Some people may know a lot about home audio – the indoor type – but when it comes to outdoor audio, they might not know where to start. Outdoor sound systems can be quite simple in some circumstances, but when you attempt to cover a large area, it’s not quite the same as, say, hooking up a receiver to two stereo speakers. 

So what should you know about outdoor audio for your Buckhead, GA, home that no one is telling you? We’re going to spill the beans below!

Now that spring is here, and summer is rapidly approaching, we are having the ideal weather in Hoover, AL, for pool parties, delicious cookouts, and cozy movie nights under the stars. To create the perfect backyard gathering, you need high-quality entertainment solutions, such as an outdoor sound system. However, when it comes down to making installations, many homeowners decide against it, as they are worried about bulky devices intruding into the peace and beauty of their landscape design. Luckily, there is another way! 

In this blog, we will explore a few amazing outdoor speakers that will boost the fun outside while keeping your spaces beautiful and inviting—take a look! 

Florida's humidity is legendary, but we get a respite as we enter the fall in late October and beyond. And while being outside around your Crestview-area home is great practically any time of the year, it's particularly nice with cooler fall temperatures and a break from high humidity. So what's better than a sunny, breezy, dry-ish day in the Florida Panhandle? That same day with great sound from an outdoor speaker system. Keep reading below to see how you can enhance your outdoor life with audio entertainment. 

Is good outdoor sound just a function of buying the right equipment? Yes and no. Quality speakers and amplifiers are always a key to superior sound, but outdoors you must take a few things under consideration. 

First, there are no walls and ceilings to reflect sound. That means you need more power to get satisfying sound levels outside – not to mention overcoming other ambient sounds. Second, you want good sound but don't want to attract the ire of your neighbors when you want to hear your music. And there's more. Here are four helpful tips for planning an outdoor sound system for your Miramar Beach, FL home. 

We love to discuss all the excellent choices that exist for outdoor entertainment and automation in this blog series. From outdoor TV to home theater (yes, home theater!) to outdoor lighting, we offer a dizzying array of products and solutions, many of which you can see in our Marietta showroom.

Most people start their journey into outdoor technology and entertainment with audio. Music and sound can add a whole new dimension to the enjoyment of your outdoor spaces. And who doesn't need more time outside these days? 

If you haven’t invested in an outdoor sound system for your Buckhead home yet, the Georgia fall is a perfect time. Just in case you need them, read on for five excuses to spur you to add outdoor audio as the capstone on your alfresco activity area. 

At GHT Group, we love outdoor living solutions. One of the best things about them is how they can make your outdoor space an extension of the rest of your home. But many people think outdoor entertainment, like audio, might just be used only for, well, entertaining, and may not want to make the investment if outdoor gatherings are an infrequent occurrence. We’re going to go outside the box a little here. Music and audio go quite well with a wide range of activities beyond throwing a party. Let’s explore some unusual things you can do with an outdoor audio system in your Birmingham home. Who knows, it might spark a whole new project to transform your outdoors!

You’ve decided this is the year you are going to invest in an outdoor audio system. Congratulations, you have made a great choice! At GHT Group, we have always thought that audio and video entertainment is not exclusively an indoor sport.

Outdoor sound, however, is not the same as indoor sound. There are a few things to contend with that you don't have to worry about inside. Indoors, it doesn't rain on your audio equipment. Most of the time, you don't have to worry about a clandestine wasp nest being built on the back of your speaker either. And finally, there are fewer walls and ceilings outside – more specifically, almost none.

We jest, but these are the things that make a distinct difference between an indoor and outdoor audio system for your Woodstock, GA home. Now, keep reading for three mistakes to avoid (hint, it's easy), and you'll be on your way to a killer sound system to make your outside spaces much more fun.

Summer is here in the Atlanta area.  While our winters are fairly mild, we all look forward to spending time outdoors.  In the South, you can beat the humid heat on a lazy Sunday by floating or frolicking in the pool.  Or perhaps you just like relaxing on a chaise, in the shade, with a good book and a sweet iced tea. 

But there’s one more thing you need to set the right mood.  Whether it’s to frolic or relax, music can set the tone.  And if you’re picky about audio, you don’t want to settle for just mediocre sound outdoors.  You want an outdoor sound system that can rock when you want to, but also play with nuance when you want background music. 

We can make that happen. Read on for more.

Do you like to be the master of your environment? Your house can be a quiet refuge from the world outside. And when you want to change the mood, you can put on some music to energize, unwind, or something in between.

What about outdoors? When you go outside, you no longer have complete control of sound. There might be a distant drone from the highway, lawnmowers, or pool pumps piercing the serenity of your comfortable patios and landscape. But you can have a secret weapon, and it's not noise-canceling headphones. An outdoor audio system can envelop your Cumming, GA home’s outside environs with full, rich sound that makes the barking dogs and other annoyances fade into the background.

Read on to see how an outdoor audio system makes everything in your backyard a memorable experience.

A couple of times, you may have seen us mention the "golden age of audio" on these pages. It's because we can't think of a time when there have been more choices in quality audio equipment. It's not only choice but incredible sound quality that can be had from a wide array of equipment.

When it comes to outdoor sound systems for your Atlanta-area home, the same holds true. There are so many excellent options in speakers, control systems, amplifiers, and more for outdoor sound that we can’t cover them all in one blog; we can only tell you about a few.

In this blog, we'll cover three types of outdoor speakers from three of our favorite brands in the hope of giving you some ideas on how to amp up your outdoor sound. Given the current environment where you may be spending extended time at home, why not consider spicing up the outdoor entertainment to make it a little more enjoyable?

Spring is here in the Atlanta area.  While our winters are fairly mild, we all look forward to spending time outdoors.  In the South, you can beat the humid heat on a lazy Sunday by floating or frolicking in the pool.  Or perhaps you just like relaxing on a chaise, in the shade, with a good book and a sweet iced tea. Think that sounds enjoyable? Just add music to elevate this experience to the mental retreat we all need now.

We originally wrote this popular blog article during a much more pleasant time, the summer of 2018, before anyone talked of this new coronavirus. The current COVID-19 pandemic, which has afflicted much of Northwest Georgia, casts a shadow over even this outdoor merriment. However, if we’ve learned anything these past few weeks, it’s how therapeutic our outdoor time can be after being cooped up indoors all day.

Whether you’re spending time chilling with pets and family on your patio or getting some exercise in your pool, everything feels more enjoyable when you add music. However, simply adding any speakers you find on Amazon Prime isn’t enough. You’ll need Atlanta’s premier AV installer to help you choose and install the best speakers for your patios, yards and pools.

Summertime is best spent with family and friends in the fresh air with food sizzling on the grill and your favorite tunes wafting through the air. Why not make your backyard the unofficial destination of the season? Today’s weatherproof technology means you can upgrade your Sandy Springs or Metro Atlanta property with an outdoor speaker system and outdoor TVs for cookouts, pool parties, and relaxing year-round; without worry of long-term damage from exposure to sunlight, heat or rain that our area is known for.

But before adding outdoor speakers and TVs to your home, it only makes sense you’ll want to hear and see the quality first. Many direct-to-consumer products claim to be high-quality, but you don’t know how it truly sounds until you experience the technology in real life.

At Georgia Home Theater’s showroom in Marietta, you can look, touch, hear and see our outdoor speaker and TV options before purchasing. To prepare for your visit, continue reading to explore the outdoor entertainment that is on display at Georgia Home Theater’s showrooms.
