Here are a few ” after ” shots.

Our Burlingame whole house upgrade is complete. Here is the Family Room cabinet. It holds not only the Surround Sound System for the room but also all the electronics for the rest of the home. Marantz, Furman, Crestron, Spatz, Artison and more.

The Master Bedroom is beautiful. A complete HD Home Theater all hidden away. All controlled via Crestron touchscreen. It's as easy to operate as it is good sounding!

All the speakers in this home are B&W. In-wall or in-ceiling it just doesn't get any better!

2 I-Pod docking stations, FM radio, Blu Ray and 2 Comcast cable boxes are our sources. All accessible and controllable from any room in the house!

Here are the promised “before pictures. This is a beautiful Burlingame Hills home. Large, multi floor with lots of rooms, all with purpose.  We are setting about a complete update.  Two home theaters, complete whole house audio and HD (1080p) video distribution and a new control system. A couple of stand alone TV’s and outdoor sound.

As you will see, we have removed all the old volume controls along with the old distributed audio system. This will be replaced with Crestron keypads, touch screens and remotes. All the old speakers, both in-wall and in-ceiling will be removed and replaced with B&W in-wall and in-ceiling speakers for superb sound though out the home.

When we are done this home will sing!

The cabinet has been emptied and all the wire for the entire audio / video distribution system is being re-routed here. The entire home electronics system will center here. This area will also be the center of viewing for the family room.

The beautiful Master Bedroom will have a Panasonic Pro 50 inch plasma above the fireplace. In-ceiling B&W speakers, an Artison in wall subwoofer and Crestron automation will leave this room free of the clutter a home theater can create. Great sound, stunning picture and 1 button operation!

All the old style knob based volume controls will be replaced with Crestron keypads, Crestron touch screens or in the case of the guest rooms new Decora slide volume controls. Most rooms will have complete control of the entire system!

Two audio components that network with home PCs and stream Internet radio. Both also control media on a connected iPod or other USB device.

The RDG-1520 digital Internet tuner, features FM tuner, streaming of 15,000 Internet radio stations without a networked PC, and streaming of music stored on a networked PC equipped with UPnP and Windows Media Player 11. This product is slated to sell for $999.00

It is a streaming media/CD/FM stereo receiver, In addition to being a fine stereo receiver with built-in CD player,  it features the  ability to stream Internet radio and music stored on a networked PC.

The device’s CD section uses 24 bit/192kHz DACs, and a very capable 2×100-watt amp section ready for the demands of a 4 ohm load.
