Perfect Your Speaker Placement and Setup

The ultimate home audio distribution involves both optimal equipment and placement.

You can choose from several options that can accommodate different parts of your home.

Well-designed standing loudspeakers enhance any media room or dedicated home cinema in which you want to show off your speakers.

Add Comfort and Luxury

With just a simple press of a button, you can lower and raise shades within just a few seconds. If you have shades that cover large bay windows or out-of-reach ones, you won’t have to stretch to get their shades lowered as the sun moves throughout the day. Your motorized shading will automate that function.

By scheduling your shades or creating “scenes,” you can have them accommodate your daily plans and adjust to your specific needs as they change. Set up a “movie night” scene that lowers your blackout shades in your media room or home theater, while also dimming your smart lighting and setting your temperature to just the right degree.
