Enjoy the Best Sports Time of the Year with an Outdoor Entertainment Area 

If you've got any sports fans in the family, you know fall is the best time of the year. It's when many leagues converge, keeping you close to all your favorite teams. Start the week watching the Chiefs on Monday night football, catch some midweek Champions League and Cardinals action, and see if St. Louis SC will win their first MLS title during the weekend. 

The only problem is this sports extravaganza often means staying cooped up inside to keep up with the games. But it doesn't have to be that way! With outdoor TVs, you simultaneously enjoy the fun and crisp Missouri fall weather. And you don't have to step too far from the grill if you host some friends for a pre-game tailgate. 

Below, we'll cover the best outdoor TV options for sports fans and the ideal setup for easy access to all your favorite leagues and tournaments.

THE SOUND ROOM HEATS UP THE ST. LOUIS WEBER GRILL RESTAURANT

Weber-grill-exterior-e1473884309748

If you haven’t made your way out to the new Weber Grill Restaurant at the St. Louis Galleria mall, plan a trip as soon as possible! And we’re not just saying this because we were a part of the building process, but because it is a truly unique and fun place to dine and improve your grilling skills! If you’re a lover of dining on outdoor patio, the Weber Grill Restaurant has a huge outdoor patio that is perfect for the warmer months.

Living in the Midwest, we are not strangers to the summer humidity, pop up storms and unpredictable winter weather. The Weber Grill Restaurant called in The Sound Room’s Electronic Systems Designer, Aaron Blake, to help create an outdoor digital display for the restaurant that could withstand the climate and create the ultimate entertainment experience.

Taking in account the location and climate, Aaron knew he would need advanced waterproofing and temperature resistant technology. After researching and testing, Aaron and the Weber Grill team landed on SunBriteTV’s for the patio and they were the perfect choice!

“The SunBriteTVs are located on the outdoor patio, which can be covered or uncovered, meaning that rain and snow weren’t that big of an issue for the install,” said Blake. “The real concern here was the Missouri humidity, and we knew the SunBrite TVs would be able to withstand even the most humid of days.”

The displays also have an audio reinforcement system on the bar that allows customers to choose between listening to music or watching television. The displays are bright and easy to see, even with the bright summer sun shining on the screen, you won’t miss a moment of your favorite show, which is something the Weber Grill customers can appreciate.

thumb-17

Spring and summer months mean warm and beautiful weather, relaxing on the patio, and enjoying nature. It also means the start of baseball season! You don’t have to sacrifice the weather or our beloved Cardinals, just bring the indoors-outdoor with an outdoor television. SunBrite TV’s are the only time-tested TVs in the world that are designed and built for permanent outdoor installation. They are completely weatherproof with superior brightness. Their durable screens can endure temperatures as hot as 122 degrees and as cold as -24 degrees Fahrenheit, allowing you to leave your television outside all year long!

We understand it can be a lot of work setting up an outdoor living area, but SunBrite and The Sound Room created a product to help ease the process. The SunBrite TV Wireless HD Transceiver can send full 1080p HD content wirelessly to televisions. That’s right, no cables! As long as your outdoor television is within 150 feet, you’ll be watching HDTV in no time.

One of our favorite parts of the spring and summer months are backyard BBQ’s. There’s nothing better than spending time with those you love, cold drink in your hand, and enjoying some delicious food while listening to some great music. We have a complete line of Sonance outdoor speakers that deliver crystal clear sound with a rustic design that allows them to blend into your outdoor space. Now you can listen to the game on KMOX or enjoy your favorite tunes outdoors.

If you aren’t sure what steps to take first in creating your outdoor area, we are here to help! Come talk to one of our Electronic System Designers who can help you transform your patio or deck into a relaxing outdoor oasis.

At The Sound Room, we do more than simply provide home theater solutions-we provide an experience! The Sound Room has a retail showroom located in Chesterfield. For more information, call The Sound Room at (636) 537-0404 or visit us online 24/7 at www.thesoundroom.com.
