We specialize in working with existing homes that might not have essential electrical, speaker and wiring provisions in place to complete a modern high-quality system.  This can often be a tough delimma in an already built home.  None of the install examples in this site had any required provisions in place. We have developed ways to locate and conceal tv's, wires and speakers anywhere without tearing walls apart doing it.  With the advent of ultra high quality streaming services, many are just realizing the amazing rewards and excitement of a cinematic experience you can now enjoy at home.  Achieving a high quality video experience is relatively simple.  Achieving  a high-quality sound and musical experience is un-simple.   We believe that the sound part of the experience is equally if not more important than the the tv image in the room.  Music, and music quality created by a stereo listening area is the most essential part of the magical experience.   But for the magic to work, the sound and musical quality must be right.  There's a dynamic quality threshold that must be met regarding sound performance to complete the magical home entertainment experience.  That's why we suggest a proven expert to put all the pieces together.   We often demonstrate some of the finest a/v systems available right in your home  allowing us the opportunity to test and impress because hearing is believing in the ultimate sound performance.  We also have demo facilities for the specialty systems we sell and install.  If you are genuinely interested in learning more about "Magical" quality entertainment systems, we will take the time and effort to work one-on-one with potential clients to prove our passion in person as we continue to offer  "in-home demo's" - often very effective in generating excitement and new-found interest.

hearing is believing

A flat screen television shows a news broadcast with a woman reporting, and a wall-mounted speaker with two large orange and black speaker cones.

Great sound comes from the right equipment, its placement, and the acoustics of your room. With 25 years of experience in sound engineering and design, we can create a system that works best for your space. For years, we have set up listening rooms and home theaters in Central Ohio. Larger homes often have a designated area for surround sound, but the living room—where you relax and spend time with family—is often overlooked. The amazing advancement in today’s streaming services offer stunning leisure time experiences in music, film, movies, sports and education. Our experience tells us that the best place to enhance and embrace todays streaming entertainment is where it feels good. Living rooms and bedrooms offer comfort and relaxation and can be greatly enhanced by high quality sound for music and TV programs. The dilemma is that unless you are building a new home from scratch, existing homes are difficult by limited access in comfort zones to install the crucial wiring, electric, and speaker requirements that are essential. With this acquired understanding, we have worked tirelessly to identify, create, and develop unique installation techniques for existing homes to overcome the biggest hurdle in achieving a high quality entertainment environment. Our novel techniques will allow you to hide speakers and wiring in existing family rooms and gathering spots so you can enjoy leisure time entertainment streaming.
