"Joe is hard working, diligent, and honest. I hired him 1) to put up an antenna for local tv service and 2) to fix poor wifi signals. TV was converted from cable rapidly using leftover wires. Saving $ not paying for cable and streaming off wifi. Great signal strength! WiFi was harder. He worked with ATT to determine my new iMac was sucking signals. He installed a more powerful router that solved wifi issues when iMac is off. Now I have to work with Apple to figure out how to manage the computer searching. I would not hesitate to call Joe back again. He is an excellent technician and a fine person. He is pretty busy, so sometimes it takes a few days before he can come out, but he is worth the wait."

Raymond came and asked what my issues were with the computer, listened to all my complaints. I explained about needing one virus software for work (encryption) and one for my computer's needs. He began by checking all the usual sites of issues, ran a virus scan product or two and determined that my issues were not viral related (yeah) but mostly overloaded with add-ons from several companies/sites.

Those got cleared out/removed, he made my home page much more user friendly for me, and explained tons of questions that I had about 'why this, why that, how this, etc.'  He made sure that at start-up, the computer wasn't bogged down, and by then there was already a big improvement. He changed my search engine from one that had been installed when I bought it but didn't know enough to change it.  I now know how to use either of the browser options.

He found documents that I knew were "in the cloud storage' but couldn't find (yes, I know, I'm one of those who wonders which cloud my stuff is in).  Raymond also set up my external hard drive so I could have yet another document storage location (to be really safe--especially since I still don't trust that cloud).

So now, instead of a computer that froze every few minutes I have a computer that is working well and I can concentrate on typing my end-of-term paper and not worrying that the computer will shut down.

Raymond was here about 90-105 minutes and the fee was very reasonable-- money well spent for what I got in return.

"Camber Integration. Our experience with Camber Integration started with a simple phone call. Kristine answered the phone in a very pleasant an helpful tone, a pleasant surprise in the à ¢à  à  New Worldà ¢à  à  we now live in. Kristine listened as I explained my needs and my limited understanding of how to accomplish my goals with my network and in-home internet/Ethernet configuration. She offered that this is exactly the type solutions they provide. As most can appreciate à ¢à  à  technologyà ¢à  à  has programed everyone to depend on it and to need it immediately. I have fallen into this trap myself and asked how soon can someone help me? Kristine said she would contact an associate and call me back within a few minutes. I spoke with Kristine a few minutes later and was advised that à ¢à  à  Kenà ¢à  à  would be available to visit my home at 4:00PM that day and provide an estimate and or correct the problem while onsite. Promptly at 4:00PM, Ken was at my door. He had the information I had previously provided Kristine and I offer additional information and he surveyed our home. Note: This was all done with full consideration and precautions due to COVID-19. Ken was cautious and very respectful of the contents within our home and extremely knowledgeable and confident in his ability to provide the needed solutions with the hardware I have been using. During this initial visit, Ken was able to reprogram my router, my network and several connected devises. This included (fine tuning) how my internet services are provided and distributed within our in-home network. I learned the proper term for à ¢à  à  fine tuningà ¢à  à  is actually à ¢à  à  channelizingà ¢à  à  . Within two hours my network and equipment were working as good as or better than expected. In the last two weeks we have expanded our demands on our network security cameras, and have had Ken back to our home to provide his need expertise. In summary my wife and I could not be happier with the services provided by Camber Integration and their team. Well worth my time and I and very thankful for the help. Remember it all started with a phone call and a pleasant, knowledgeable. reassuring, and confident Kristine answering the phone. Sincerely, Bill W"

FAQs for home theater system or media center installation projects in Oakland, CA

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.
