Proficient® Protege Outdoor Speakers

The Proficient Protege Outdoor Speakers incorporate best-in-class sound by leveraging the array of award-winning technologies from the Nortek Control audio portfolio. At the same time, they’re uniquely value-priced to bring brilliant sound to more people and homes. Speaker packages are designed and priced specifically to satisfy today’s home builders, design centers and homeowners who seek great outdoor sound with a reasonable price and simplified installation.

Benefits include the ideal range of robust, all-weather speakers with a ported design for deeper, more powerful bass for an exceptional sound experience. The Proficient Protege Packages offer the right number of speakers for most homes, while reducing complexity of education and installation. Various speakers available include 5, 5, 6 ½ and 8-inch Stereo, 5 ¼ and 6 ½-inch Single Stereo, and 6 ½ and 8-inch Rock Speakers.

Another key design innovation is, unlike other landscape speakers that require expensive, high powered amps, these do not. They are designed for connection to any AV receiver and pump out great sound with full coverage for wide-open spaces. With the ported design and twin tweeter models, everything needed to make musical magic in any backyard is covered with premium sound for relaxing, to barbequing, to full-on entertainment.
