This summer has been exceptionally hot across Canada, and chances are the temperatures won’t be cooling down from patio weather any time soon. So it seems like an opportune time to look at a few products that A/V installers can use to help their clients enjoy the back yards, cottages, and front decks.
Think of backyard entertaining and most of us still think of audio exclusively, like standard outdoor speakers or those shaped like rocks (“You can only play rock music on them, right?” the joke goes.) Or perhaps more cutting-edge wireless designs like the floor-standing SoundCast (distributed in Canada by Erikson Consumer) that comes in both a senior and smaller junior design, and communicates with a wireless receiver to play tunes from a connected iPod or other music player.
