Is the speaker waterproof or water resistant? There seems to be a disagreement.

There is a rating code on this product called IP. The IP code that was assigned to this product is IP 66. IP codes work that the two numbers are independent and dictate a different property of the product itself. From the first 6, it has been tested that this product is "Dust Tight" meaning that "No ingress of dust; complete protection against contact" will be a quality you should expect. From the second 6 the product has been tested against "Powerful water jets" meaning that something similar to a shower would have no damaging effect on this product. For a fully waterproof product the IP 67 rating would be given instead. There is a rating code on this product called IP. The IP code that was assigned to this product is IP 66.

Definitely Water resistant. To be water proof, the side opening would have to be threaded at least, but you only attach it. There's a link to a video in the answers showing a guy putting it inside the sink filled with water. I wouldn't do it.

I haven't put the speaker in water but my son has chewed it, dropped it and drooled all over it and it works just fine.

Mine fell in the pool. We took it out, shook it and it sounded perfect. I was impressed!

Well, just about nothing is considered "waterproof" anymore! Even watches in most cases are considered "water resistant" these days! That being said, I have already gotten mine wet and no problems.

The voice is very clear and has a volume control Button. As for waterproof I would have to say yes unless you drop it into water. I wear mine as a watch and hear it fine without raising my arm to my ear,

Water resistant is not the same as water proof. Common sense says not to submerge any electronics in water even if using a water-proof case. I've gotten mine wet from rain and mud but not dropped it in a toilet, for instance.

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!!

Not waterproof per say. I've run with it in the rain and haven't had any problems. Depends on if the water will get into the headphone jack opening at the top of the phone.

Hey Rick, sorry for the delay in responding... This is the BEST made speaker kid in my opinion. If you choose the right speaker this kit will or should at least be completely water tight! Great design!

Speaker is encased in rubber or hard plastic material. I see no problem with splashes.

I don't know about water proof. By they can withstand being outdoors. I've got mine in the front of my boat on the railing. They get splashed on lightly and rained on. They work and sound pretty good

It's not that great. It's definitely only water resistant. Mine stopped working after about a month and my only guess could be water

This is not water proof. There are holes for the speakers and the mike. There are covers for the charging port and ear phone jack. This will with water resistance. Installing this case on the phone, first install the two half shell cases that snap around the phone. Then wrap the rubber case around that. This will make it more shock resistant and more resistant to normal bumps. I have dropped mine many times with no issue.

I dont think that the speaker is water proofThe end of the radio is open to the rain.

Hi Jeannette. These speakers are designed for outdoor use and are water resistant, not water proof. When properly installed the speaker(s) can withstand light showers, or water and moisture contact, as well as direct sunlight.

It's water resistant. I've had more then enough encounters. Water proof "no". The button down the bottom for the charger also come out too....

Hello Tim, Thank you for your inquiry. The Ultra-Rugged Marine Grade Watterproof Bluetooth Speaker is able to be submerged. However, we do not recommend submerging the speaker. If the speaker is submerged deep enough the water pressure could allow water to get into the speaker. The speaker will be protected against splashes and rain. Sincerely, Accessory Genie Customer Service

Yes, a little,it is not as loud and the plastic film that covers the speaker vibrates and makes the speaker sound a little crappy.It is tolerable to me only because it is water proof .

Normally you can hear someone talking, but it's hard to understand what she saying unless you put it up to your ear. As to the waterproof question, I've never had it in water and I don't plan on testing it.

I can certify that they are water resistant. Not sure about water proof. They have been in my boat for 3 years and never failed. I put another pair in last year. I won't buy anything else. Great deal, great sound.
