There is a lot of great outdoor audio equipment available. It was almost impossible, just a few years ago, to quality home theater component that were designed for outside use. I will be posting some of these items for your info! Here are some of the advantages and disadvantages of outdoor theater systems.
Advantages
Great Entertaining. Experience sights and sounds from DVDs, CDs, cable or satellite channels by the pool, on a patio, or by an outside bar or kitchen area. There’s no more missing the big game because it’s nice out. The possibilities are limited only by your imagination and the size of your outside space.
Disadvantages
Weather or Not. You don’t want bad weather to cancel that movie you’ve been planning to see. So if you’re in a colder or rainy climate, think twice about doing a home theater outdoors. They’re most practical in sunny climates, though usually as a second entertainment system.
Shades Required. Watching a flick while basking in the sun sounds great, until you turn on the display and you can’t see the picture because of the glare. You’ll need to place any outdoor video display in a shaded area. That means cabanas, covered patios or bar areas with overhangs. You can stay in the sun as long as the picture is shaded. Flat-panel screens and traditional direct-view TVs are commonly used because of their brightness. Front video projectors with screens require darker areas but can be great to view at night.
Think About Protection. For your electronic equipment, that is. You don’t want your expensive audio/video gear splashed by pool water, splattered with grease from the barbecue or overheating in the sun. House the electronics in a cool, dark area. Beneath a bar or in a closet might work, but best would be inside your house or a well-ventilated outbuilding. If you live on the coast, salt air presents even more dangers. Flat-panel and direct-view TVs tend to work best in outdoor environments. And any video projector should be light, portable and easy to set up, because you won’t want to leave it outside. Also make sure all your speakers are weatherproof, no matter where you live.
What About the Neighbors? It isn’t polite to share your sounds without their consent. Be a good neighbor by placing most of the audio speakers away from your house and pointing toward it, as opposed to hanging speakers on the exterior walls and blasting the neighborhood.
