Coastal Source

Outdoor Audio · Authorized Dealer

Coastal Source.Built for the weather,not against it.

Coastal Source is the only outdoor audio Daniel installs. Bronze enclosures (not plastic). Sealed marine-grade connectors (not corroding terminal blocks). Stainless hardware. Designed by audio engineers who grew up keeping sailboat stereos alive through Atlantic crossings.

Why Coastal Source

Outdoor audio that lasts a decade, not three summers.

  • 01

    Marine-grade hardware

    Bronze enclosures, stainless steel grilles, sealed connectors, fully grounded amplification chain. Built to the same standard a 30-foot sailboat's sound system survives a season of saltwater on.

  • 02

    Concealed shroud-mount

    In-ground subwoofers buried in the landscape. Bullet speakers tucked into garden beds + tree wells. Bollard-style speakers along walking paths. The audio is everywhere; the speakers are nearly invisible.

  • 03

    Whole-property zoning

    Pool deck on one zone. Outdoor kitchen on another. Pool-house gym on a third. Dock zone with its own playlist for boat parties. Each zone has its own volume, source, and EQ — controlled from the same app that runs the inside of the house.

  • 04

    10-year warranty

    Among the longest manufacturer warranties in audio, period. Reflects the fact that Coastal Source builds for actual outdoor longevity — not "outdoor-rated for three years before silicone fails."

Coastal Source pool deck install

Pool decks + patios

From conversation to dance-floor.

The classic zone. 4-6 bullet speakers in the landscape, an in-ground sub for the low end, amplification in the equipment closet — never outside. Music that fills the space at conversation volume; pushes to dance-floor SPL when a Saturday night calls for it.

Coastal Source landscape audio

Landscape audio

Music everywhere. Speakers nowhere.

Bullet speakers + bollards tucked through the planting beds, the walking paths, the firepit, the gazebo. The audio is omnidirectional and even — no hotspots, no dead zones. Whoever's walking the property hears music; from inside the house, the volume sounds the same in every corner of the yard.

Coastal Source multi-zone control

Multi-zone control

Pool, patio, dock — each its own.

Pool, patio, kitchen-grilling area, dock — each its own zone, each independently volumeable, each able to play its own source. From the Control4 app on the kitchen counter, or from the Coastal Source dedicated controller in the outdoor bar.

Concealed in-landscape speakers

Concealed in landscape

Six months in, guests stop asking.

The speakers are designed to disappear into the planting and the architecture. Bronze finish ages to a stable patina that reads like landscape hardware, not technology. Six months after the install, guests ask where the music is coming from — and that's the goal.

An investment that survives the seasons

Why Coastal Source still works at year ten.

  • Bronze enclosures.

    Aluminum oxidizes; plastic UV-degrades; galvanized steel corrodes through. Bronze develops a stable patina at year two and stops. Field-proven through twenty years of marine-grade installs.

  • Sealed connectors.

    Where most outdoor speakers fail first is the wire-to-speaker connection — moisture wicks up the wire, corrodes the terminals, and the speaker goes silent. Coastal Source uses sealed marine-grade connectors that exclude moisture for the life of the install.

  • Amplification stays indoors.

    The speakers go outside; the amplification stays in an equipment closet inside the house, climate-controlled. That's why the system survives — the part that's sensitive to the weather isn't the part exposed to it.

Best for

Where Coastal Source belongs.

01

Pool + landscape installs

Multi-zone outdoor audio with concealed speakers through the landscape. Average install: $15-35k for a typical pool + patio combination.

02

Lake of the Ozarks lake homes

Sustained humidity + storm exposure + heavy summer use — exactly Coastal Source's engineering target. Dock zones, pool, screen porch, and main-house outdoor entertaining. Average install: $25-55k.

03

Whole-estate landscape audio

Property-wide concealed audio integrated with whole-home Control4 / Crestron AV. The outdoor experience matching the indoor refinement. Average install: $45-120k+.

I had the standard outdoor-speaker conversation for years. Install, last three summers, fail at the connectors, replace. Coastal Source ended that conversation. Ten years in on the first install I did, the bronze patina is the only visible aging. The speakers sound the same as the day I commissioned them. That's the only outdoor audio I bring to a $1M+ project now.

Common questions

What makes Coastal Source different from "outdoor-rated" speakers?

Most outdoor speakers are indoor designs with a UV-resistant plastic shell — they survive a few seasons before water gets into the connections and the speaker fails. Coastal Source is built marine-grade from the ground up: bronze enclosures (not plastic), sealed waterproof connectors (not corroding terminal blocks), stainless steel hardware, full-system grounding. The same engineering that keeps a 30-foot sailboat's stereo working through Atlantic crossings.

How much does a Coastal Source install cost?

A working zone (pool deck, patio, or dock) starts around $8-15k installed (4-6 speakers + a subwoofer + amplification + commissioning). Whole-property multi-zone installs run $25-60k for typical residential — bigger for full estate landscape audio. The hardware is genuinely premium and reflects that, but the lifetime cost works in Coastal Source's favor — you're not replacing speakers every five years.

Why bronze enclosures?

Bronze is corrosion-immune in a way aluminum and steel are not. Galvanized hardware corrodes within five years of constant moisture; aluminum oxidizes; plastic UV-degrades. Bronze develops a stable patina and stops there — the underlying structural integrity stays intact for decades. Coastal Source's bronze enclosures are field-proven in marine, coastal, and high-humidity installs going back twenty years.

Can Coastal Source integrate with Control4 or Crestron?

Yes — Coastal Source amplifiers connect to any whole-home AV matrix. The most common architecture: Control4 (or Crestron) for source selection + zone control, Coastal Source amplification + speakers for the actual outdoor zones. Daniel pairs them on most $1M+ projects with outdoor entertainment areas.

Do you install Coastal Source at Lake of the Ozarks?

Yes. Lake homes are Coastal Source's natural habitat — sustained humidity, occasional storms, salt-adjacent if the dock is near treated water, and the outdoor speakers are running 8+ hours a day in summer. The standard outdoor speaker fails on that workload; Coastal Source handles it for a decade.

What is the warranty?

Coastal Source carries a 10-year manufacturer warranty on speakers and amplification — among the longest in the audio category. IntegrateIT layers our standard 5-year workmanship warranty on top: if something we touched fails because of how we installed it, we fix it. Combined, that's 10+ years of coverage on a typical install.

Hear Coastal Source where it lives.

Outdoor audio is one of those things that's wildly different from a showroom demo to a real pool deck on a Saturday afternoon. Daniel arranges live walkthroughs at finished installs in the KC metro and Lake of the Ozarks before any proposal is signed.
