The Sound Room Makes CE Pro’s Top 100 for 2017

The company ranks No. 31 among the nation’s custom installation companies

June 8, 2017: CHESTERFIELD, Mo. – The Sound Room, St. Louis’ premier home technology retailer, announced the company’s spot on the CE Pro Top 100 list, which ranks among the nation’s top custom integrators. The company was named No. 31, and has been on the list for over a decade.

CE Pro, a leading electronics trade publication, ranked CE Pro 100 integrators based upon its 2017 revenue. During this period, The Sound Room generated more than $7 million in revenue, despite the closing of many consumer big box electronics retailers.

“In our 33 years of business, we’ve seen many big box stores struggle due to their focus of selling boxes,” said David Young, The Sound Room President. “Not only are we expanding our space with the continued growth, but we focus on finding solutions for our customers.”

Father’s Day is right around the corner, and as a dad, you might be making a list of your dream gifts to hand off to your wife and kids. Because, let’s face it.

Did you know that June 1st is Pepper Day? No, not spicy peppers. Not Dr. Pepper. Not the Red Hot Chili Peppers. It was 50 years ago on June 1^st, The Beatles released Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band.  In honor of this momentous occasion, Pro-Ject turntables wanted to celebrate and what better way than by creating two Limited Edition Sgt. Pepper themed turntables.

We’ve seen these beautiful limited edition turntables and you certainly want to add them to your collection! The Essential III Sgt. Pepper’s Drum is an upgraded version of the Essential III model, which incorporates a low mass one-piece tonearm with sapphire bearings, an Ortofon OM10 and an acrylic platter. It undergoes a unique painting process that gives it an embossed feel and looks stunning. We will have the Essential III Sgt. Pepper’s Drum for sale for $499.

The 2Xperience Sgt. Pepper is a VERY limited edition model based on the 2Xperience SB and is equipped with an Ortofon 2M Silver. It includes an EVO 3 Carbon Fiber tonearm, composite platter with integrated mat made from recycled vinyl records for the ultimate record/platter interface and built in SpeedBox. This high end turntable not only looks good, but sounds incredible! We will have it available for $1499 for a limited time!

To commemorate the 50th anniversary, Apple Corps gave Giles Martin, the son of Sir George Martin, complete access to the original tapes and encouraged him to do a proper stereo mix while staying faithful to the Beatles’ original vision. In the new Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band Box set, you can hear the original mono mixes, the new stereo mixes and even a 5.1 version as well as outtakes and bonus tracks!

The Limited Edition Pro-Ject turntables can be purchased while supplies last, so be sure to take advantage of these special turntables while they’re in stock!
