I recommend that you get two of the 2-channel Behringer iNUKE NU1000
amplifiers, which Sweetwater Sound sells for only $150 each. They are rated for 500 watts per channel.
I also recommend that you get speakers that are rated for 200 watts or more; you will need them for an outdoor system.
500W for driving 4x 50w speakers?
I guess you meant to say 4x500W speakers?
NO.
First of all, the amp in question is just plain cheap, and has plenty of power. there is no problem with having extra power, and it makes it more reliable.
Second, your 50 watt speakers are not likely to give you enough sound for your application. I think you need speakers that are rated for AT LEAST 200 watts each!
Ignore that advice and you will find out the hard way.
As for a network connection, there are all sorts of ways to implement that.
This is a music/Hifi forum and not really the site to post about commercial needs. Yes outdoor horn speakers would be on the list and crown makes amps for your purpose.
