A wise man once said, “It’s the simple things in life that are the most extraordinary.” You know, I have to agree. While I am always impressed with the groundbreaking technology designs our technicians create and implement, I tend to gravitate towards projects that showcase our company values such as honesty and quality.

Recently, we were called to gentleman’s home who was looking to overhaul his home entertainment system. While evaluating the site and existing technology, we stumbled upon a startling discovery. The system was wired extremely poorly, making it very difficult to add new components.

To remain true to our mission of providing superior products and advice, we proposed a wire-manage of all the low-voltage components.

As you can see below, the before and after picture are quite amazing.

Unfortunately, this is not the first time we have discovered a system that was this poorly wired. Last year, my colleague, Gary Macchi, ran into a similar issue when installing an outdoor TV at the home of a client.

Sadly, many area installers do not have low-voltage experience, resulting in insufficient wiring and underperforming systems. At The Sound Room, our team not only understands low-voltage wiring, but they perform installs like this on a weekly basis, making them true experts in the home technology industry.

By putting our 100+ years of combined experience to work, we created a wiring plan that rectified the mess of wires, increasing the overall functionality of the system and making it easier to service in the future.

While the scope of the project is hardly complex, its impact will be felt by the homeowner for years to come.

Oh, and before I forget—the homeowner was very pleased with our work. He appreciated our candor when discussing the issues with his system and was impressed that we were able to re-wire the system in such a timely manner.

He looks forward to working with The Sound Room in the future!
