Your home's exterior tells a story before guests step through the front door. The right outdoor audio and video setup creates an atmosphere that whispers luxury and sophistication. Plus, you get endless entertainment possibilities.

Our unique Portland-area climate demands technology choices that perform beautifully through rain, shine, and everything in between without exception. Entertainment systems have moved far beyond simple patio speakers or Bluetooth speakers that you need to carry around. Even better, outdoor TVs are safer than their indoor counterparts and are ultra-bright to be seen even on the sunniest days. 

These solutions don’t need to stick out like an eyesore, though! Keep reading to learn how to integrate entertainment systems that add curb appeal and deliver performance that rivals indoor systems. It’s time to make your next BBQ more exciting!

A backyard can be so much more than grass and a grill. Why not turn it into your own open-air cinema, where friends and family gather for movies under the stars? With the right smart AV solutions, you can create that perfect summer setting—comfortable seating, clear sound, and a big, bright screen. Want to make it happen? Here’s what you’ll need to plan an outdoor movie night people will remember for years to come. 

Let’s set the scene: you're hosting friends on your Lake Oswego deck as the sun sets over the Pacific Northwest. Jazz flows easily from your living room's premium speakers to the outdoor patio, creating the perfect backdrop for conversation and laughter. Your guests marvel at the crystal-clear sound quality, and with a simple tap on your phone, you adjust the volume in each zone without missing a beat of the evening.

Most homeowners face a frustrating choice when planning their audio setup: incredible sound quality for serious listening or convenient background music for entertaining. But what if you didn't have to choose? With the right audiophile-grade sound system, you can create an environment that satisfies both the most discerning music lovers and makes hosting summer gatherings effortless.

Summer brings with it spontaneous get-togethers, family celebrations, and relaxing evenings with close friends. And while outdoor cookouts and poolside chats have their charm, the heart of many gatherings often lies indoors, where people gravitate toward comfort and connection. The right music fills those moments and makes them last. That’s where NAD Electronics shines. Their high-performance indoor audio systems help you set the tone for every summer memory in your Portland, OR, home.
