We often get asked what to wire for in a new home. Here's a video from Matt at TYM Smart Homes that should answer some of those questions.

It's finally here. What to wire for your Smart Home in 2021, the top devices and wires to run.Here's the link to the prewire checklist I mentioned in the vi...

It doesn't look like it, but that's a 75" Sony TV with the New Sonos Arc. It was a beast to mount.

It was all about meeting with the client during the framing stage of construction or earlier.

These homeowners were glad to say goodbye to the mess and the Bose equipment. We upgraded them to the Sonos Playbar/Sub Combo, Sonos AMP with a four (4) zone speaker selector with volume controls and a couple of Sonos Ones in the kitchen set up as a stereo pair.

How they ever heard any bass out of this system with the sub in a closed cabinet, I'm not sure.

Why mount a TV 2 feet higher than it needs to be in the Family Room. Here's a recent install of a 65" LG OLED TV in a planned location only about 3 feet off the floor on an articulating mount. This is a much more comfortable viewing height in this area than 6 to 8" above the 5 foot mantle. It also enables you to decorate the area above the fireplace for the holidays.

We also mounted an OLED 55" in the master bed sitting room and another 55" in the office.

Happy Holidays, everyone.

Do you have a hole for an old tube TV (this one house had an old 200 pound Sony 36" tube) or a hole for a smaller flat screen TV, but want to go BIG! This is a new 4K 65". We have a solution. Give us a call.

Here's an installation we just completed. The 75" widescreen TV is floating in a hole previously occupied by an old 50" 4 x 3 format TV on wheels. To complete the installation we constructed a custom speaker cabinet below the TV that now contains the center, left, right and subwoofer and neatly fills in the rest of the hole.

Antenna customers update: It appears all the station owners didn't get "the memo" on the date change to the 11th. So if you watch 21, 27 or 38 you'll need to rescan. Channels 7 & 10 are still scheduled for the 11th and channel 13 sometime next year. 15 isn't moving at this time.

Plan to rescan date has been changed.

To all our antenna users: The plan to rescan date has been moved from Friday September 6th to Wednesday September 11th at 12:30 pm.

Let us know if you have any questions on how to do it.

Notification to our antenna users: Our local stations 7, 10, 21, 24, 27 & 36 will be switching the station on which they broadcast sometime between 8-3-19 and 9-6-19. Channel 13 is moving 3-14-20 to 5-1-20. There doesn't seem to be any set date (channel 10 is saying it will do this 9-6-19) , so the bottom line will be when you lose one of these stations you will need to rescan all impacted devices. These channels will not move their Virtual Channel (7, 10, 21, etc.) just the actual broadcast channel.

If you need help during this transition please give us a call.

Thinking about installing some Sonos speakers but are not excited about the way they look. Well Leon Speakers have done something about that.

In some spaces, it’s easy to tuck the Sonos speaker into a shelf or a nook, but sometimes the design of the space doesn’t quite match the look of the Sonos.
