I have spent 30+ years in a combined Professional and Home Audio arena. This led me down the path of acquiring a profession into the Healthcare IT/Bio-Medical Engineering environment. While working in these spaces I have maintained a large network of customers supporting their home audio/visual and home networking needs. In addition, I have also supported many small businesses with their networking and IT requirements. My business takes great pride in my experience, expertise, quality, and customer service that I provide to meet the consumer's needs. It is my mission to provide excellent workmanship and complete customer satisfaction from start to completion of a project. In order to understand the needs and expectations of my customers, I take great care to work and communicate with every customer in a professional manner. My reputation is based on service, safety, and quality, regardless of how large or small the job.

"James, the founder and owner of BG Tech was outstanding ! Prompt, professional and extremely capable due to his many years of experience. My project was requiring someone who knew the ins and outs of several previous platforms in my home, He methodically went through checking speakers, volume controls and then set up the best configurations for both our TV and audio for multiple locations. we had a real mish -mash of half conceived and misunderstood setups that resulted from a history of using cable. direct tv and AT & T. We were very satisfied with the "clean-up"and proper configuration of all of our system!"

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 Schaumburg, IL

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.
