Our Tips for Better Outdoor Audio 

Wouldn’t you love to play your favorite albums and playlists outdoors this spring and summer? But if you only own a portable speaker, you may find it’s not strong enough to project sound across the lawn. Most portable speakers’ audio quality is thin, lacking the musical details you can hear indoors. 

To play music loud enough outside, many homeowners crank the volume, hoping it will reach all ends of the yard. But anyone standing near the stereo will experience deafening sound, and the audio may not extend as far as you’d hoped. 

Luckily, there is another way. Weatherproof outdoor speakers can stay mounted outdoors all year long, so you can enjoy music outside anytime. Here’s how to get the best outdoor audio in your Fort Worth, TX, backyard. To learn more, contact Texadia Systems here.

1. Install Multiple Outdoor Speakers 

In a home theater, you can only create surround sound with multiple speakers. In the same vein, you can only bring immersive audio to the outdoors with a series of speakers. We use durable, fully weatherproof speakers that are completely sealed from water, debris, and extreme temperatures. So, no matter what the Texas weather forecast has in store, it won’t affect your outdoor audio system. 

Audio is difficult to play outside because without walls to bounce off of, sound waves fade into the air and sound faint. But if you install multiple speakers across the lawn, you’ll fill in audio gaps without needing to raise the volume. 

If you’re unsure about putting large loudspeakers in your yard, small satellite speakers can hide discreetly among plants and shrubbery for a less noticeable installation. 

2. Incorporate an Outdoor Subwoofer 

If you love the feeling of low bass notes, you might be disappointed by outdoor audio’s lack of low sound frequencies—especially the case with small-sized speakers. To add extra punch to outdoor audio, incorporate an outdoor subwoofer installed partially underground. The subwoofer will play with the rest of the system, delivering those rich, rumbling bass lines you love. 

3. Play Your Music in Mono

If your outdoor sound system is set to a stereo format, you may only hear one half of a song by the grill while the other half plays by the garden. You’ll miss out on half of the musical experience!

Instead, set your amplifier or adjust your audio software to mono. Mono delivers both left and right channels to all your speakers, so you won’t miss any musical elements. 

4. Enhance Audio Formats  

Music playback occasionally sounds uneven outdoors, with some parts sounding quieter than normal. We can fix this common issue by ‘normalizing’ the audio files. What’s ‘normalizing’? It’s the process of compressing audio levels to sound more balanced. We can help you optimize your downloaded music library for outdoor listening. If you prefer to stream, services like Tidal, Qobuz, Apple Music, and Deezer provide lossless audio formats which sound stronger outdoors.
