Outdoor Living – Certainly Not What it Used to Be!

Remember when outdoor living was a nice wicker rocker on an outdoor porch; beautiful, but boring all the same. What could you do except stare at the garden greenery?

Since then, the term “outdoor living” has come a long way. Our lives have moved out of the house and onto the patio, the swimming pool, or the yard areas. Standards for outdoor living have evolved and homeowners now want to furnish their outdoor living areas just as comfortably and as attractively, as any of their indoor living areas. Decks, pools and gardens are where we dine, host parties, or intimate gatherings and everyone has fun (not just the kids). These outdoor living areas can be made more entertaining when they are equipped with state of the art electronics such as outdoor high definition TVs and audio equipment.

Imagine yourself sitting by the pool, watching the kids play while at the same time catching up on the latest headlines. Watch that great movie or take in the football game from the comfort of the pool, the patio, terrace or outdoor kitchen area. A few years ago this might have seemed like a scene right out of a sci-fi movie, now it is a reality.

AHT Residential offers innovative outdoor digital and audio equipment with fully automated remote control features designed exclusively for outdoor use.

Paradigm Rock Speakers – What Do They Offer?

Most people spend more time outdoors in the summer than at any other time of the year. This may be because you have projects in the garden and yard, go swimming or simply enjoy cooking and eating outdoors. Wouldn’t it be nice if you could integrate your indoor and outdoor living in a seamless way while receiving the same sound quality from your music or entertainment systems?  Why compromise sound quality when you are enjoying the outdoors? With the right equipment you don’t really have to compromise. There are great outdoor sound system options like the famous quality-made Paradigm speakers. www.paradigm.com

What’s Special about Paradigm Speakers

First, you don’t have to sacrifice quality for looks. Paradigm’s new Rock speakers blend in with any landscaping work you’ve done, especially because the outer Paradigm weather resistant casing is shaped like a rock –which essentially hides or blends the speakers within your landscape. The Rock is a speaker unit with a PolyGlass enclosure made to resemble a rock, except for the front stainless steel grill which exposes the interior drivers. This speaker unit measures about 12 inches high and about 11 inches wide. It weighs about 12 pounds so it can be moved, so long as you take the security spike into consideration, a specially made device to prevent theft.

Second, Paradigm offers high-performance single speakers with two channels of left or right sound. These come with two integrated tweeters that are offset at a 30-degree angle, and twin voice coil bass/midrange driver. If you aren’t a sound engineer, it simply means that Paradigm has implemented design technology that ensures a wide dispersion of sound, which is extremely important in outdoor areas. They are ideal for any outdoor area. Use a single speaker in a small area or multiple rock speakers for larger spaces.

Their products and services give you the great high fidelity you want and the exact positioning you need to offer the best outdoor sound quality available.
