Outdoor Audio Installation Tips

The listening environment of the outdoors is significantly different from what you would expect inside your home.  When you are within four walls, you have the benefit of free bass frequency response reinforcement from your walls.  The sound is contained in the room and perceived volume is greater.  Outside, the sound is free to roam and you have the added noise from traffic, animals, wind, weather, and even bugs!

Let Me Hear The Bass!

If you’ve ever been to an outdoor event where the sound system wasn’t properly installed, you probably noticed a very thin sound.  This is because bass frequencies are the first to dilute when you go outside.  A subwoofer or two along with main speakers that can also reproduce lower frequency sound are critical to the outdoor experience.

Number of Speakers Vs. Volume

If you are looking to cover a large area, there are two options.  First you can turn up your overall system volume.  This will cause you to have hot spots of very loud volume where the speakers are so that participants further away can hear.  The other option is to place more speakers throughout the location so that you can get a more consistent overall volume level.

Speaker Height

The higher the speakers (vertically) the more of an area they are going to cover.  This comes with a tradeoff though.  The higher the speakers is, the thinner the overall sound will be.  Proper planning can make sure that you can cover a wide enough area and get the great sound you are looking for.
