RSL Outsider II - ranked #6 of 13 Outdoor Speakers · Editor's rating 3.4/5

#6 RSL Outsider II: $300 per pair Discontinued eBay

Pros: Scores 2.93 on spinorama (6.07 with subwoofer) tested on Klippel NFS. Neutral listening window across the midrange and wider vertical coverage than typical 2-way budget competitors. Reaches 74.7Hz at -6dB with clean low-end transition. Measured bass extension of 87.9Hz (-3dB).

Cons: Modest sensitivity and limited dynamic ceiling at high listening levels outdoor. Cabinet and bracket feel somewhat lightweight, and the model has been discontinued by RSL.

How it compares: Just above it: Revel M55XC - $120 more, 1.5Hz lower bass extension (-3dB). Just below it: JBL Stage XD-5 - $200 more, 2Hz lower bass extension (-3dB).
