Let's face it, choosing the right A/V gear for your budget and room can be daunting. Let Empirical help you navigate the technology, brands and confusing set-up. We offer room- and budget-specific AV consultation; personal shopper services; video & audio installation, cabling, wire/cord management, set-up & optimization; Logitech Universal Remote programming and, finally, THX® certified TV/projector calibration to SMPTE standards to ensure you're seeing what the director intended.

"Jim is the most professional technically proficient low voltage electrician with an enthusiasm to match. He will help you with your project. I can not stress how helpful, thoughtful and considerate he is. He will explain in detail and review with you , also in detail, what type of work is expected. Whether you have exact specs or need guidance, whether you have a broad budget or narrow scope, Jim has the knowledge to complete the task or even guide you in the right direction. I would like to personally thank him for a complicated ceiling install for a new 11.2.4 system even in a non dedicated AV space. Should I ever begin a much larger dedicated home theater, I whole heartedly will begin and likely obtain his input and guidance on such a project as well. Again , thank you Mr Crilly for exceptional work! Hopefully I can add photos once the rest of project is complete. ?Kyle"

Stereo and Home Theater Systems questions, answered by experts

They offer cable concealment and sound system integration, enhancing the viewing experience.

Most installations take 4-8 hours, but custom setups may take a full day or more.

To determine which size of ceiling speakers is best for your room, consider the room’s size, ceiling height, and how powerful your speakers are. Generally, larger rooms require speakers that are between eight and 10 inches in size. Smaller rooms have less of an area for sound to travel, so speakers that are six to seven inches will be sufficient.

Installing surround sound costs about $750 on average, ranging from $240 to $1,250, depending on the type of surround sound, number of rooms, wired or wireless, mounted or integrated speakers, and location. Full-room surround sound typically costs about $700 per room, but in-ceiling speakers only cost about $200 to $500 per pair. Consult your home theater design professional to determine the best surround sound solution for your project.

Position speakers according to recommended guidelines, calibrate them correctly using a sound meter or software and minimize sound interference by arranging furniture and decor around your setup to support acoustics.
