It says the speaker remains accessible but if its weatherproof I doubt music can be heard clearly. Is this true?

Hi,You can enjoy the music or make phone call when you ride bike, on this weatherproof case you can use earphone and there also have silicon plug for earphone hole. once you don't use earphone , then everybady can enjoy music and phone call when you make this. it's like Normal use a cell phone.

There is a little rubber plug for the 3.5 mm headphone jack. If you plug something in it may not be as weatherproof. You can't immerse it. I haven't been caught riding yet in heavy rain but it survives short showers fine.

On long rides I play music and hear it just fine. I do not use earbuds and play my music through the speaker. Actually I had to turn it down a few times because the other riders would comment on my music selection. (I tend to listen to hard rock & metal when I exercise.)

The few times I rode with it playing through the speaker and not an earpiece, I could hear the music fine when stopped and moving slowly, but once I pick up any speed the wind noise quickly drowns out the music. I can still hear it per say, but as could be expected it was muffled. For the most part I liked playing it like that because I could still hear the beat, without putting myself at risk by completely filling my ear with music while riding in slight traffic.

Its hard to say really, my hearing isn't the best and I ride a mtn bike fast on pavement (lots of tire noise), however the few times I've ridden w/o headphones and used the speaker I was able to hear the music although not loud and clear.I would definitely recommend using headphones anyways!

Absolutely. There is a cut out specifically for the speaker so sound is not blocked at all. Hope this helps!

I've only used it outdoors under a closed deck - and then only as a "instant" music speaker that I then take in when we're finished. I'm on an expert, but given the casing, etc, I'd say it's not an outdoor speaker as a regular or permanent fixture.

The speaker is water resistant not water proof. So the answer to the question would be no you can not fully submerge the speaker.

When listening to music I cannot hear anything from outside. The volume is somewhat low even when the phone or ipod volume is max the volume on the buds itself has to be set near high to get medium level hearing.

working per se ... yes ... but .... not waterproof neither dust proof, therefore not "sandproof". Also that is not a powerfull speaker and as you are going to be in a open space with the sound of water and probably some wind ... I would say you wont get the sound to be as loud as you want. Just as a comparison ... I use that speaker for some music in my room at night and for that I would say is perfect in terms of size and quality.cheers!!

It would be a little muffled I would think but I haven't tried it with a speaker, only with my iPhone. They have some cheap waterproof speakers you could look into.

Hello Friend i haven't used it outdoor but indoor the volume of the music is good is not as loud as the Bose but for the price you can't find other with this spec....

I haven't figured that one out yet, my speakers are new and I mounted mine under the eaves of my patio to keep them out of the weather. Supposedly they hold up well but I wouldn't recommend putting them directly in the path of bad weather and rain.

Waterproof implies you could submerge the speakers - you can't. I would prefer to describe them as "weatherproof". Just be sure to install them in a way which does not allow water to mass into the open end of the speaker component of the bullet. I've used mine in all kinds of weather and haven't had an issue with the bullets exposed on my FLHRC.. I would not consider the amp weatherproof at all - it needs to be in a weatherproof bag or shell...

Definitively ! You would probably need to lower the voice especially if you close the windows. I take it with me at the beach it's also somehow water resistant. It's really a great buy !

Not really. It would shield it from direct raindrops but the speaker and microphone are still open. The hands free jack and charging jack have rubber flaps, but are not sealed.

You will still be able to hear people around you speaking, although again it will be muffled. You might do better with a pair of music earpieces/headphones designed to cancel ambient noise.

These speakers are weatherproof IPX5. That means they can take rain, wind, salt etc... Waterproof means they can be submerged UNDER water. These wireless outdoor speakers cannot be submerged under water, but can take all the rain and wind and snow you can throw at them . We have many customers in cold rainy areas which have had these speakers running for many years with no problems . Reach out to a helpful AV Express engineer if you need further assistance.

This speaker isn't designed to be exposed to direct water contact; so I would buy some waterproof speakers made for an outdoor environment. Do a search for marine speakers you will find some at a reasonable price.

There is a setting for volume on the 'beeper'. Even with a wind blowing i can still hear it fine.
