Transform Your Backyard with Audio Video Automation
A Guide to Integrated Outdoor Entertainment
Is this your ideal setup? You’re hosting friends on a warm Cincinnati evening. You tap your phone once, and your backyard springs to life: outdoor speakers fill the air with crystal-clear sound, landscape lights set the mood, your outdoor TV fires up for the game, and motorized shades adjust as the sun sets. This is backyard audio-video automation at work.
Most people throw together some basic outdoor gear and call it good. But when you properly integrate smart technology throughout your outdoor space, your Cincinnati backyard becomes the place everyone wants to be.

Outdoor Audio That Fills Every Corner
Quality outdoor audio starts with speakers designed to handle Cincinnati's changing seasons. Paradigm outdoor speakers deliver exceptional sound quality while standing up to everything from summer thunderstorms to winter freeze-thaw cycles. The key is strategic placement throughout your outdoor space.
Consider your backyard's zones: the main patio area needs different audio coverage than your pool area or garden spaces. With properly installed ceiling speakers, landscape speakers hidden in flower beds, and strategically placed wall-mounted units, you create an immersive soundscape that follows you wherever you go.
Then the magic happens when your outdoor audio integrates with your indoor systems through Control4 automation. Switch seamlessly from playing music indoors to continuing the same playlist outside, or create custom scenes that deliver the right audio experiences for different activities – upbeat music for pool parties, ambient sounds for dinner gatherings.
Outdoor TVs Bring the Entertainment Outside
4K outdoor displays handle Cincinnati's weather while delivering stunning picture quality that rivals your indoor TV. Proper placement considers both optimal viewing angles from your seating areas and protection from direct sunlight and precipitation.
Smart integration means your outdoor TV isn't just another device to manage. Through your Control4 system, you can access streaming services directly or switch inputs for different entertainment sources – all from the same interface that controls your audio and lighting.
Smart Lighting and Shading Set the Ambiance
Automated landscape lighting transforms your backyard as daylight fades. Pathway lights guide guests safely, accent lighting highlights your landscaping features, and color-changing LED systems create the perfect atmosphere for any occasion.
Motorized outdoor shades aren't just about blocking sun glare on your TV screen. They provide privacy when you want it, wind protection for comfortable dining, and automated operation that responds to the time of day, weather conditions, or your entertainment plans. When movie night begins, your shades close automatically while accent lighting dims to theater levels.
Climate Control and Comfort Features
Cincinnati's weather can be unpredictable, but automated climate control keeps your outdoor space comfortable year-round. Ceiling fans provide relief during hot summer days, while outdoor heaters extend your entertaining season well into fall and early spring.
Complete backyard automation brings together audio, video, lighting, climate control, and more into one seamless system that responds to your lifestyle. With Control4 integration, managing your outdoor entertainment space becomes as simple as pressing a single button.
