Outdoor speaker replacemet

If you are an officer on the "sound" police force, I'm not interested in hearing how much you dislike outdoor speakers or any opinions on music choices either. As a matter of fact, I think I just read where someone is pulling a 10,000 lb 5er with a half ton over in the towing section and the weight police need backup. Run quickly and save them from themselves.

Now, has anyone replaced their outdoor speakers? I tried searching a few threads but it was mostly people complaining about their existence instead of offering the op actual solutions. The factory speakers are pretty much worthless so I'd like to replace with aftermarket if possible. I have no idea what size they are but I imagine they are standard travel trailer outdoor speakers. My guess is 5-6" round. Any real advice or suggestions on good quality replacements would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Well, first let me start - outside music is bad. Unless it's mine, then it's fine. (Hey, I rhymed!)

Anyway, if I were going to replace my speakers, I'd likely start looking at marine speakers for boats. I wouldn't think you're going to buy any good audiophile quality speakers that are rated for being outdoors (pure guess, though).

This may not be what you are looking for, but what the heck...

My 2013 Coachmen Mirada 35DL does not have an external stereo. I like to listen to some tunes while reading or whatever. I found a Bluetooth speaker that looks like a lantern than I can use outside. The sound is pretty good and the placement is pretty easy as well. I also use it on my patio.
