"As usual, Amazing work. Carlos has been handling all of our home theater work for the last 15+ years. Top notch work, creativity, trustworthiness...etc. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone no matter how large or small the job!"
Carlos has the speaker installed along with the TV mount well underway.  Xfinity cable box, Sonos amplifier etc all concealed down within the homes basement!  Out of sight, out of mind!
Carlos installing 1 of 4 RING Solar Cams overlooking the clients driveway.
Sometimes you just have to smile and kill them with kindness...  LOL!
120" projection screen w/ backlighting and 5.1 speaker system
TV's don't have to always look like a TV.  Why not match your TV and audio system to match the aesthetics in your room?
Here we installed a Samsung Frame TV and Sonos Beam soundbar (both in white).

"I hired Promethean Solutions to install a complete audio/visual system in my new tattoo shop. The end result far exceeded my expectations. Sean mounted a TV in the lobby and set the shop up with a great wirelessly controlled audio system. He also networked the shop so it works seamlessly. The work quality is top shelf as well as the professionalism he did it with."

"I asked Lee for a quote for 2 alternative solutions to install a surround sound and hang TV on the wall, with the goal of removing the components and the TV stand/media center from the leaving room. Lee came up with a much more creative idea to achieve my goal that wan't more extensive than what I asked him to do. Lee was very knowledgable and understands video, sound and system design. I like that fact that he does the design, was on site with the installers while the job was done, and came at the end to fine tune/calibrate my system himself. The result was beyond my expectation. the sound/video is incredible, and the most important thing no media center/TV stand, no components everything is nicely hidden at the top of our coat closet in an unused space. 
Why did Lee stand out from the others?
He was very knowledgeable (I did an extensive research before and all his recommendations were spot on), honest and creative. He was involved in every step of the process His prices were competitive, and he didn't try to up-sell me more expensive stuff than what I needed, or already had. Also, Lee stuck to his final quote even though the job took longer that expected.
Finally, I have to respond to a negative review that someone wrote saying that Lee quoted  $800 for a universal remote. Obviously I wasn't part of their conversation, but I find it hard to believe b/c ALL the quotes I got from Lee were in writing by email and he
quoted me around $400 for a high end remote including his time to program it to my system. It is a shame that people can write inaccurate stuff and effect someone's reputation that way.

"This company made everything easy and the result was perfect!! I needed a large 82” tv hung in my living room and also an electronic fireplace mounted under it. In addition I wanted the wires hidden which was done to perfection. I also in my hallway had a huge decorative picture with a frame and it was extremely heavy and they mounted it perfectly. Also I had a floating cabinet in my man cave to store my PS5 gaming system and they installed that as well. The company appeared to pay attention to detail constantly measuring and using a level to be sure the outcome was right. I would recommend this company to anyone for tv, sound or any other type of installs."

"My second appointment with Geek Choice in March went well. The phone call from the office to determine what I wanted to accomplish at the visit is a great idea. I would say that here is where Geek Choice can look for complications. For example, someone who's used a computer at work and at home may still be unaware of some basic ideas. For example, if a device is to be added, does it need to be charged, does the person have the correct cable or battery, etc. Young people know this; older people do not necessarily.
The representative was courteous, knowledgeable, patient, and offered additional tips. He arrived within the time frame specified.
I will contact Geek Choice again.

"It took all day for the electrician to complete the installation but we hardly knew he was there.
My only complaint was that it cost as much for the installation as for the generator, and they wanted a similar amount to repair an outlet immediately adjacent to the wall on which he was working.
We subsequently had another electrician make that repair for $150.

FAQs for home theater system or media center installation projects in Boston, MA

For those on a budget, a home theater system can be installed for as little as $5,000. This simple setup, which doesn’t require professional installation, includes essential components that provide reliable visual and audio performance. It's a budget-friendly way to enjoy movies, TV shows, and live events from the comfort of your home.

Plan to spend at least $70,000 for a high-end home theater. At this price point, you’re paying for advanced components, including flagship projectors, reference-grade speakers, dedicated subwoofers, robust A/V receivers, and professional installation. These features deliver outstanding picture quality, rich surround sound, and a polished finish. Costs climb quickly when you add custom seating, acoustic treatments, and smart-home integration, so ask your installer for a detailed estimate before committing.

The ideal screen size for optimal home theater viewing ranges between 100 and 120 inches. A well-proportioned home theater room measures 24 feet by 15 feet, with a minimum ceiling height of nine feet. However, smaller spaces, such as 15 feet by 20 feet or 10 feet by 12 feet, can also work well. These dimensions enhance acoustics and visual performance, creating an immersive entertainment environment.

A well-built home theater room should last as long as the house, but the electronics inside need periodic attention. Plan to review your equipment every four to five years to see whether new formats, connection standards, or performance upgrades justify a change. Upgrading outdated projectors, receivers, or streaming devices keeps the system running efficiently and prevents compatibility issues, all while protecting the investment you’ve already made in the space.
