What are the best sounding outdoor speakers?


Hi, just checking to see if anyone has any experience with the best outdoor models from Niles, JBL, Infinity, Polk, Bose, or others? Setting aside cost and sensitivity/efficiency, which of these is likely to sound the best in an outdoor environment? I'd like some decent bass and highs in terms of extension, good open, clear midrange, and decent definition and transient response. I'm looking for outdoor speakers that play loud and clear. Thanks!

Three weeks ago I purchased a pair of Klipsch WA-650 outdoor speakers. Although they are pricey ($400) they do sound very good. I had an opportunity to demo them at my dealers against several of the brands named above. Although the others are good I preferred to spend the extra money on the sound produced by the Klipsch.
I bought a pair of Near A8s (400)based on this thread. Thanx these speaker sound great. Truly life like.
