Sound:
You can't go wrong with EV quality speakers. They cost a little more, but they are overbuilt in every respect - from the weather resistant design to the way they conservatively apply RMS power ratings, providing a level of durability and sound quality you can't find with lesser brands. I own a number of EV speakers (as well as both modern and vintage EV mics), including SX100+ PA speakers, the ZX1s and now the EVIDs for my outdoor patio environment.
I had my system professionally installed and the AV guys were blown away by the sound. You can spend less, but you won't get more.
Feature:
Best: Durability - sound quality.
Note: If you love bass, you will need the sub. While these put out better bass than most for their size, the physics of sound coming from dual 4" woofers equates to a 6"+ woofer - certainly good but isn't going to rattle your teeth. Mids and highs are sparkling, however, and overall dynamic range is as good as a high-end studio monitor (in fact, there's no reason these wouldn't work great for that purpose).
Ease of Use:
The mounting system is super strong and exceptionally versatile in positioning the speaker perfectly.
Quality:
You cannot beat EV speakers for quality and durability at the price, and you could spend a lot more just to match it.
Value:
If long term durability is in the equation, you will get years and years of use from EV speakers.
Manufacturer Support:
I blew one of the horns in my SX 100's - my fault -- and they replaced without an issue.
The Wow Factor:
Very cool look. Excellent sound. Weather resistant.
Overall:
They won't be lost and my Dobie will ensure they aren't stolen, but if it happened, I would replace them with EVIDs again. I would also purchase them from ZZ Sounds as they have always provided excellent pricing and great service.
