Ground or do you have somewhere to hang them? Do you need a recover or amp too?


Ground. Wires are in the flower beds around my pool. Everything runs inside to my media cabinet in living room.

I’ve got a HEOS amp that I used at my last house to power my pool speakers, but I’m currently using my Denon for my media room. I’ve also got a Klipsch amp that powered my in wall sub that I’m not using currently.
I may be able to get a long enough cord to run to my media room to connect to my Denon to save buying a new receiver.

This house does have some speakers outside on the garage and outdoor kitchen but I can’t find where they go. I think it’s an old system.

You may want to consider some rock speakers, such as the Klipsch Rock Speaker They also have a grey/granite color.

Drive them using a Sonos AMP mounted in your media cabinet. It's nice to have everything on one system, so you may consider concolidating to Sonos or another brand in the future. You can group any/all zones/speakers on any Sonos system using the app. So, you could have a Sonos soundbar on your TV and have that TV sound sent to every speaker inside & outside your house.

Another option is to use your Klipsch amp and put a Sonos Port or similar inline. The key is if you want all your home speakers consolidated into one app, Sonos seems to work well, even though the app takes some getting used to. And they update the app every so often, so maybe they will eventually get it more user-friendly. Once you use the app for a day or two, it's fairly easy.

I’m down for anything. Right now I have several Klipsch 3’s around the house, Klipsch sound bar living room, Klipsch sound bar bedroom.

I wouldn’t mind keeping my media room separate on its own system then doing something for the outdoor kitchen, pool, and rest of house.
