Our Custom Services |
Prewires
Audio Connection offers prewiring services. Our prewires typically
consist of running Category-5 (Cat-5) phone and data wire, RG-6 coaxial
cable, and 16/4 speaker wire.
The Cat-5 is ultra high bandwidth four twisted pair wiring. This
wiring is perfect for modern phone systems and home networking. It is
fully compliant for standard telephone service - including analog and
digital key systems (these are typically used in businesses but have
been making their way into homes over the last several years), DSL
modems, 10 and/or 100 Base-T networks. We also use the Cat-5 wiring for
communication between remote keypad locations and the distributed
audio/video equipment.
The RG-6 coaxial cable is quad-shielded. This helps protect the digital
signals as they are traveling through the house. This wire is used for
satellite systems, cable TV systems, cable modems, local broadcast
stations, as well as HDTV signals.
The 16/4 speaker wire is four pair 16 gauge stranded wire. It is used
to send amplified audio signals from the source equipment to the
speakers. Depending on the situation this wire may first run to a
volume control to allow independent volume levels in different rooms.
The wiring is typically run to a wiring closet or panel. This makes the
distribution of the various signals neat and easy to configure.
Home Theater Rooms
Audio Connection custom designs and installs Home Theater Rooms.
When you purchase an Audio Connection system you can count on a
system
that blends in with the aesthetics of your room
and provides a viewing
experience that rivals commercial movie theaters.
A theater room usually consists of a projector system on a 100-inch or
larger screen. Plasma and LCD TVs can be used as well. The projector is
teamed with an audio/video receiver which processes and amplifies the
surround sound information from all of your various sources. These
sources can include a Blu-Ray DVD player, Satellite Receiver, Cox cable
/ verizon Fios, etc. The system can be controlled with a remote that is
custom programmed for your system. These remote controls make the
system very easy to use by utilizing one touch operation
Family Rooms
Today manufacturers are making TV screens larger and larger. They come
in a variety of different types. These
TVs look fantastic when paired
with some
of our
Audio/Video Furniture.
Family room systems can have
all of the advantages of a dedicated theater room but with the
convenience of the system being in a higher traffic area of
the house.
Built Ins
A "built in" is typically a Plasma, LCD or projection TV built into a
wall or wall
unit with only the screen visible. These TVs can look
similar to a picture
hanging on a wall when correctly trimmed.
Distributed Audio
Distributed audio systems can be as simple as two or more rooms with
speakers that play the same thing at the same volume. Or, they can be
as
elaborate as multi-zone systems where any room in the house can
independently play and control any available source at any volume.
The
systems can be controlled from in-wall keypads and/or in-wall
touchpanels capable of displaying full motion
video. Also, each room
will usually have its own volume control to adjust the volume
level or
to turn the
sound completely off.
Home Networking
Audio Connection can install all of the parts needed for your home network.
A network provides the ability to share an Internet connection among
all of your computers, as well as, share files, printers, music, even
streaming video.
With a home network you won't have to save a file to a
floppy disk and walk
to another area of the house just to print a
document. You also don't need
multiple phone lines or multiple IP
addresses from your Internet Service
Provider. We use the highest
quality Category 5 twisted pair cable, AMP®
Cat-5e jacks, and hubs,
routers, switches, etc from Netgear and Linksys.
iPod & Computer Music Integration
Do you have an iPod, iPhone, iPod Touch or MP3 player? Do you use
iTunes?
Audio Connection can EASILY integrate them into your
whole-house audio
system. It can be an "iPod dock" or a server-based
solution that
Automatically syncs to your iTunes or computor based
music.
We can do it and it will be so easy, you won't have to ask your
kids for help. Our "iPod" integration allows you listen to your iPod's
tunes through your best speakers and view its song titles, playlists,
photos, and video on your TV. So bring in your iphone, internet capable
cell phone or itouch and let us show you these cool applications.
Service After The Sale
Our customers tell us that customer service is one of the things that
sets us apart from the other guys. Audio Connection is also here for
you after the sale. Can't figure out your new remote or how to play a
DVD movie? No problem. We are just a phone call away to help give you
guidance on your new system. And we answer our own phones. You won't
have to push endless buttons to find a helpful human voice.
Furthermore, we all know that eventually many products need some
service. Our factory trained service center can repair everything we
sell. After thousands of hours of being in business, you might say that
we are getting pretty good at it. We say that we are still learning.
New equipment, new customers, new people. All add up to new learning
experiences. So we take nothing for granted. That's why "good" is not
enough. We always strive for "better"!!
