Audio is something that almost every homeowner expects to enjoy to a certain extent in their home these days. Whether it be a single room or two of high-quality stereo music, an entire house filled with background music, a multi-channel home theater room, or an outdoor living space, we help our clients figure out what their audio expectations are in terms of the sound quality, speaker quantity, and overall budget. One of our most trusted and recommended brands is Triad Speakers.

The Latest & Greatest in Consumer TVs 8K and 4K Resolution
As manufacturers continue to elevate and up-their-game, the bar continues to be raised for premium visual and sound quality. Consumer electronics are ever-changing, and TVs are always one of the most popular categories. At CES in Las Vegas, Sony has shared what’s on tap for 2020.
The company announced new LEDs and OLEDs in their various makes and models, which will be offered in a full range of sizes. The lineup features proprietary technologies previously only found in Sony’s MASTER Series models. You can expect changes like default optimization of HD, 4K, and 4K HDR video content quality from the popular streaming service.
Technology Customized. The Premier Group Specified and Designed Custom Technology Solutions for this Geist Home
Every September, our team attends the annual CEDIA Expo, which is the common hub where more than 20,000 home technology pros and over 500 exhibitors travel to see the latest and greatest in, as CEDIA puts it, “making smart homes genius!” As we gear up for the Trade Show, it’s an opportunity for us to learn, meet different manufacturers, and to make sure that we bring the right team of vendors and products on-board as we return to our day-to-day design and product specification work. Many products are simply new releases to the existing lineup that we already specify, however, a handful of brands that we team-up with are because of their high-level of design or capabilities to customize solutions for each project.
Many times when building a home, you might find yourself in a situation where it’s difficult to achieve some of the details and technology while keeping to a tasteful design aesthetic. Perhaps you want a TV in a space where you don’t have a wall. Or, you might have minimal wall space if your home is designed with lots of windows, but you have too many “wants” to fit on the available space. Our philosophy is that you should rarely have to pass on making your home just as you dreamt it to be. That is why we partner with the best brands in the business that have full-custom capabilities; two of which are Seura and Leon.
