Give Nature a Soundtrack with Outdoor Audio

We install plenty of home entertainment systems, most of which are for living rooms, basements, or bedrooms. But as much as I’m a big fan of sitting down indoors on a comfy couch to watch a movie, I do enjoy the outdoors just as much.

My mother hardly ever let us stay inside on a nice day. I grew up camping, playing roller hockey, and shooting baskets in the driveway with my friends… and most of the time, we brought our music along with us. I can even remember being hired to paint my neighbor’s fence one summer, and I couldn’t have done it without my walkman.

Music makes the outdoors more enjoyable. It’s not TV, where you have to direct your attention to it. Just like indoors, music can help set a mood for whatever you’re doing outdoors, either as background music, or cranking your favorite song during a summer barbeque.

And the best part about outdoor audio is that it has gotten so much better than the boom boxes we’ve all used before. And don’t even get me started on opening your windows and just pointing your house speakers towards the back yard… that never worked that well did it?

Today, outdoor audio can be installed just like it can be in your home… permanently. No more finding an outlet, no more rushing to bring in the radio when it rains, no more underpowered speakers that you can’t hear over the usual outdoor ambient noise.

Outdoor audio, installed properly, is always there, always ready, and doesn’t require moving equipment or remembering where you put your extension cord.

We install weatherproof speakers and volume controls that fit into your outdoor design or landscaping. We can hide equipment inside, where it won’t get damaged or stolen. We can install a standalone outdoor audio system, or in some cases, we may be able to run it off of your existing equipment.

Just like in your home entertainment system, you’ll be able to listen to satellite radio, CDs, iPods, whatever. We can even program a universal remote control that is completely waterproof, and floats in case you drop it in the pool!

Whether you’re sunbathing, doing yard work, shooting hoops, cooking on the grill, swimming, working on the car or just enjoying the sunset at the end of the day… let us help you add a soundtrack to the outdoors.

Oh, and if you enjoy TV, and the outdoors, we’ve got weatherproof TVs as well!

Give me a call at (847) 471-4420 if you’d like to set up an in-home (or in-yard!) consultation to see what would work best for you. Or drop me an email at keith@inspired-electronics.com. Or even visit our website at http://www.inspired-electronics.com/!

Our slogan “Your room is our inspiration” works just as well in the backyard “room”!

Thanks –
Keith
