If I leave this speaker mounted outside on a covered porch is it weatherproof enough to handle some minor rain spray?

Yes, it is. I have left my speaker outside (accidentally) in snow and fairly heavy rain and it has not missed a beat.

I believe it would be. But I haven't used it out side yet. I bought it to use in the bathroom. Figured if it was built for the outside , it would handle the shower steam. But I can say that the enclosure for the Airport Express is well built. Also, important is the fact that it's built for the older model Airport extream. Which is shaped more rectangle. The newer AE are square and do not fit. If you are planing on not using the AE than you can use the Aux, but the back storage compartment will not close securely.

It's pretty sturdy.... but I don't know about rain.. generally any electronic will fry when wet.. the timer is pretty well covered and sealed... I would say it would probably be ok for outside as long as you put it somewhere it won't get too wet.

It is advertised as weatherproof. Mine is in my golf cart. The speakers and amp have been subject to indirect water from rain and drizzle, and I don't take any special precautions when I hose the cart out or give it an occasional thorough washing, including the amp.

In addition, they are obviously not really outdoor speakers..so be careful to not leave them in the rain..But they pack enough punch for a good time outdoors..

Yes. I have it outside but in a covered porch. However, if area is uncovered, the lid protects it from the rain

This is not an outdoor speaker. It is not make for any of the elements and I would not sugest that at all....it works great "inside" the home

I do not know but I doubt it. I expect that if the speaker were designed to be outdoor friendly on a permanent basis it would be advertised as such. I'm sure that for a few hours say for a party it would be fine.

I have a lot of sprinklers in my yard and as long as the speakers are not directly getting sprayed on they will be fine

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...

I am currently using this outside with a pair of Boston Acoustic outdoor speakers. In my application, the control is under a covered porch.

It is supposed to be indoor or outdoor. But I wonder, especially with the connector, if it's good to have it exposed to direct rain. We have ours mounted on a covered porch. I'd wrap the connector in electrical tape or heat-shrink tubing and mount it under the eaves.

I don't believe these speakers were designed for outdoor use. Admitted you stated the patio was covered, but being subjected to temperature and humidity variances would make me concerned about it. Hope this helps you.

It has a microphone, so I would not expose it to rain. It won't last and you will be disappointed.

This type of microphone does not care if it is outside, but if I were to put it outside, I would protect it from the elements (sun and rain) if possible. Mine came with shrink tubing and looks pretty weatherproof to me.

Unit isn't weather proof, if you mount outdoors, it does need to be potected from moisture.

I don't think it's waterproof and I would only use it in an area somewhat protected from rain (like on a porch).

These are NOT a sealed unit.....The rain would more than likely either be amplified to the point it would bother you or to a point it shut the sound off.I wouldn't use them in the rain
