At ISE 2020, Sonance introduced a new, small-scale outdoor system called the Sonance Patio Series.
Designed for small outdoor spaces, the new Sonance Patio Series system comprises of four satellite speakers and one in-ground subwoofer to provide high-performance, even, balanced audio coverage.
To remain as hidden as possible in its natural surroundings, the speakers have landscape lighting-like housings and a textured brown finish.
Each satellite speaker has a 3.5-in / 89mm anodised aluminium cone driver and a Santoprene surround. The subwoofer feature has an eight inch / 203mm dual voice coil, polypropylene cone and Santoprene surround for high-quality output in intimate courtyard or patio settings.
For installs that require an expansion, integrators can use eight satellite speakers and two subwoofers with a Sonance SR 2-125 DSP amplifier. A single Patio Series System, using four satellite speakers and one subwoofer, can cover up to 100 square metres.
The announcement of the new outdoor speaker series comes as the highly popular Sonarray solution is about to exit from the Sonance line up.
“We continually challenge ourselves to deliver the best outdoor audio experience to our customers,” said Josh Blanken, Sonance’s product manager. “For years Sonarray has been a powerful solution for integrators looking to provide landscape audio systems for their customers at a high value price point.
“With Patio Series replacing Sonarray, integrators will now have the ability to provide class-leading performance and aesthetics, in much smaller spaces.”
