Bosch 2-way Outdoor Wall Mountable, Cabinet Mount Speaker - 90 W RMS - White
Experience robust outdoor audio with the Bosch 2-way 8-inch cabinet speaker, engineered for durable wall-mount installations and sold in pairs to ensure even coverage across outdoor spaces. This white outdoor speaker is designed to withstand the elements while delivering clear dialog, rich music, and reliable announcements for patios, decks, courtyards, and commercial areas. The combination of an 8-inch woofer and a dedicated high-frequency driver yields a balanced sound signature that remains clean and controlled at higher listening levels, making it a versatile choice for both residential and professional installations.
- Two-way 8-inch cabinet loudspeaker with a dedicated high-frequency driver and optimized crossover delivers smooth, natural highs and well-defined midrange for outdoor environments. The design minimizes distortion at elevated levels, so voice intelligibility and music details stay crisp even in lively settings.
- 90 W RMS power handling supports dependable performance in medium to large outdoor spaces. This enables clear background music, ambient sound, and effective public-address use without sacrificing dynamics or headroom during peak moments.
- Internal 60W 70/100-volt line transformer with 8 Ohm bypass provides flexible installation options. You can run multiple cabinets on a single amplifier in 70V/100V distributed networks or bypass the transformer for direct 8-ohm operation, simplifying system design for varied venues.
- IP54 weather-resistant enclosure with a rugged grille protects against dust and water spray, ensuring reliable operation in sun, rain, and coastal environments. The white finish blends into most architectural schemes while maintaining a professional exterior appearance for hotels, restaurants, schools, and outdoor venues.
- Packaged in pairs with an easy wall-mount system for fast, uniform installation and seamless stereo or distributed setups. The included mounting hardware supports secure attachment and flexible positioning to maximize coverage and minimize dead zones across outdoor seating areas.
The Bosch outdoor speaker is built for versatility and simplicity. Its two-way design enables better dialogue clarity for outdoor announcements and clearer music reproduction, delivering a playback experience that feels both intimate and expansive. The 8-inch driver combination is well-suited for background music in dining and lounge areas, yet capable of delivering assertive sound for events or sporting broadcasts when required. With the 70V/100V transformer option, installers can cascade several cabinets across longer runs and maintain consistent levels, a critical advantage for larger outdoor campuses, resort grounds, or multi-zone installations. When direct 8-ohm operation is preferred, the bypass option keeps the system straightforward and impedance-compatible with a wider range of amplifiers.
Durability is a cornerstone of Bosch’s design language. The IP54 rating means protection against limited dust ingress and water spray from any direction, making this speaker suitable for rain-soaked decks and misty mornings. The enclosure’s white coat is not only aesthetically pleasing but also designed to resist fading under UV exposure, helping the speaker retain its appearance over years of outdoor use. The mounting system is engineered for straightforward, tool-assisted installation, reducing installation time while ensuring the cabinet stays securely in place in wind and other environmental stressors.

How to Install Bosch 2-way Outdoor Speaker
- Plan the layout to achieve even coverage across your outdoor space. Consider sightlines, seating areas, and potential echo surfaces to maximize sound diffusion and minimize dead zones.
- Prepare the mounting surface. Use the provided wall-mount brackets and confirm the wall material can support the weight and wind load. If mounting on masonry, select appropriate anchors; for wood, ensure studs or solid backing are used.
- Attach the wall-mount brackets securely. Use the supplied hardware and tighten to a snug, vibration-free fit. Position the cabinets at a height and angle that optimize dispersion toward the listening area.
- Connect the amplifier or receiver. If you’re using a distributed 70V/100V system, tie the cabinet’s transformer input into the network according to your design and adjust the tap settings to achieve the desired output. If operating in 8-ohm mode, connect directly to the amplifier’s speaker output and verify impedance compatibility to prevent overdriving the amp.
- Seal cable entries and protect exterior terminations. Use weatherproof connectors and conduit as needed to preserve the IP54 rating. Route cables to minimize exposure and reduce the risk of damage from foot traffic, gardening tools, or lawn equipment.
- Test and tune. Power on at a low level and listen for balance across the listening area. Adjust the equalization, crossover settings, and placement if necessary to ensure consistent coverage and intelligibility throughout the venue.
