Audio and Video must be matched not only to one another and to the cables and wires but most importantly to the clients needs, likes, dislikes, and budget. Many of the systems we see have one or two of the most basic problems inherent in them.

The first problem
is poor sound quality, which shows up in overly bright and
annoying sound that can only be listened to for short periods
of time. When hearing these systems at loud volumes (this
is often times the choice for movie watching), these systems
become "assaulting" and just plain "noisy" at best!
On the video side, we find overly bright pictures with
what people think is great detail BUT what is commonly referred
to industry wide as "video noise". Also we find just too
much light coming off of the screen which doesn't create
for a relaxing experience. True quality video looks natural
and very realistic as opposed to surreal and blindingly
bright.
Upon initial view of a system like this, one would say
"wow," but to live with one of these systems on a daily
basis is another thing entirely. We have found that as clients
become more educated about correct video and audio, they
are much happier with systems that are balanced. Additionally,
they are able to stay with their systems for unheard of
lengths of time, instead of hearing the famous phrase "turn
it down" or "turn it off" from others in the room!

A good designer will create a picture that has
the correct amount of brightness and detail, not by using the
brightness control, but by choosing the appropriate products,
cabling, wiring, and other important elements for the job. Additionally,
the "good designer" will find suitable and relaxing audio to accompany
the video portion of the system, so that they work in harmony
as opposed to against one another.
These are two of the most important elements to an entertainment
system that will make a client exclaim that they "love" their
Home Theater or Media Room,
as opposed to the clients who simply say that they "have" a Home
Theater or Media Room merely as a trophy
in their list of possessions
