The good news? You don’t need to settle for a tinny portable speaker that struggles to keep up. There are solutions designed to bring high-fidelity sound to your backyard, whether you’re looking for something portable or a more permanent setup. Let’s dive into the options that can transform your outdoor space into a true sound haven.

Portable or Permanent: Finding the Right Fit

When it comes to outdoor audio, the first decision is whether you want a portable solution or a more permanent installation. Both have their charm, and the choice depends on your lifestyle and needs.

Transform Your Backyard into a Sound Haven Portable or Permanent

For those who value flexibility, a portable Bluetooth speaker is the way to go. We recommend the Sonos Move 2, a powerhouse that combines convenience with exceptional sound quality. With its large battery, you can take it outside, place it on your table, and enjoy great sound for hours. It even comes with a cradle for easy charging, so it’s always ready when you need it. Whether you’re hosting a spontaneous barbecue or relaxing with a glass of wine, the Sonos Move 2 ensures your music is always within reach.

But what if you’re dreaming of a more permanent solution—something that becomes a seamless part of your backyard? That’s where weatherproof speakers come in. Brands like Sonance offer a wide range of outdoor speakers designed to withstand the elements, from scorching sun to pouring rain. These speakers can be paired with streaming amplifiers like the WiiM Pro or Bluesound PowerNode, creating a system that delivers hi-fi sound to your outdoor space. Whether you’re looking to fill a small patio or power an entire backyard for a party, a permanent setup ensures your music is always ready to shine.

Navigating the Elements with Confidence

Let’s be real—the weather can be unpredictable, especially in Australia. From intense heat to sudden rain, high humidity, and even salt spray if you live near the coast, your outdoor audio system needs to be tough. Add in UV exposure and other environmental challenges, and you’ll quickly realize that not just any speaker will do.

This is where quality matters. Choosing weather-resistant speakers is non-negotiable if you want your system to last. We’ve seen too many installations where cutting corners led to disaster—speakers that looked great at first but were “completely annihilated” after a short time outdoors. Don’t let that happen to you. Invest in speakers that can handle the elements, ensuring your sound haven remains a reality for years to come.

Sound Coverage: From Intimate to Epic

One of the most important considerations for your outdoor audio setup is sound coverage. Do you want music to fill a small area, like the table where you’re hosting a barbecue? Or are you dreaming of a system that can power your entire backyard for a party? The beauty of modern audio solutions is that you can tailor your setup to your needs.

For smaller spaces, a single speaker or a pair can create an intimate atmosphere, perfect for quiet evenings or small gatherings. But if you’re hosting larger events—think lively celebrations or a backyard party—a more robust system is the way to go. By strategically placing speakers around your backyard, you can ensure even sound distribution, so every guest enjoys the music, no matter where they are.

A Hidden Gem: Using What You Already Have

Here’s a little trick you might not have considered: if you already have an audio-visual receiver (AVR) for your home theater setup, you might be able to use it to power your outdoor speakers. Many AVRs have a “Zone 2” or “Zone 3” output that’s often unused. By connecting your outdoor speakers to this zone, you can drive independent music to your backyard without needing a separate system. Some AVRs even allow you to play different music in different zones, giving you ultimate flexibility.

Alternatively, if you have a stereo amplifier with an A+B output, you can use the B section to send audio to your outdoor speakers. While this setup might not allow for independent music selection, it’s a cost-effective way to extend your existing system to your backyard. It’s like having a secret weapon up your sleeve—using what you already own to create something extraordinary.

The Ultimate Luxury: Music That Moves You

At the end of the day, the goal is simple: to create an outdoor space where music enhances every moment. Whether you’re celebrating a milestone, hosting a barbecue, or simply enjoying a quiet evening under the stars, the right audio system can make all the difference. It’s about more than just sound—it’s about creating an experience that resonates with your soul.

So, are you ready to transform your backyard into your own personal playground of sound? The options are endless, from portable speakers that move with you to permanent systems that become a part of your home. At Len Wallis Audio, we’re here to guide you every step of the way.
