"I purchased a TV Lift cabinet and needed assistance with installing a 65" LED TV, and also wanted some expert advise. I got a call back the same day, and setup an appointment to review my requirements. Got an appointment scheduled for just a few days later. Jesse, the owner, came out and we discussed what would work best for our home. Jesse is very personable, and by the time we finished discussing everything, I felt like I made a new friend. He is very professional, and while he will try to talk you into some of the best equipment in the business, he isn't pushy, and will work with you on what you feel you want or need. After the TV Lift cabinet arrived. I called AV Performance Innovations back the same day, and Monica made sure I got on their schedule as soon as possible. Within the next week, Jeff and Chris came over to do the installation. Jeff and Chris took off their shoes and came in. I'm sure they ended up leaving with a ton of dog hair on the bottom of their socks (my dog sheds like a banshee). We quickly reviewed my requirements, and both guys jumped right in. While we would think an installation into a TV Lift cabinet wouldn't be too difficult, almost right away Jeff and Chris noticed an issue with lining up the TV mounting holes with the TV Lift. However, they didn't let the problem deter them. They quickly found a solution, and got the TV installed quickly. The guys installed the audio speakers (Sonos), ensured the TV lift worked as advertised, Installed an additional power outlet for the rear speakers, and tested everything to make sure it worked correctly. This was a rather simple installation, but based upon some of their reviews, I'm sure they are just as good at more complicated installations. I honestly feel like I found a friend in the business, and I will be working with these guys any time I'm looking to expand on my home entertainment. They are absolutely the best!"

"I could write a book about how highly I recommend this company and especially the owner Josh. If you want a company that is perceptive, professional and highly client focused you can stop looking right now. I own a couple of small businesses and believe above all that great customer service is the key to building a successful venture. From the first day to the last on the project Josh and his team made sure I was satisfied with every aspect of their work. Their knowledge of technology and ability to explain how it would enhance my new home sold me on several features that I hadn’t planned on. SmartHaven ended up installing five televisions, surround sound, a whole house audio system, Wi-Fi controlled security, as well as, a sleek smart home system that controls and integrates everything. Get quotes from everyone else (I did) and then call Josh. Hiring this company is a no brainer."

"Extremely pleased with Sight and Sound NC! I needed an outdoor TV installed and they were able to do it very quickly and professionally! I had waited days for another company to call me back and Sight and sound had called me less than a day from when I requested a call from them. As a local business owner myself, I love supporting young entrepreneurs willing to hustle and go a great job at a fair price. Highly recommend them!"

"They took the time to measure and mount the TV so that it was properly placed to allow room for sound bar and cable box. They ran strip's to hide wires and added a wall socket to plug everything behind the TV. It's a great and professional job. It was a blessing to have you in my house. STAY BLESSED ?"

FAQs for home theater surround sound system installation projects in Southport, NC

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.
