Systems Design
There are several facets to the design of Home Automation systems...


Home Local Area Network
We are now in a new era in history, the Information Age. There is one critical technology that will take us more quickly into the Information Age, and that technology is NETWORKING. Its potential and functionality is great. The HLAN system allows our clients homes to be pre-wired in such a way that they are networked and ready for tomorrow's technology, while making the home more functional with present technologies.

Home Theater v.s. Media Room
Often, our clients choose not to dedicate a whole room to a theater, rather choosing to create a media room where the family can spend time together in a less formal entertainment setting. The primary difference between dedicated home theaters, and media rooms/entertainment centers is our ability to control the environment. More...


Acoustic Design
Through careful, professional, acoustic design, a system that was destined to be "great" becomes one that wholly involves the audience. Whenever watching or listening, we want our audience to forget their surroundings, giving in to the illusion that they are actually part of the movie, or, listening to a performer perform live. More...


Electronic Room Correction
Digital signal processing allows us to make even greater refinements in the accuracy of the audio reproduction. Through proper use of Equalizers, Real Time Analyzers and other tools, we can further correct acoustic problems with the room, speakers or general setup of the system. The result is a breathtaking experience regardless of less than ideal conditions. More...

Surround Sound Formats
In home theater and audio, just when consumers think that nothing else is needed or possible, the latest technology comes along and blows everyone away. Never before has it been possible to so closely match the experience of "being there" in a clients own home. With continuing advances in technology making the best devices obsolete, it is important for us as designers and consultants to look for the most future proof solutions. We consider this focus to be one of our most important tools when designing and implementing systems for our clients. More...
