I'm looking for a speaker for an outdoor event. I don't need to take over the soundscape, but attract attention. Will this do the trick?

If you're setting up on a 6' folding table and just want some background music for those at or within arms length from the table.....AND there's not already a lot of loud ambient noise, it'd prob be sufficient. If you're a DJ looking to get the party started and getting people dancing....then no. In fact I'm listening to mine now on my iPad in a large 25x50 greatroom and it sounds awesome. Good luck.

The speaker is definitely louder than a typical speaker setup on a laptop or tablet, but there is no volume control on it. That being said, the sound is very clear. Depending on how loud everything else may be, this might do the trick. I use mine with my tablet (iPad) in my backyard near the air conditioner, and I have no problems hearing everything.

This speaker has great sound for size... Super for patio or any enclosed room. If your event is a small one it should work.Do not think it could carry a large area.... Hope this helps

I don't know what kind of event you will be going to and how loud you need the music but I use the speaker everytime I grill outside and have to turn it down when my son and wife are outside. I have charged this thing once and still haven't charged it yet with using it at least 3 times a week. You will not be disappointed. It is small but yet so loud and clear. My friends can't believe how loud the speaker can get. Now remember, the volume on whatever device you are using controls the volume on the speaker. Hope my answer helps.

Its a pretty good speaker. Although, this is more a "Let's go party outside!" type of speaker. If you want good audio quality, go for something designed for acoustics not durability.

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

As long as it is not light outside and you need a different speaker source, the internal speakers are not very loud. It has a regular headphone jack, so finding speakers is simple. I am really happy with this product.

Depends on the uses you wish to make of the speakers. For a meal on a deck in the summer, for a get-together with friends in not too large a space, the speakers will be quite sufficient. I suppose your question really involves what the range for the sound would be outside. I have no idea about how far the sound would travel outside; the answer to that is beyond my expertise.

The speaker is extremely clear as long as you don't put the volume to the max....then it starts to distort. It's nowhere as loud as a TV though. I bring it outside for large dinner parties and it's loud enough for the crowd but I definately wouldn't compare it to a TV.

No, I would advise getting something more like a set of Peavy PA speakers. If it is outdoors, it doesn't matter even if the group is small. You will experience a lot of ambient, distracting noise. And it would be load enough to get full clarity. I hope this helps.

It will do ok, it does lack in the high end. Since this is a midrange speaker you will need to pair it up with a tweeter.

In my opinion this speaker is ideal for a backyard party. If you are at a beach where the sound will have to compete with ocean waves in a completely open space, this is not the best option. You may need to rent a full sized sound system. Consider powering it with a generator. That way you won't wonder if the music is loud or clear enough. After all, you do want the music to be great for your event. Happy wedding!

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 might make what your neighbor says audible with the headphones, however you won't get a strong enough signal for recording. It's also not really a parabolic mic - it's just a toy.

Without question, it should work for that. I used it at an outdoor function for the homeowners association and it was great. It has both a hand held mike and a ear bud type so it should be perfect for your application.

I use my speaker mainly outdoors. Sounds great anywhere. Never have exposed it to rain wind and sand, so dont know how it stands up elements. Great little speaker.

Sorry, but I don't really know. I plan to try mine for outdoor noises this summer in various locations. It probably will pick up not too distant noises. The times I have used it. It has been inside.

Ya, it'll work pretty much anywhere that there is enough sound to activate it. It's not necessarily bass activated, however lower end frequencies seem to drive it better. If the music is loud enough, it'll play nice. For outdoors, I would keep it as close to your speakers as reasonably possible.

If it's powered with the cable, I think so. Granted, you don't want the music to be overbearing at these events, so it should work fine. For a concert, on the other hand, definitely not. Although you would probably want to mount the speaker outdoors.

It all depends on the size of the venue, and if is it indoors or outdoors. I live on about 1 acre and when I aim it from a high point from the center of the property people can hear it well from about 100' away (in the direction it is aimed). I use it as a PA system (people can hear well about 100' away) and for dancing music for people within about 50'. I would not rely on it as the sole source of sound for an event as important as yours. You can always buy 2 and wire the 2nd to the 1st.
