I have two Sonance Mariner 61 outdoor speakers and two Pyle all weather speakers that I am planning on installing outside. I'd like to put two out back facing the garden so the kids can listen to music while weeding the garden, and the other two on the front porch under the aluminum awning so we can enjoy music during the warm weather months.

I'm thinking about purchasing one of these to power them, and carry it to each porch as needed. If it works out well, I may buy a second one. The kids already carry music around on either their iPod or loaded on a thumbdrive, and either can by played through this, it seems. I can even use the adapter I have and plug my phone to it through the RCA inputs, if needed.

Both porches are fairly well covered, and have spots that are usually dry, I think I could even keep them mounted without fear of damage. If I buy both, I think that I could put a shield up to keep the driving windswept rains from hitting them.

What do you guys think? Good idea? Total waste of money and time?
