Focal – Outdoor Solutions with a HiFi Approach
Focal’s outdoor range is positioned slightly differently from typical install speakers, drawing on the brand’s HiFi background to deliver a more full-range, music-led sound profile in hospitality environments.
100 OD Series
The 100 OD range is well suited to applications where wall or structural mounting is available:
- Weather-resistant construction for outdoor use
- Balanced, full-range response suited to background and frontline music
- Straightforward installation in conventional formats
Best suited for: Terraces, pergolas, and outdoor dining areas with clear mounting positions.
OD Stone 8
Where mounting isn’t possible, the OD Stone provides a practical alternative:
- Ground-deployable design, suitable for exposed placement or integration into landscaping
- Broad coverage for open areas
- Extended low-frequency performance and higher output capability than typical surface-mount options
Best suited for: Rooftop terraces and larger open hospitality spaces without suitable mounting infrastructure.
OD 4.1 System
For larger or more design-led projects, the OD 4.1 offers a system-based approach:
- Satellite speakers designed for installation in planting areas via ground spikes
- In-ground subwoofer to provide low-frequency reinforcement
- Expandable depending on coverage requirements
Best suited for: Outdoor environments where discreet deployment is required but consistent, full-range performance is still expected.
Overall, Focal provides integrators with an option to deliver higher-quality music reproduction in outdoor settings, particularly in projects where audio is intended to enhance the overall guest experience rather than function purely as background coverage.

Outline – Ultra-Compact Solutions for Design-Led Outdoor Spaces
Outline’s A-Series sits in a different category within the outdoor speaker conversation. Rather than focusing on high SPL or large-area coverage, it is designed for architectural integration where size, visibility, and aesthetics are key constraints.
A-Series
A highly compact loudspeaker solution suited to discreet installations:
- Extremely slim profile (approx. 45 mm wide and 25 mm deep)
- Low visual impact—can be integrated into architectural features
- Smooth, natural sound suited to close-proximity listening
- Maximum output around 97 dB, positioning it below higher-output outdoor options
This makes the A-Series less suitable for large, high-energy spaces, but highly effective when deployed close to listeners in controlled environments.
Best suited for: design led intimate hospitality environments looking for background music with minimal aesthetic impact – settings such as enclosed terraces, winter gardens, and smaller dining spaces where speakers need to remain unobtrusive.
In these applications, units can be mounted discreetly—for example, along structural elements such as window frames or glass façades—delivering consistent coverage without impacting the visual design of the space.
Overall, Outline provides a specialist option for projects where aesthetic integration and discreet audio delivery take priority over output and scale.

- Coverage consistency across irregular outdoor layouts
- Mounting flexibility to accommodate different structures
- Scalability based on seasonal demand and event usage
