Home Theater & AV Installation — Common Questions

Most dedicated home theater projects range from $15,000 to $80,000 depending on room size, equipment tier, seating, and acoustic treatment. A media room conversion (existing space, no construction) typically starts around $8,000–$15,000. We provide detailed, itemized quotes at no charge.

A media room in an existing finished space typically takes one to three days. A full dedicated theater — pre-wire, construction coordination, trim-out, and calibration — is usually spread across multiple visits over a few weeks, working around the construction timeline.

We work with Epson, JVC, Sony, and BenQ — matched to the room's throw distance, ambient light conditions, and resolution goals. We also install Screen Innovations, Elite Screens, and Stewart Filmscreen fixed-frame, motorized, and acoustically transparent screens.

Yes. Living room and media room surround sound installs are a significant part of what we do. Whether it's a 5.1 system in a living room, a sound bar + sub + surrounds setup, or a full Dolby Atmos configuration — we design it to the room.

Never. Every job is done by Kelly, Billy, or Julian — the three people on this team. We don't bring in outside labor. That's how we've operated since 2001.

Yes. We come to you. Most AV and home theater systems need to be seen in context — room dimensions, wall construction, ceiling height, existing equipment — to quote accurately. We don't give estimates over the phone without seeing the space.

We serve San Antonio, Boerne, Bulverde, Canyon Lake, Helotes, Stone Oak, Timberwood Park, New Braunfels, and surrounding areas in the Texas Hill Country.

Yes — new construction is a significant part of what we do. We work with custom home builders on pre-wire, rough-in, trim-out, programming, and homeowner walkthroughs. We also work directly with homeowners building custom homes.

You make the introduction to your homeowner. We handle everything after — design meeting, pre-wire scheduling, rough-in, trim-out, programming, calibration, and the homeowner walkthrough. Post-move-in questions come to us, not you. We currently have nine active builder relationships. The longest started in 2009.

Yes. We work with your site supervisor and schedule pre-wire around your framing and rough-in windows. We're familiar with how custom home builds run in San Antonio and the Hill Country.

Yes. We service and repair AV systems regardless of who installed them. We diagnose the problem, tell you what it takes to fix it, and give you an honest assessment of whether it's worth fixing.

Yes. We see this regularly. We can assess the system, troubleshoot what's wrong, and either fix it or give you an honest recommendation on what's worth keeping.

Often yes. Sonos and similar wireless systems can be added to an existing home with minimal disruption. In-ceiling speakers in finished spaces sometimes require fishing wire — we minimize drywall impact and tell you upfront what's involved.

We install weatherproof in-ground, surface-mount, and rock-style speakers for patios, pool decks, and backyards. All outdoor equipment is rated for the Texas climate — heat, humidity, and UV exposure.

Yes. We ceiling-mount projectors under covered patios, run the wire clean through the structure, and pair it with a screen and outdoor speakers. A proper outdoor theater experience — not a portable setup.
