Looking for a white 8" stereo input outdoor speaker. Would've used this: [Link: proficientaudio.com]
but it's discontinued. Any other ideas?

Why an 8"?
Down firing outside, I would look at a 6" for tighter bass dispersion.
That's just my opinion.

Client has a pair of these: [Link: speakercraft.com] (white) mounted to some pilings on the left and center of a dock aiming toward yard/pool. Sounds great as is. Decided to add an area on the right side of the dock and want only a single speaker(aesthetic). I can't get another cable run from rack otherwise I'd just add one more of the same spkr and send it a mono signal from another amp. So I'm forced to run two pair in parallel - one pair existing and the second "pair" will be the stereo input spkr. The 6"TT model is my choice but client wants them to visually match in size. The other option is another pair instead of a single TT. I know the other options, just looking to see if I can find a similar looking TT spkr before I have to go another route.

??? Really? Doesn't that depend on the suspension and surround & magnet (motor) strength? I think by his going with an 8 he wants a little fuller bass.
