Do the speakers need to be waterproof? Will they sit outside in the elements?
AC or battery powered?
I like the Sonos speakers and have them around my house.
Lots of reviews like https://www.pcmag.com/roundup/289429/the-best-wireless-speakers on the net.

I was probably going to do waterproof and battery powered.
The Sonos beam? That thing is $400, I'm not out there that much lol. Was thinking 100-150, MAYBE 200 if the quality is just that much better at 200.

I own this one:

It's got pretty good sound, inexpensive (even more so if you get it on Cyber Monday - which I did last year for $15), it's IPX7 water-rated, and it's really portable with the neoprene cover/carrying skin. It's rechargeable and works via. Bluetooth. They also make a more robust, higher-wattage version for about $50-$60. Don't be mistaken...they sound like portable speakers, not a Sonos or other high-end sound system, but for putting it right on the pool edge, getting splashed on and occasionally falling in the pool, mine has worked really well.

Try the ultimate ears mega boom speaker. We got one as a gift and it’s amazing for around the pool, and splash proof. You can’t throw it in the pool, but anything short of that and you’re good. It’s rechargeable which makes it handy with a nice long battery life. My wife and I hang ours on a Shepard’s hook by the spa and connect to our phones. At only ~$150 it’s decently priced too.

My son was gifted a UE roll 2. It’s amazing. It comes with its own floaty ring and can go in the pool. I would prefer it stay on the edge but he likes the novelty.

Have an EcoXGear waterproof speaker from Costco. Build well and has fallen in pool multiple times, survived 2 trips to Hawaii (still shaking out sand), and sounds great. I also have patio speakers that I rarely use. Battery powered portable units are just easier.
