Product Description
The Sonance Garden Series 8.1 System is a complete outdoor audio ecosystem that bridges the gap between performance and landscape aesthetics. This all-in-one package includes eight satellite speakers and a powerful 10-inch in-ground subwoofer, all driven by the advanced DSP 2-150 MKIII amplifier. Engineered to provide even, comfortable sound coverage in areas up to 3,500 square feet, this system eliminates "hot spots" and "dead zones," ensuring that every guest enjoys the same high-fidelity experience regardless of their position in the garden.
The eight satellite speakers feature 3.5-inch anodized aluminum woofers and 0.75-inch polyurethane dome tweeters, delivering sparkling highs and a natural midrange. These speakers are designed to be hidden among foliage or along pathways using the included ground stakes. Complementing the satellites is the dual voice coil in-ground subwoofer, which features a 10-inch polypropylene cone for deep, impactful bass that resonates through the landscape without being visually intrusive.
The heart of the system is the Sonamp DSP 2-150 MKIII amplifier. This high-efficiency Class-D amplifier is pre-loaded with SonARC (Sonance Advanced Room Correction) DSP presets specifically tuned for the Garden Series. These presets optimize the speakers' performance to account for the unique acoustic challenges of outdoor environments. With its robust construction and weather-resistant materials, the Garden Series is built to provide year-round entertainment in even the harshest outdoor conditions.
