"I called to schedule a 1-hour in-home computer tune-up.  The person I spoke with seemed very professional and we made an appointment for 3:30 pm the next Friday.  ON the day of the appointment, my husband got a call at 9 am from someone who said he was coming to our house and was going to late.  The guy calling had trouble explaining who he was, but my husband figured out eventually that he was coming from Geek Choice and that he thought the appointment was at 9 am.  My husband explained that I wasn't home and that the appointment was actually scheduled for 3:30 pm.  The technician was pretty upset - despite the fact that he was half an hour away from our house at that time.  But he did agree to come at 3:30 pm. <br /> At 3:50 pm, no sign of him.  I called to see what was going on.  He didn't apologize, just said he was caught in traffic -- that Friday afternoons are a bad time to be on the highway.  At the time, he was so far away that even without  traffic it would have taken him 30 minutes to get to our house.  I said we would need to reschedule and he seemed shocked.  I decided that with that level of customer service, I would just find someone else. <br />"

"Over the last few years, we have gone to AV Innovations for all our A/V needs. Alan, the owner, installed multiple HD 4K OLED televisions (including a 4k frame tv with artwork that is totally cool), running the wires behind the walls so they werenâ t visible. He also installed in-wall surround sound speakers and even programmed the remotes to work with it all. Next, we had him install a super high-end outdoor entertainment system to complement the new patio with an outdoor kitchen and fire pit. Alan came out to inspect the property, gave us some options that fit our budget and now the backyard is alive with â concert styleâ audio. Inclusive is a set of 6 stem speakers, and one 12â subwoofer and to top it off he suggested that for the firepit area, we should have 2 â rock styleâ speakers for listening during the late hours. All the workings go right through the smartphone so anyone that has the app (and login info) can use it. Most recently, we had AV Innovations add security cameras that surround the property which is very complemental to the Ring devices that he previously installed. Alan is very meticulous and makes sure that he leaves the property as he found it. AV Innovations is fully insured, and we will use them again! Five stars!"

"Michael Chapman installed a tv Mount for a large rather heavy tv in my sons playroom. The safety of my child was my biggest priority as well as his considering the TVs weight. He provided great service and I am very confident in the structural integrity of the Mount."

"He was exceptional. He came in and said that he could fix it and he did. Our five speaker Bose System has not worked in two or three years. He walked in and within 35 minutes, had the sound throughout our game room. It was wonderful. He was courteous, smart, and capable. I would hire him again in a second. He gets a five star rating for me."

"Jose called me immediately and scheduled a service call for the next day to look at my TV. He was knowledgeable and pleasant to talk to. Got my TV fixed for a third of the cost of a new TV. I feel his prices are very fair, he shows up on time for the appointment and he promptly communicates with you. I would highly recommend Jose for any electronic or IT repair."

FAQs for home theater surround sound system installation projects in Pittsburgh, PA

Installing ceiling speakers is challenging and often the most difficult type of installation for surround sound systems. It involves electrical work and cutting into the ceiling, all done from a ladder, which can slow progress and increase labor costs. You can save money by choosing surface-mounted speakers on brackets instead of in-ceiling designs.

Surround sound systems are worthwhile if you value immersive experiences for movies and gaming. For casual music listening or TV watching, the benefits may not justify the costs. Consider testing a system at a retail store to determine if it's right for you. Starting with a standard 5.1 system allows you to upgrade over time.

Soundbars are an efficient audio solution that delivers clear sound. They can simulate the surround sound experience when you pair them with satellite speakers. However, dedicated 5.1 or 7.1 surround sound systems offer superior fidelity and immersive performance that is essential for fully engaging movie, TV, and gaming experiences.

The cost to install a home theater system represents a comprehensive entertainment experience that transforms your living space. Building a home theater system costs an average of $17,500, including essential components such as a large TV or projector, a surround sound system, premium seating, and a media center. The overall expense adjusts based on room dimensions and the quality of each appliance, ensuring that every installation meets specific spatial and performance requirements. This structured cost approach provides a clear framework for achieving a high-performance home theater.
