B&W Bowers & Wilkins speakers in Menlo Park, California (CA)

Sound Cinema Integration is Menlo Park, California (CA) source for B&W Bowers & Wilkins…For more than 40 years, the B&W Bowers & Wilkins name has been synonymous with the word “professional.” The business was built on a close affiliation with professional sound engineers, who have exacting demands for not just the performance of their loudspeakers, but also attributes like reliability. (A studio monitor has to survive loads of abuse in its lifetime.) When B&W’s classic 801 speaker was introduced in 1979, it soon became the reference speaker in nearly all of the world’s classical recording studios, including EMI Abbey Road, Decca and Deutsche Grammophon.

From the beginning, discerning audio enthusiasts in Menlo Park, California (CA) and the world over followed the lead of the professionals, flocking to B&W for their home systems. The company has continued to innovate, introducing game-changing products like the legendary Nautilus and, more recently, the world’s first Diamond-Dome tweeter. And they’ve expanded their reach into home theater, becoming a preeminent manufacturer of in-wall and in-ceiling speakers for home and professional use.

Our 20 plus year relationship with B&W has been pure pleasure. Their commitment to customer service is without equal, another facet of the professionalism on which they’ve staked their reputation. Being chosen to represent them in Menlo Park, California (CA) and the entire Bay Area is a vote of confidence from a company we respect highly.

Here are some photos of a job we just completed.  This was a complete overhaul of home electronics. New flat panel TV’s, new Surround Sound Systems, new distributed audio around the house and new control!  Simple and elegant.

The Family Room features a 60 inch Pioneer plasma, B&W in-wall speakers, Artison in-wall subwoofer. The electronics are Marantz. Power conditioning by Furman and 1 button operation by Crestron.

The Plasma is mounted on a tilting bracket to ensure a great picture when seated.

We added new B&W in-ceiling speakers in 3 locations in the house.

The Master Suite was kept simple with the use of a B&W Panorama. This Integrated Audio Video Surround Sound System and the TV are all you see. This system is custom programmed for one touch operation using a Crestron PMC-2 remote.

Here is a wonderful play room for the kids that also doubles as a family home theater.  We installed a B&W 600 Series speaker assortment and wired back to the closet for the safe and out of site electronics installation.  In the closet lives a Marantz Surround Sound Receiver, a Marantz Blu Ray DVD as well as DVR, Wi and PS3.  All protected via Furman AC Power Conditioning. One button operation is provided via custom programmed remote control from Crestron.

Family Home Theater and Play Room

Here are some photos of a project we just finished work on in Ukiah.

We pre-wired this beautiful home 6 weeks ago adding a ton of wire for the whole house distributed audio system, the outdoor sound and the home theater pictured here.
Our special thanks go out to John Wascisin. You can see his contribution in the great room design but what you can’t see is his help around the job. It made this home a joy to work on as well as a beautiful finished project.

The Nuvision 52 inch LCD HDTV will hang here.

Better looking when finished! B&W CM-7's and matching CMC-2 center. Marantz Blu Ray and DVR are hidden in the corner cabinet. Ruth guarding the entire installation!

The back of the room where the electronics will be installed.

and now full of good things. A Marantz SR7002 Surround Sound Receiver, Rotel RB-1562 Power Amp to power the distributed audio around the house and outdoors. Crestron PMC-2 and I-Pod Docking Station.

The Dining Room

Music in the kitchen!

B&W WM-6 weather proof monitors sound great in this installation!

The Bowers & Wilkins CM Family of Speakers

To quote Thomas J. Norton:

“Some home theater speaker packages strive for maximum output at the expense of naturalness. Others add a biting edge to everything for excitement that’s not in the program material. They produce boom instead of bass, or they sacrifice natural music reproduction on the altar of overhyped, explosive sound effects.”

“None of these things describe this B&W system. They key word for the CM9 Theatre is balance. It’s not the highest-end system B&W makes — otherwise why would there be the 800 series? But it does offer a balance of strengths on both music and movies, at a price that isn’t outrageous. And it’s a pleasure to live with over the long haul.”
