Navigating Where Your Sound Travels
When planning your outdoor audio setup, think about how sound travels. Many outdoor speakers today come with nifty technology to focus sound in specific directions, which helps keep your music contained. This way, you can turn up the volume when grilling burgers or lounging on the patio, and your neighbors will not even notice!
Take Sonance’s landscape speakers, for example. They blend into your garden while sending sound just where you want it. Enjoy your favorite playlist without worrying about it spilling into your neighbor’s yard.
A Simple Way to Manage Volume Control
One of the easiest ways to keep the peace is with good old-fashioned volume control. With a professional outdoor audio system, you have speakers spread throughout your outdoor areas. This makes it easier to get even sound without having to blast the volume on your speakers.
On top of that, a control system makes managing volume a breeze. With Control4, you can manage volume through voice commands, apps or touchpads. On top of that, set specific volume limits for outdoor sound. This keeps things cordial with your neighbors and helps you enjoy your outdoor audio consistently.
Reduce Noise With the Right Landscaping
There are also some practical landscaping tips that help contain sound within your property. Shrubs, planters, and other natural features help absorb sound and create a cozy listening space. Think about placing tall hedges near your property line. They not only look nice but also act as a buffer for noise. And if aesthetics matter to you (which they should!), you can find outdoor speakers designed to blend right in with nature. Paradigm offers discreet options that sound fantastic without obstructing your gorgeous garden view. It’s the best of both worlds!
Add Speakers Designed for Outdoor Use
The speakers you pick play a huge role in how your outdoor setup sounds. They’ll work better and let you hear clearly without going into high volumes. That’s why it’s worth investing in high-quality, weather-resistant systems that can handle the elements here in Cuyahoga Falls.
