How to enhance your outdoor entertaining and relaxation – Part 1 Music
Stake and Sub
Hearing your favorite artists while outdoors adds luxury and style to your home. When it comes to music in the yard, there are numerous options that deliver wonderful fidelity unobtrusively. We are enamored with a new generation of speakers that perform wonderfully and for most backyards, even the largest areas, a set of small stake-mounted speakers and a subwoofer are all you’ll need. We feature several different performance levels, from quite good to concert grade. Yes… even us experienced audiophiles are astonished at how good the best of these sound.
Rock and Roll
A brilliant solution to outdoor sound are rock speakers. No, they aren’t limited to only playing Aerosmith, nor are they constructed from stone. But they do look like garden stones and they certainly do sound great on all types of music. Inside their sealed, mineral-filled enclosures are a woofer with dual voice coils and a pair of tweeters that ensure great stereo performance even if you only use one. The outsides are faux-stone finished provide protection from harsh weather elements that will blend into the surrounding landscape.
The Hang
The traditional outdoor speakers we’ve all seen hanging from eaves above patio doors or on the walls of the back of a home are still an excellent choice. These follow the design of bookshelf speakers but with polymer cabinets and weatherproof drivers. They typically mount on a ‘C’ shaped bracket and are easily removed if needed.
It’s not uncommon to have a mix of speaker types to cover a variety of backyard needs to get the coverage you desire. Many one these are bundled as systems, with matching amplifiers and subwoofers. It’s always better to have more smaller speakers specific to an area, then try to blast out from a single speaker where the sound is loud nearby and quiet further away. We have tested every major brand and know what works best. See the close-up selections below and contact us for a free at-home consultation to discuss the possibilities at 561-998-0888.
