how do I make speakers waterproof?

Answer 1

clingfilm? coat them in lead???

Answer 2

The short answer is that you can't. The long answer is that it's such an involved process (you'd need to seal up every crack and hole, including adding a waterproof barrier in front of the speaker cones themselves) that it'd just be cheaper to let someone else do it for you. I've seen one instance of waterproof headphones that are designed to work with a waterproof iPod case (H2O Audio H1-9A1 Waterproof Headphones, usable in up to 10' of water, so sufficint for snorkelling, but not for scuba diving), and I've seen a pair of outdoor speakers that are designed to look vaguely rock-like (KLH GRN600 Simulated Rock Outdoor Speakers, probably not waterproof to the point where you'd be able to operate them underwater, but enough to handle rain).

Answer 3

Put the speakers in a bin liner and tie the top.
question is why do you need waterproof speakers ? indoors.

Answer 4

None last have used many kinds so get 1s with a warranty for yrs West Marine has a extended warranty.The wind pressure on the speakers will destroy the speakers.

Answer 5
