Take a look at Dayton Audio speakers. Pretty decent for the price

here are some KLH home speakers with scuffs for $100 in Spokane never heard a set of their full range sets, so can't comment on sound which is subjective anyway do have a pair of their unpowered subs .

KLH Home Tower Speakers - electronics - by owner - sale - craigslist

Vintage KLH model T312 tower home audio speakers for sale. See pics for speaker specs. Speakers are in good shape. Though they are older and have various scuffs or scratches from being moved over...

spokane.craigslist.org

Pawn shops sometimes have decent deals on speakers when they get to many of them and will deal

Nothing against Dayton... I just built a new subwoofer with their 15"

Works surprisingly well outdoors and in large spaces, I use it on my UTV

I repurposed a Vizio Bluetooth TV sound bar speaker for use in my shop. Works great for streaming.

PA , automotive or marine speakers are pretty good for a shop. They hold up well to hot / cold / damp environments. I had a pair of audiophile quality speakers I built that sounded great . They hung on the wall in my shop, but a couple cold damp winters followed by hot summers warped the woofer cones to the point that the voice coils rubbed on the magnets and stopped working. newark.com has good prices on P.A speakers. Craigslist and Facebook marketplace are good place to look for used speakers.

I didn't see what you're powering them with. I have a decent little Kenwood (25 watts) and like the small KLH's like these (KLH 905b Speakers | eBay I have.

Some very good ideas listed here. Thank you! I will see what black friday brings. Maybe I can find a better deal if I wait just a few days.

This was just a dumb idea that crossed my brain housing group while out in the shop the other day, and noticed it was so quiet. Something as simple as a speaker or set of speakers, seems simple enough, but when realizing the options there are, overwhelming. Defiantly not one of those big priority things, but still one of those things that are kinda overlooked. Not sure what I will end up with, but will keep this thread updated. Thank you all again!

Any kind of system is better than none. I couldn't imagine a shop/garage without tunes, or fridge...

I DO NOT see the need for a TV, couch, or the like, as some "man caves" have become.
