We recently shared the incredible technology that’s making our outdoor areas extensions of our homes. These entertainment spaces offer the latest in outdoor audio and video, delivering quality and performance once unimaginable. 

Today, we’d like to focus on two of our partners that make this possible: Triad and Control4. Let’s explore these brands that bring easy-to-manage high-fidelity sound to the outdoors in homes throughout the Chesapeake, VA area.

It probably seems a little outlandish that we’re taking the time now to talk about the features of today’s smart outdoor entertainment systems. I mean, it’s February, right? It’s like seeing holiday decorations come out two to three months in advance. Or is it? 

Before we know it, March will soon be here, with April fast approaching. So, it's time to get ready for the beauty the upcoming seasons offer and take advantage of the incredible spring and summer months. And, of course, with our current supply chain upheavals, it’s always good to plan a little bit ahead, just in case. 

So, let's look at how today's outdoor entertainment systems are transforming homes in the Virginia Beach, VA area. 

The autumnal equinox is not quite here yet, and the summer is still high in the sky, but there is a distinct change in the air. If you listen closely, you can hear the opening fanfare of trumpets introducing Heavy Action, football’s unofficial theme song, filling the air. Whether you are a fan of the NFL, NCAA, PAC 12 or your local high school teams, it’s time to get back to the gridiron!

Here in Chesapeake, VA, we can enjoy the outdoors nearly year-round, perfect for enjoying all the games in the fresh air. While watching the game on an all-weather 4K ultra-high-definition monitor puts you in the action, the audio creates visceral excitement. Origin Acoustics outdoor audio speakers provide incredibly detailed sound throughout the yard of your smart home.

At WSC Home Audio Video, we think speakers made for the outdoors take your outdoor entertainment to the next level.

Our personal recommendations are outdoor speakers from Origin Acoustics and Triad because they’re designed to withstand the outdoor elements while giving you the best audio quality possible. Once you’ve picked speakers that meet your needs and personal preferences, it’s time to decide whether your outdoor entertainment setup will be your next DIY project, or you’ll partner with a professional.
