Allow us to inspire you with a dozen products guaranteed to enrich your outdoor experience…or adventure.
Inside and Out
It’s easy to keep the tunes flowing when you walk out onto your deck with Riva Audio’s Arena, a formidable speaker ($249) that handles hi-res audio up to 192 kilohertz/24 bits and supports streaming over your Wi-Fi/AirPlay/DLNA network or via Bluetooth when you’re out of range. It’s only 7 inches tall but packs a 50-watt amplifier and three drivers, each paired with a bass-boosting passive radiator. The payoff: Full-bodied sound from a speaker that goes mobile when you attach the optional 20-hour battery pack ($99).As a bonus, the Arena also supports Google’s Chromecast platform, which makes it easy to stream tunes from just about any app you can imagine. Oh, and no worries when Uncle Joe knocks over his Sprite—it’s splash-resistant.

The Big Clean
Chances are you probably do not think about the state of your electronic devices too often. Oh, you might think about all the upgrades you would like to make; where you would put those new tower speakers, or how a second or third subwoofer would really tame those bass modes in your room, or how much more cinematic a larger screen would be. Sure, you think about that part of your system. But how often do you think about the well-being of your system?
