Don't be restricted to your living room or den for rewarding hi-fi experiences. Enjoy every ounce of acoustic performance found in PSB's in-room speakers with the new compact, all-weather CS500 Universal/Outdoor speakers. It's time to add PSB's world-renowned "true-to-nature" sound quality to your outdoor living space.

Engineered and designed for open spaces, the CS500 will also add PSB's high performance sound to almost any space you can think of, from pool to patio to garage. The CS500's compact size will serve a wide range of applications, especially where space is tight.

"In terms of price-to-performance ratio, you'll be hard pressed to do better," reports Sean Killebrew at HomeTheaterReview.com for May 7, 2014. "When it comes to sound quality, the PSBs should be on your short list… You simply cannot go wrong with this brand."

Durable, Weatherproof Construction

If a Canadian-based company like PSB knows one thing, it's how to handle extreme weather. The CS500's compact, weatherproof construction includes a UV-resistant polypropylene cabinet, aluminum grille, and rustproof terminals with a rubber cover for added protection against the wrath of Mother Nature. The CS500's tough construction will also provide protection against the rigors of heavy-duty use.

Small and Flexible

Offering multiple mounting options for all outdoor and even commercial installations, the CS500's compact and versatile design allows you to fit the speaker in almost any nook and cranny. It is equipped with a unique dual-axis rotational mounting bracket system that allows for vertical or horizontal mounting, and either 90-degree or 170-degree rotation.

Real Sound

With unmatched, lifelike sound quality, the CS500's bass response will move you without compromising full range reproduction of your music. The CS500 further cements PSB Speakers reputation for building speakers that deliver real sound for real people.

PSB Speakers Warranty Information

"In terms of price-to-performance ratio, you'll be hard pressed to do better."

"If you have a decent amount of space with which to work in your outdoor area, a speaker budget of roughly $400 and discerning taste when it comes to sound quality, the PSBs should be on your short list. As I stated in the intro, you simply cannot go wrong with this brand."
