"Went great. I had an old 46 inch TV removed from the wall in my living room and they installed a new 65 inch TV and programmed it. I am also a cord cutter in regards to cable. They installed a TV antenna in the attic and they activated three outlets in my three bedrooms. The TV antenna is great because the picture is fantastic and I receive a ton of signals; its a great way to save money from cable. Justin the owner came out and did the initial estimate and he was fantastic to speak with. Justin's two employees that came out to do the install were great and they worked non stop while they were at my home and they were easy to speak to if I had questions. They worked the entire day at my home. I will have them come back to hang two other TV's in my other two bedrooms. Service was fantastic and I am super happy."

"Professional from the jump! Quick to respond...but not pushy. Knowledgeable and patient to explain what applications would or would not work for my environment. Not "salesy" but I did end up purchasing more than initially intended bc they have the coolest toys. On the day of my install, I wasn't present due to work. They ran into trouble and had to call me with two secondary options. I love that they had the problem solved before they called. The equipment and install was top notch - and didn't break the bank. I shopped around and am so glad I chose Acme Automation. They worked within my budget and I planned it in 3 stages to install to achieve my goal of a "smart home"....oh and one more thing which is so important...they left the house so clean, even taking packaging trash. It was so nice to come home and walk into a transformed living room, patio and tv room. Thank you Acme - let's do it again and again and again!"

Small jobs welcome

"Scott was tremendous. Arrived right on time. I'm sure this wasn't near a difficult job for him (installing ceiling rear speakers, re-routing sub-woofer coax, swapping in a new Denon AVR, setting that up, and reprogramming our Harmony One), but he took all the time he needed, kept us informed along the way, and didn't leave until into the night after all was working great."
Happy Holidays from Custom Automated Solutions!

"Tim was on time, he was professional, and he talked me through all my options as far as products, ideas for installation, and possible problems. He worked through difficult situation with my insulation in the roof and made it look easy. I will work with Tim in the future with my audio and video upgrades!

"Very well. CI Systems was very easy to deal with. I found them knowledgeable and easy to communicate with. If I had questions or ideas, they listed to me. I would hire them again and in the future if I expand my system."

FAQs for home theater system or media center installation projects in Carefree, AZ

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.
