Guys I need a smallish speaker for my MacBook Pro (2012) to listen to movies (not music) when I am sitting on patio with the Eggs. I have been told lots of small speakers do not sync with movies. The MacBook is just not loud enough outside.
Do not want to spend a lot on this. Any ideas?

Take a look at the Sonos Play 1. Great speaker. Leave it on the patio for tunes, movies, etc.
It's pricier than the JBL, though .#1 LBGE December 2012 • #2 SBGE February 2013 • #3 Mini May 2013A happy BGE family in Houston, TX. -

So did you get out of car sales due to retirement or wanting to get your self respect back? MMBGE / Large BGE / XL BGE (Craigslist Find) / SF30x80 cabinet trailer - "Ol' Mortimer" / Outdoor kitchen in progress.

I’ve got both a Bose Soundlink and a Bose Micro. Use them on the patio often. Both are great for my purposes.

This is what I’d look at too. Best option all round.

I have three different speakers from this brand - better sound and more full bass than anything in this price range. Waterproof too. Apple sells this brand at the Apple store.

Just a just a thought, if you normally keep your laptop in the same place near your Egg, I might suggest a powered monitor speaker. They have excellent sound, priced right and you just plug a wire into your laptop and they work. No need to worry about WiFi or Bluetooth.Thank you,DarianGalveston Texas

Sonos is partnering with Sonance here very soon (available for preorders I believe) to provide outdoor rated speakers to couple with the new Sonos amp. Great option in my opinion to get outdoor audio coupled with whole home WiFi audio.
