James Small Aperture Architectural Speakers Deliver a New Level of Sound Quality

As designers and architects, you are acutely aware of how home technology can impact aesthetics. Your clients want the latest smart home features and audio and video systems, but they want them to discreetly integrate into the overall design and décor of the home. 

For years, architectural speakers filled the need for homeowners that preferred their sound heard but not seen. But more discerning homeowners and designers often yearned for an even more integrated look with high-end audio performance. James Loudspeaker is an architectural speaker company that saw the need and developed a new series of speakers with unprecedented design integration and sound quality – the Small Aperture Series.

Read on below to learn more about the Small Aperture line and how you can integrate whole-house audio for your Charlotte, NC projects that dovetail neatly into your designs.

Go Beyond the Traditional Speaker System with Outdoor Audio/Video

If you want to bring energy and high-quality listening to your backyard, a portable speaker or old boom box radio aren’t your only options. Coastal Source, a landscape lighting and audio manufacturer, builds weather-resistant speakers that stay installed outside year after year. Select playlists and albums on your phone or even put on a record inside, and rich music fills your lawn, garden, and patio.

Coastal Source can’t be found in a big-box store or ordered online because a landscape audio system requires the careful design and installation of a professional. The results? There’s nothing like your favorite music wafting through the air while the grill or fire pit crackles.

To see how an outdoor audio/video installation works and enhances your Charlotte, NC, property, read on below. 

Comparing Two Sony4K Projectors for Your Home Media Room   

Movie lovers and TV buffs choose to install projectors formany reasons. First,you can enjoy screen dimensions vastly larger than most TVs, then retract it into the ceiling when it’s not in use. Projectors allow for dynamic, multipurpose spaces, where in one moment you’re chatting and playing games with friends and in the next, create a home theater setting. 

But not all projectors produce the same image quality. Some projectors use an internal lamp as the video’s light source, while newer models use a laser light source. The difference between a lamp or laser creates different visual results—and the amount taken out of your wallet. 

Sony, one of the most highly regarded projector manufacturers worldwide, builds both a laser and lamp 4K SXRD projector for home media rooms. We’ll compare the qualities of both so you can find the best fit for your Charlotte, NC home.
