Our Take On The NS-AW194
The Yamaha All-Weather range was designed to fulfil the diverse needs of Australians who love to entertain both indoors and outdoors with versatile mounting options. The NS-AW194 is a small twin driver, 2-Way outdoor speaker and is ideal where you have a small entertainment area and need something for just background music outside. At 85dB efficiency (well below average) you will need a high-quality 50 to 100 Watt RMS per channel amplifier, not so much for power as the NS-AW194's only handle an absolute maximum of 80 Watts RMS, but rather to minimise amplifier distortion and help prevent them being 'cooked'. They come with push-on, spring-loaded speaker wire connectors which will accept decent cable. Our recommendation would be QED 42 strand as it is reasonably priced, can be run over long distances (up to 15 metres) and is resistant to oxidisation.
