The fact that you can enjoy them indoors or out, come rain or shine, makes them that much more desirable. --Wayne Garcia
