When installing these outside, are they partially buried with just the top portion above the ground?

Yes, i buried mine about 1/2 to 2/3 into the ground. They sound great but after about 3 years the woofer in one of them went out. Haven't replaced it yet but I plan to.

Yes thats exactly how I buried mine. With just the top couple of inches above the ground. The actual speaker is inside the bottom portion. The top part has a cone just inside the cage. I suppose u could bury it all the way down without damaging it and it would be less of a tripping hazard.

Mine are also buried with about 2 1/2" above ground. I put them in my wife's flower beds where the daylillies hide them almost completely and they still sound great.

Yes - the top portion remains out of the ground with approximately 2/3-3/4 buried.

Mine are mounted under the edge of the roof line with the solar panel on top of the roof, so far (8 months) mine are working fine.

I think they lie flat. My wife didn't like them and they were never installed.

yes, they are thin hard plastic. but haven't had a problem with them. put bottom end in first they screw on the top so you don't have so much pressure when putting in the ground.

Yes. It appears that's what they were designed for. You wouldn't want to install these in unheated space above the sheetrock.

I believe they are there to dig into hard dirt or pavement to keep the unit from slipping. I have not checked to see if they are removable but some times I change the tires on soft ground and I wonder if I could bolt a piece of plywood on to keep the unit from sinking into the ground. Otherwise it works very well.

Yes, as long as you install them where ever you don't want them to land. Leave an empty space and they will land there. :-)

No, they do not. They are fixed in position. That area underneath, inside the box is open space.

I wouldn't recommend putting them in the in the dirt, would not hold up to direct moisture. They are meant to be recess mounted in decking, stair risers, etc.

I don't know for sure. But I would think so because I have an above ground that we put half in ground

Probably not as they need to be anchored to the ground tightly with a couple stakes at each end.

Nope...can sit topside or be installed under...comes with all hardware for both.

Yes, you can skip installing it. But there are pre-drilled holes, so they would be there. Probably they wouldn't be so visible, since there would be blankets over them, though.

I use them above ground in the open(subsoil is rock), just make sure the electrical wires are sealed and animals don't chew on them.

they are not enclosed.. i have installed in the attic as well and have had no problems.

I don't believe so, but that is where I installed mine. Mine is on my deck under cover. I installed them in April and so far so good. No problems

No they aren't. Once they are in the ground, I suggest leaving them as they are. We mow around the trampoline and then use the weed eater to get under the trampoline and carefully around where the anchors are. Though inconvenient when it comes to mowing, I have to say these are the best anchors out there. They are VERY secure and go way into the ground. The "screws" are big so they go pretty deep.
