Our Outdoor Audio Installation Process 

1. Plan the System 

We start by assessing your outdoor area and determining the number of speakers you'll need. We consider factors like the size of your outdoor space, the layout, and any potential obstacles that may affect the sound quality. This will help determine the ideal speaker placement and the type of system that will work best for you.

2. Choose the Right Speakers

Next, we select speakers specifically designed for outdoor use that can withstand the elements. Speakers by brands like Sonance and Sonos feature UV protection, rust resistance, and waterproofing. We consider the speakers' power and sound dispersion capabilities to ensure they suit your outdoor area.

3. Position the Speakers

Once we have your speakers, we strategically position them around your lawn by calculating sound dispersion. With even sound coverage, you won’t have to crank the volume, keeping your neighbors happy. 

4. Connect the Speakers 

Depending on the type of system you choose, we’ll connect the speakers to an amplifier or a central audio hub that’s located indoors. From there, we’ll identify the shortest route possible to the speakers and will aim to hide cables underground, under plants, or alongside the house. Wiring is the trickiest part of outdoor audio installations, and why it’s best to consult the experts. 

5. Test and Fine-Tune

After connecting the speakers, we test the system to make sure everything is working correctly. We adjust the volume and sound settings to achieve the desired sound quality.
