"If you are looking for someone to wire up a home theater, look no further. What I liked best was pure honesty, and folks, that trait seems to be in short supply nowadays, yet Brian has that trait."

Customers say: Quality work

"I called several companies and decided on Echo Systems Solutions. The customer service was great as was the workmanship. Four security cameras were installed at my residence. The operational use of the cameras and the features associated with them were fully explained to me prior to the workers leaving. The following day I spoke with Sam from the company who wanted to ensure I was satisfied and address any additional questions I might have had. Without question, I would definitely use Echo Systems Solutions and would recommend them to family and friends."

Stereo and Home Theater Systems questions, answered by experts

For movies, television, and games that feature surround sound output, no other setup than true 5.1 or 7.1 surround is capable of matching the fidelity and presence they offer. If, however, music is your audio priority—or you tend to favor older movies and broadcast television that’s unlikely to include surround sound output—you might be better off putting your money toward two high-quality speakers designed to reproduce stereo sound.

You can customize your home theater to include a wide range of features, but the minimum components include a wall-mounted TV, sound system, and comfortable seating. The cost will vary depending on the components you choose. Some of the most common elements and their costs include:

  • Home theater screen: $250–$1,500

  • Low-end front projector: $1,500

  • High-end front projector: $10,000–$60,000

  • 4K 50” to 60” TV: $800–$1,500

  • Wiring and circuit board: $400–$2,700

  • 60-inch TV and bracket: $900

  • Five box speakers and subwoofer: $500

  • Three HDMI cables: $30

  • Amplifier: $250

  • Universal remote: $20–$200

  • Surge protection: $25 and up

You can stream HDR video content from most major streaming services, including Amazon, Google Play, Itunes, Netflix, and Vudu with a 4K TV. You can also use this content in various forms, such as 4K Blu-ray players, cameras, and smartphones. 

In addition, 4K content is gamer-friendly. You can use major gaming platforms such as the PS5 and Xbox to stream 4K gaming.

An accredited, licensed smart home specialist should install your home automation system. For example, a qualified smart home specialist will belong to an organization like the Custom Electronic Design & Installation Association. Licenses for qualified technicians require the technician to demonstrate experience and pass state testing. If you’re ready to install a home automation system, consult multiple technicians in your area to compare services and prices and find the best fit for your job.

When deciding whether a home automation system is right for you, consider the advantages and disadvantages first.

Pros

  • Home automation can help make your home more energy efficient, possibly lowering utility bills.

  • A wide range of automated solutions is available to meet your needs.

  • Centralized and remote control of different home automation systems.

Cons

  • Home automation can be costly.

  • Not all automated systems are compatible with each other.

  • Over-dependence on home automation can be problematic if systems cannot connect to the cloud.
