Passive all-weather soundbars connect to an amplifier or compatible outdoor TV through speaker wire, using spring-loaded push terminals or an included multi-pin connector when supported. The amplifier supplies power and receives the audio signal from the AV system, while the soundbar mounts above or below the outdoor TV.

All-weather soundbars can mount above or below an outdoor TV, depending on the design and supported screen size. Built-in or flexible mounting systems help create a low-profile installation that fits neatly into an outdoor entertainment area.

All-weather soundbars use water-resistant, resilient exteriors and rust-resistant aluminum cabinets and grilles to help shield internal components from rain, humidity, dust, insects, and salt air. A temperature-dispersion system supports operation across changing hot and cold outdoor conditions, making these passive soundbars suited to permanent outdoor TV installations.

Select an all-weather soundbar whose listed TV size range includes your outdoor TV’s screen size, such as 32 to 43 inches, 43 to 65 inches, or 65 to 84 inches. Then confirm that the soundbar’s mounting method, connection type, and passive-speaker requirements fit the TV and audio system.
