Our Installers are part artist, part craftsman, part carpenter and part electrician, and at times, a troubleshooter and trainer. If you've ever seen one of these multi-talented people at work in your home, you can't help but feel a little bit sorry for the torture a typical installation normally puts them through - especially the retro-fit installs. Installers are called on to crawl through attics, come up with ways to pull wire through impossibly tight spaces and figure out ways to fit equipment into spaces no normal person would ever dream of doing - while at the same time making the system look like it belongs in your home and work flawlessly. In addition to being familiar with electrical code, the installers need to know everything about low-voltage wiring and how it differs. Unlike the electrical wiring connecting the AC outlets in your home, for example, it's not functional to connect speaker wire from speaker to speaker. More than one overly cost-conscious homeowner has painfully discovered (after the home was finished) that the electrician who did such a fine job on the electrical wiring didn't understand the unique requirements of audio/video wiring.

When it comes to the best installations, the result of all that hard work should be virtually invisible - but that doesn’t mean it's not important to the proper operation of your home entertainment system. Ironically, the job of a good installation team is to make themselves and the hidden parts of your system totally forgettable so you can simply sit back and enjoy.
