Now that I’ve had a few weeks with my new 2 channel setup, I truly don’t have words to depict how full I am. My system consists of Krell Illusion II preamp, McIntosh MC 611 monoblocks, Marantz network player, Revel Ultima Salon 2’s and Isotec Titan protection.

Read morei recently had the pleasure of working with Ty Coleman and his incredible team at AVA for the installation of outdoor speakers and a complete Savant sound system with lighting controls throughout my home. From start to finish, the experience was nothing short of exceptional!
Ty's professionalism and expertise were evident from our very first consultation. He took the time to understand my needs and offered recommendations that perfectly matched my vision for my home's audio and lighting experience.

Read moreThe guys at AVA came to my home to do a full update and upgrade my Control4 System, upgrade audio, add TV’s and install a whole-house Wi-Fi service matrix with AT&T fiber, while also cutting the cord (cable) and installing wired Roku devices on 7 TV sets. The work went smoothly. Installation was carefully made and the guys cleaned up meticulously. They even helped with the installation of apps and walked me through the Roku features and updated Control4 screens. Everything was tested and worked perfectly and a special effort was made to clean up my multitude of wires and the entire rack of equipment was brought to essential wiring only. A very clean and professional look. A special thank you to Andrew for managing the work and for his care and attention to getting that awesome clean and...
