Patio tunes


Hi I'm in quest for building descent patio system and my budget is $500 total

I need wireless bt amp/streamer and speakers. The amp should be portable enough to move it to the outside when nice weather cook-outs going on. I'm not planning to keep amp outdoors, but would collect suggestions here as well as experiences.

The amp is ridiculous, I have it hooked up to a pair of Paradigm Reference Studio 20 speakers and the soundstage reminds me of that Martin Logan signature soundstage, very open. You can use it for streaming right from the app and you can also use it as an integrated amp with the RCA analog inputs. If you decide to use the sub out ARC will integrate the sub with speakers when you run the calibration. Another nice thing about ARC is Anthem routinely pushes out updates which are free unlike DIRAC which charges for them. 

At my last house, I installed a couple of Peavey speakers outside and ran the wires into the living room where my rack was. With banana plugs, it only took a couple seconds to plug them in.

All the best.

@russ69 Ditto the Marshal idea…I have one and it sounds amazing on my deck!  They make several sizes.  They look gorgeous too!

I have a Blu tooth Marshal medium size,  take it on camping trips, Get together s and hotel conventions,  Sounds really good, as long as the source is good it plays loud with good quality, separate bass and treble knobs to.
