Coastal Source, an industry designer and manufacturer of high-performance outdoor audio and lighting, is returning to the 2025 Mid-Atlantic Nursery Trade Show (MANTS) with new outdoor lighting and audio solutions that provide landscape professionals and landscape designers with expanded options for their customers. Coastal Source will exhibit its outdoor offerings in booth #2608 of the Baltimore Convention Center from Jan. 8-10, 2025.
“Outdoor living is becoming a priority for homeowners in all parts of the country,” said Kevin Minton, national sales manager at Coastal Source. “Our new outdoor lighting and audio solutions are designed, engineered and manufactured to provide homeowners with a lifetime of outdoor enjoyment in every type of environment. Our 15-plus years of industry-leading product design and development can really help landscape professionals grow their business.”
Available in early February, EVO is designed to be a beautiful, elegant and refined outdoor lighting fixture, according to the company. Compared to a 6W MR16 fixture, EVO is 50 percent smaller, has higher output (up to 560lm), has a wider beam angle, has two dispersion patterns (direct and 360+), has two color temperatures (2700K and 3000K), has less glare and improved optics. EVO’s custom designed fully integrated LED module is based on a CREE LED. The company said its design fully seals all the electronics of the light into a compact, thermally efficient and watertight package. Numerous shrouds, hats, risers and accessories enable hundreds of unique fixture designs to give lighting designers more options to solve various lighting issues.
Pathfinder is Coastal Source’s patented small-form speaker, designed to provide high-quality multi-directional sound to fill in the physical gaps of outdoor music experiences. As the fully integrated entry point into the Coastal Source speaker family, it offers flexible mounting options and easy Plug+Play installation.
Coastal Source’s Cube makes outdoor music more three-dimensional as it provides audiophile bass from a classic, compact shape that blends into the landscape and is designed to perform for years in even challenging environments. Each elegant 16-inch enclosure houses a powerful 350-watt, 10-inch bass driver and can be placed anywhere on a property to provide a flexible bass system without the need to disrupt landscape scenery. Cube is offered in three stone tops — Travertine, Bluestone or Granite — to give designers and homeowners the more uniqueness in the landscape design.
Finally, Contour is a low-profile speaker serving as the entry point into the Coastal Source outdoor sound experience. Hidden in the landscape, placed on a deck or mounted on a wall or ceiling, the two-way coaxial speaker includes a titanium dome tweeter and a fractal wave guide to improve efficiency.
“Coastal Source has a lighting and audio solution for every type and size of outdoor living environment,” Minton said. “We look forward to meeting with MANTS show attendees to explain and demonstrate how Coastal Source can become an important part of their growth strategy in 2025 and beyond.”
