Atlanta Home Theater And Home Automation

One of the questions I get asked quite often is,

“Do you only install home theater equipment that you supply… or will you be willing to install a projector, screen & speakers that I have bought on my own”.

The question that every home theater installer dreads.

Let’s face it online shopping for home theater equipment is big business. Sometimes it is difficult for a small home theater company to compete with huge manufacturers who are willing to slit the throats of the typical home theater installer by selling directly to the end user.

This is life. We can complain and moan all day long. But in the end, the home user can many times buy the equipment for the same price as the installer or even cheaper.

So the answer to your question is…

While other home theater installers will flat out refuse to…

I will be happy to work with you.

Why?

I hope to build a long term relationship with our clients so that we will continue to be your favorite choice for home theater installation in Atlanta Georgia.

Then perhaps in the future, when you are ready to hang a plasma TV over the fireplace, or are ready to update your 20 year old intercom system , or are interested in a central vacuum system for your home you will give me a call.

Of course there are a few downsides to supplying your own equipment. Do you know what they are?

What is the big deal about the JVC Professional Line of Home Theater Projectors?

Your home theater will begin with the finest projector for the money out there. The JVC professional line of projectors was a steal at $15,000 only a few years ago. But don’t worry, you won’t have to pay that much. Due to the advancement of technology this price has dropped drastically. In fact, today it is available for less than half of that.

What makes this 1080 P HDTV projector so sought after?

Simply this…There is a big debate out there about whether or not you should get a LCD projector for your theater room or invest in a DLP projector. What JVC did is invent a hybrid of the two technologies. In other words take the best of both worlds & roll it into one projector!

It’s called D-ILA technology You can read more about the JVC DLA RS1U Projector & it’s JVC D-ILA technology here.

By the way we have this projector available in our home theater showroom for you to demo your favorite movie.

In case you haven’t heard by now but the HTC has been replaced by the new control4 HC300.

 Do You Do Atlanta Intercom Repairs?

A week doesn’t go by when I am not asked this question.

Unfortunately, the answer depends on how old your system is.

Do you have a Nutone or M&S intercom system that isn’t working anymore? Perhaps your doorbell stopped working or lightning has hit your main control station. Would you like your intercom system repaired?

It basically comes down to this:
How old is your intercom system?

If your intercom system is more than a few years old, you will most likely have to look at updating your entire system.

Why is that?

Unfortunately, the new parts don’t swap out with the old parts. In other words you can’t just simply swap out the main station and leave the old door stations. They just do not communicate together.

Intercom manufacturers are a lot like the auto industry. Every few years they update the technology and body styles. This almost forces you to eventually upgrade. It’s the same with your old intercom system.

So if you have a 20 year old intercom system…I’m sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but I would still like to help. I regularly remove old nutone and M&S (Music & Sound) intercom systems and install brand new systems that have their own CD player built in. We can also tie them into your existing home stereo.

Are you unsure of how old your system is, or if you would like to know if we can get replacement parts…Then give us a call.

I look forward to helping you with your Atlanta Intercom Repair.

It is a sad reality that in today’s society…it takes more than one income to put food on the table for the average family.

Where does that leave our little ones?

Its frustrating to say this, but it’s exactly as the movie put it… “Home Alone”.

When I was a boy, it was pretty common for a family to get by on just one paycheck.

Have things changed any?

It can be so overwhelming with all of this talk of HD, HDTV and High Def, have you ever felt that way?

Going to Best Buys or Circuit City and asking one of their associates doesn’t help either as they gush out and bubble over with techno-geek language that simply goes right over your head sometimes.

So lets explain it in a simple and easy way so that you can buy the Television that you want without spending any more money than necessary.

What is HD?

A home cinema room shouldn’t be set up as you normally would set up a typical family room- it has specific requirements if you plan on getting the ultimate experience from every digitally enhanced special effect you watch and hear. There are a few simple things you can do right now to make the most of the audio and video of your movies you are watching. The more of these that you can implement…the greater the quality of the sound and picture of your existing system.

Number one: Imitate the way a standard movie theater is set up and arranged. (Read more…)

It is amazing how many builders still do not take advantage of my complimentary low voltage walkthru with their clients before we wire their home.

Don’t get me wrong… I am very appreciative of all of our 50 plus builders that we work with here in Atlanta GA.

While spec homes are one thing (Everything is wired the same)-a new home buyer that is building from the ground up deserves to be able to choose where their phone and cable outlets will go.

Don’t you agree? (Read more…)
