Poolside movies never looked so good.Backyard theaters aren’t difficult to pull off. Portable projectors and wireless speakers are affordable and can be easily positioned on patios and decks.

Not only that, but this outdoor setup would serve as the system on which the owner would screen movies for his production business. Consequently, “he expected nothing less than a reference-grade experience,” Minhas says.
