Wireless Garden Speakers
The name rock speakers appropriately resemble the look and shape of naturally found granite rocks or boulders and are therefore alternately referred to as stone speakers. These are mostly built out of a blend of polyurethane and resin which lets them look like granite rocks with a slate gray finish or any other finish that tickles your fancy really. Rock speakers are built for outdoor use such as in gardens with the intention that they make their presence inconspicuous and blend smoothly with the natural or landscaped background.
Wireless rock speakers or even patio speakers find extensive application in theme parks, zoos and other outdoor areas like landscaped gardens and patios. The installation part of wireless speakers is pretty simple. Since these are wireless, the audio unit and the radio frequency transmitter is kept indoors. The wireless variety of rock speakers operate mostly on the 900MHz frequency. 900 MHz frequency has a short wavelength of one foot which produces a stronger signal and is good and for transmitting the sound waves through the walls of the house although this does not necessarily overcome the threat of signal interference as there are other domestic gadgets such as mobile phones, cordless telephones and microwave ovens which also operate on the same bandwidth.
The wireless rock speakers however require a source of power to run on which can be either AC power (a retractable power cord connected / plugged into an AC socket near the installed speaker unit) or a set of rechargeable batteries installed within the unit. The rechargeable batteries too would require a recharge if the wireless rock speakers are put to prolonged use. The power is required to fire the radio frequency receiver circuitry and the amplification circuit installed with the speaker shell and this does not make the wireless rock speakers entirely wireless. The average radius of the rock speaker from the RF transmitter should be in between 150 to 300 feet for most of the models available in the market.
A couple of thing that you need to make sure before you conclude your purchase is to make sure that the components and the speaker’s enclosure itself is water resistant and is sealed properly so as to protect them from the elements. It is also important that the speaker openings have rubber gaskets installed to make sure that water doesn’t get in them during the rains. Most rock speakers are capable of playing throughout any weather and if you go in for the larger models, you can even hear them over the noise of the rainfall.
Wireless speakers can also be purchased with volume controls, which is a very useful feature. This way your garden speakers or patio speakers can be individually adjusted for the proper sound volume. This is also a feature found in many other types of wireless outdoor speakers. Outdoor speakers can include more than just rock speaker system – it can also include ceiling speakers and wall speakers installed without the need for speaker wire.
