I had a waterproof speaker once, made to be used in the shower. I would only listen to morning radio while getting ready, so it saw real light duty. But even with that, I realized pretty quickly that these are just water resistant - not waterproof - and will die a wet death in short order. Even a plastic enclosure containing a driver with a polypropylene cone isn't happy in the humidity of a shower.

So I'm with Bill on this one. Forget the waterproof speakers, and leave the radio dry, on the shelf. Just turn it up a little bit more.
