Experience an Unrivaled Outdoor Soundscape With the Right Tools 

For many, great outdoor audio, the kind that makes you stop and listen, may seem unachievable. While understandable, that belief is rooted in direct experiences with makeshift sound systems that have no business being outdoors. 

Ambient noise, such as a dog’s barking, cars driving by, and the wind blowing, can overwhelm audio not designed for this environment. Without surrounding walls to reflect it, outdoor audio can sound thin, lacking depth, range, and clarity. And bass frequencies can easily dissipate over open spaces. 

Today’s outdoor audio solutions change that. These systems overcome outdoor challenges and provide the balanced frequency and bass energy these settings require. 

Here, we’ll explore some of the top contenders in outdoor speakers.

Episode Speakers

One of the most incredible features of Episode speakers is the temperatures they can handle and still produce their signature crisp, natural sound. Are you ready? They can withstand temperatures ranging from -20°F to 185°F. You may wonder, unless you’re from the world's northern reaches or the hottest desert, who cares? 

Knowing your speakers can handle these extreme climates means they can handle anything. 

In an outdoor environment, high-quality speakers must distribute sound over a large area. Episode’s Satellite speakers provide wide-dispersion, resulting in an immersive soundfield heard everywhere. Add low distortion and flat frequency response, and you get incredible lifelike sound. Strategic placement ensures corner-to-corner coverage, with speakers that blend seamlessly into your landscape.

For a speaker that tucks away under your patio’s eave, their Surface Mount speakers deliver the same great sound. If you have an extensive outdoor area and want full coverage, their Omni-Directional speakers provide 360 degrees of pure high-fidelity.

You can also add the all-important bass with their in-ground and hardscape subwoofer options. 

James Loudspeaker

James Loudspeaker is world-renowned for high-performance, customizable speakers. From their two-inch aperture in-ceiling speakers to their upscale marine applications, they’re a brand focused on high-quality audio and discreet designs. 

To accomplish this in the great outdoors, they offer their line of All-Terrain Landscape speakers that feature a built-in crossover network. This technology allows them to maintain smooth frequency while playing at higher volumes. Are you seeking concert-quality sound? James Loudspeaker’s Outdoor, High-Output Tower Series may be what you’re looking for.

Sonance

As with all things Sonance, their outdoor speakers are designed to disappear. These speakers deliver a perfectly balanced soundscape with five different models for specific applications. Their Landscape series delivers maximum audio coverage while hiding among foliage.
