Looking to have a couple speakers installed on my back porch that will connect to both my outdoor TV and to stream music.

I think I've narrowed it down to Klipsch AW650, Polk Atrium 8, or Definitive Technologies AW6500. Thoughts or other recommendations?

I can't speak for the others, but I have have had the AW650's for a couple of years, and they are really good speakers. Sound great and have a good full range.

I moved into a house that was wired up and the outdoor speakers were definitely put there a few years before I moved in and you know what? They make loud noises and I love them.

Long way of saying don't sweat it or overthink it.

My Polk Atriums are going on 10 years old and still sound as good the day I bought them

Mine are mounted under the eves of the house, have been through hurricanes, freezes, etc and are still doing great

Same here. Polk Atrium 6’s have held up great.

I have had Klipsch on my back porch for a few years. I recently had my system redone and was talked into some higher priced installer brand. I regret it. The Klipsch are my favorite outdoor speakers, and I have had a few. So, instead of ditching them, I set up with a cheap class D amp for my outdoor TV and I end up using that system a good bit despite the 2 pairs of new speakers.

The Def tech sound real nice but aren’t very durable.
