Outdoor audio has to survive weather while sounding good enough to matter — two goals that push toward different fixture styles depending on the space. Here's how we choose between them.
Outdoor audio zones are programmed into One Touch Living™ scenes alongside lighting, so "Evening" or "Entertaining" adjusts sound and light together rather than as separate remotes.
Quality weatherproof speakers, properly installed, last many years outdoors — the key is genuine outdoor-rated construction, not a standard speaker in a protected spot.
Yes — outdoor zones are typically controlled independently so pool, patio, and yard areas can each play different content or be turned off separately.
Not always, but it adds noticeably more depth for entertaining-focused spaces — for background music alone, quality landscape or in-ceiling speakers are often sufficient.
It depends on the space, but most yards use several zones of two to four speakers each rather than trying to cover the whole property from one location.
