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"

FAQs for home theater surround sound system installation projects in Chicago, IL

Multi-room ceiling speaker installations vary in cost depending on the number of speakers you’re installing, wiring requirements, and system complexity. Each additional room increases material needs and labor time. The total expense grows with the scope of the project, with factors like ceiling accessibility and integration requirements influencing the final price.

Installation time depends on system complexity and ceiling access. According to installation data, four speakers take two to three hours to install, while 10 speakers require five to 7.5 hours. More complex setups with custom wiring or difficult-to-access ceilings may extend the timeline. First-time DIY installations often take longer than professional work due to the learning curve involved.

Most residential ceilings can accommodate speaker installation, though methods vary based on your ceiling material. Standard drywall offers straightforward installation, while other materials can present unique challenges. Some ceiling types may require special mounting solutions or alternative speaker placement strategies to achieve optimal sound quality, secure positioning, and aesthetic integration.

Ceiling speakers offer several advantages, including preserved floor space and distributed sound coverage. While the initial investment of $1,000 to $2,000 is significant, many homeowners appreciate the clean aesthetic and immersive audio experience these systems provide. For entertainment spaces and multi-room audio setups, ceiling speakers can enhance both functionality and home value.
