The magic of outdoor listening

I tend to keep one system I can pull outdoors when I am in the mood the freedom from room colorations is an amazing thing. Being outside listening to a great system playing wonderful music is magic. I have a bike race by my home and if the weather is nice many times I'm out jamming I have had large groups of cyclists stop 50 yards from my home to enjoy my music. Last year I has using a giant pair of RCA front horns with a full range in it this year going with a community leviathan system with radial. I pull out a tube amp when I jam outside. When I retire I plan on putting out a permanent outdoor horn system so it is ready to go when I am. Sitting still seated centered in a room all alone is enjoyable at times but also kind of tragic I am happy I have options. Maybe consider the outdoors as one of your listening spaces.

Basically adding 2 or 3 large bass drivers to the silo doors. I’d then take my old Valencias outdoors or maybe pickup some larger horns. A projector screen and it would be perfect for movie nights in the VA summer.

Rock speakers out back near woodline and gazebo. I would not say they compate in any way to a good indoor sound system, not even close. The room reinforces the sound.
