#13 Polk Audio Atrium 5: $229.00 per pair Estimated Amazon eBay

Same family: the Polk Audio Atrium 4 (smaller outdoor, ranked higher, rated 2.6/5) and the Polk Audio Atrium 6 (larger outdoor, ranked higher, estimated 2.7/5).

Pros: A step up from the measured Atrium 4 in Polk’s all-weather outdoor range, with a 5” woofer and 0.75” tweeter in a weather-resistant cabinet with Polk’s Speed-Lock bracket for quick mounting. Rated to 60Hz with 90dB sensitivity, so it plays loud from a modest amplifier.

Cons: No independent measurements yet, so its tonal balance and directivity can’t be compared directly with measured speakers; the rating is estimated from the measured Atrium 4, which had an uneven tonal balance. Bass is limited outdoors without a wall or eave to reinforce it.
