Built to Defy the Stresses of Florida’s Climate
Florida's outdoor living season never really ends, which means your sound system needs to work just as hard as you do when entertaining. But here's the reality most homeowners discover too late: those "outdoor-rated" speakers from big box stores? They're built for mild climates, not our salt air, unrelenting humidity, and daily afternoon storms. Within two seasons, you're dealing with corroded connections, crackling audio, and the frustrating realization that weather-resistant isn't the same as weather-proof. Coastal Source audio changes that equation entirely. Born in the Florida Keys and tested in some of the harshest coastal conditions on earth, these speakers don't just survive our climate—they're specifically designed to thrive in it. Oh, and they sound fantastic too.

Engineered to Defy the Elements
When Coastal Source originally set up shop in the Florida Keys, they weren't trying to make a statement—they were solving a problem. Standard outdoor audio equipment simply couldn't handle the relentless combination of salt spray, rain, and extreme heat that defines coastal Florida living. So they built their speakers from the ground up to "defy the elements," not just tolerate them.
The difference shows in every component. While other manufacturers coat indoor speakers with basic weather protection, Coastal Source designs each element specifically for permanent outdoor installation. Their marine-grade tinned wire is the same type found in luxury yachts, built to withstand moisture, heat, and the kind of environmental abuse that would destroy conventional wiring. Stainless steel hardware throughout means no rust streaks down your walls or corroded mounting points after a few hurricane seasons.
Quality You Can Hear and See
One of the premier reasons for Coastal Source's reliability is its patented Plug+Play cabling system. Connections are the number one cause of failure in outdoor audio systems, so Coastal Source eliminated the weak link entirely. Instead of cutting, splicing, and waterproofing wires in the field—where human error creeps in—their system uses airtight, watertight connectors that simply twist together. It's a foolproof installation that guarantees bulletproof performance.
This attention to detail extends to their complete speaker lineup. Bollard speakers feature large driver areas that deliver higher performance and efficiency than conventional outdoor speakers, with power capabilities up to 400 watts for serious audiophiles. Bullet speakers blend discreetly into landscape design while maintaining full-range performance. Rock speakers use hand-laid fiberglass enclosures with specialized Coastal Coated grills that resist everything Florida can throw at them. Each speaker type integrates seamlessly into a comprehensive system that can grow and adapt as your outdoor entertainment needs evolve.
Hi-Fi Sound That Rivals Indoor Systems
Outdoor environments have acoustic challenges that indoor spaces don’t, like the ability to bounce sound waves off walls and ceilings. You need high-quality speakers with enough power and clarity to deliver robust sound over a large area. Coastal Source delivers with speakers that deliver genuine hi-fi performance, whether you're playing background music during dinner or full party volume for larger gatherings.
Multiple speakers working in unison across your property means you achieve even coverage without blasting your neighbors. The sound stays clear, full, and balanced at any volume level, giving you that rare outdoor audio experience where the music enhances the moment instead of fighting against wind, pool pumps, or traffic noise.
Professional Design and Installation Make the Difference
Even the best speakers need proper system design to reach their full potential.
