Living in the Tampa area means enjoying beautiful weather most of the year, so making outdoor entertainment a part of your lifestyle is a no-brainer. Whether enjoying a casual barbecue, a pool party, or a quiet evening on the patio, an outdoor audio setup can add to each experience.

For that reason, we recommend homeowners invest in professionally installed high-quality outdoor speaker systems.

DIY Mistake #1: Poor Weatherproofing

Because Florida's climate is known for its humidity, sudden rain showers, and even hurricanes, weatherproofing is essential for any outdoor solution. Standard indoor speakers simply won't hold up to the electrical hazards these wet conditions cause.

High-quality outdoor speakers are specifically designed to endure whatever Mother Nature can toss at them, thanks to moisture, UV, and temperature-resistant materials. A professional installation team will ensure that the new system, including all necessary wiring and connections, is safely installed. The result is a reliable, safe audio system that will bring you years of entertainment possibilities.

DIY Mistake #2: Limited Compatibility With In-Home Solutions

Many homeowners who install their own speaker systems cannot integrate them with their indoor systems, leading to a siloed audio experience outdoors. An experienced technology expert like Acadian has the knowledge and expertise to link your new outdoor audio components to your existing AV system, giving you complete control of all audio zones from a single device. Use your smartphone, tablet, or a dedicated remote to effortlessly manage the volume and other settings for a property-wide listening experience.

DIY Mistake #3: Uneven Sound Distribution

Even for the techno-nerds, achieving even sound distribution outdoors can be tricky. Unlike indoor spaces, where walls and ceilings help contain and direct sound waves, outdoor areas are not containable in the same ways.

This can result in music being too loud in some areas while barely audible in others. An outdoor audio specialist will assess your property to determine where to strategically place speakers for optimal coverage and sound performance. Using acoustic mapping and sound field analysis, we can ensure that every corner of your property enjoys balanced, high-quality sound.

DIY Mistake #4: Fighting Ambient Sound

There’s no escaping ambient sounds while you’re outside, from traffic noise to wind rustling through trees. These noises can interfere with your listening experience and drown out the tunes of your favorite songs and soundtracks during movie nights. 

Powerful, clear audio is still possible thanks to directional speakers and sound barriers that help mitigate unwanted noise, so your music and TV audio remain the focal point of your backyard activities.

Why Should I Choose Professional Outdoor Audio?

While DIY installations might seem tempting, teams like Acadian bring a wealth of knowledge about optimal placement and integration techniques. We also have exclusive brand partnerships with industry-leading companies like Origin Acoustics to ensure your audio system performs at its best with limited hassle. We also handle all the technical aspects, from running cables to configuring network settings, saving you time and potential frustration.
