14 Portable Speakers That Will Outplay Your Pool Party

What good is a party playlist if you can’t actually hear the music? This summer, give your expertly crafted Spotify playlists the recognition they deserve with a punchy outdoor speaker. Unlike indoor speakers, these outdoor speakers are designed to carry sound in open-air spaces. They're also portable, so you can keep your music going strong no matter where you are —beachside, poolside, or grilling on the patio.

There’s no shortage of stellar speakers on the market—check out these 20 devices, for instance. All of them provide booming, high-quality audio—and some have cool extra perks like water resistance or extensive battery life— so your pool party playlists will never sound, well, watered down.
