The power of Crestron Home….

Welcome back. This is the final blog on this particular subject, and we hope it has been a valuable tool for you. 

In Part One of this series, we discussed the necessity for you, the homeowner, to take a very active role in ensuring that your AV Integration Consultant is hired at the same time that you hire your architect, interior designer, and builder in order that all planning for your smart home technology be initiated at the earliest stage of the process.

One of our latest projects that we completed is an amazing outdoor HiFi audio system coupled with a 60" TV on an articulating wall mount so they can view the TV on their porch or while they're in the pool or Jaccuzzi! They also have Smart Device control over their audio system and the cameras monitoring the backyard area. So while you're lounging, and you want to change what you're listening to you can simply pick up your phone and change it! It also enables you to monitor your kids playing from anywhere you're at!

All this capability is made possible utilizing Sonance's SLS High Fidelity outdoor audio system. The system is described as a, "Scalable outdoor speaker system that delivers perfectly-even coverage and unbelievable sound quality throughout any sized space. Described by one critic as outdoor sound to “knock their socks off”, SLS provides jaw-dropping sonic performance from small satellite speakers and below-ground subwoofers that are hidden completely out of sight amongst plants and under foliage." We utilized HEOS AMP's and LINK's, which enable you to stream various music sources seamlessly and intuitively, such as HiFi service Tidal, Pandora, XMSirius, Spotify, Rhapsody, Tunein, your phone, local computer or a USB drive or hard drive and those are just the most popular ones, for the audio control. The surveillance is handled by SpyClops surveillance. While the video side utilizes Samsung, Vizio and Celerity fiber optic HDMI cables.
