It it not something that you would mount outside permanently, but I am very happy wit my Bose Soundlink unit. It is small (10x5x2) and portable (rechargeable battery which I have found to last 6 - 8 hours) And it can really kick out some SPLs. I use mine in the back yard and in the garage all the time.



It is a discontinued model (I have not heard the current version, but it is much smaller in size) But you can still find used and refurbished units of this model on Amazon for under $200.

I can bring mine over if you want to give it a listen.
Remember, it's all about the music........
