Sonance - SGS 8.1 SYSTEM - Garden Series 8.1-Ch. Outdoor Speaker System with In-Ground Subwoofer (8 - SATS, 1 - SUB, 1 - 2-150 AMP) - Dark Brown/Black (Each)

Product Overview

The Sonance SGS 8.1 outdoor speaker system, bundled here with the 2-150 amplifier, is a complete Garden Series distributed audio package built for commercial landscape installations and large residential grounds. Eight satellite speakers and a single in-ground subwoofer deliver even, balanced coverage across areas up to 3,500 square feet. Designed for integrators specifying outdoor audio, the system presents an 8-ohm load to the included two-channel amplifier and installs with a straightforward daisy-chain wiring topology. It is engineered to disappear into landscaping while reproducing full-range sound across the entire listening area.

Product Description

The Sonance SGS 8.1 outdoor speaker system addresses the core challenge of commercial landscape audio: delivering consistent volume and tonal balance without visible hardware or audible hot spots. The eight satellite speakers are designed to hide among plants and foliage, while the below-ground subwoofer mounts flush with a canopy concealed beneath ground cover. Because the complete satellite-and-subwoofer array presents a combined 8-ohm impedance, it runs cleanly off the supplied two-channel amplifier or a standard stereo receiver, simplifying outdoor audio system integration. The daisy-chain wiring configuration uses 14-gauge, 4-conductor cable for fast, repeatable installation across distributed runs. For larger venues, the system architecture expands to 16 satellites and 2 subwoofers on a single amplifier, giving integrators headroom to scale commercial outdoor deployments. This makes the package well suited to hospitality grounds, government and commercial outdoor spaces, and house of worship outdoor gathering areas. Built to handle extreme conditions, the components withstand year-round exposure. Integrators evaluating broader options can compare models in the Sonance commercial audio collection at Creation Networks. Note that speaker wire is sold separately.
