As Featured on Designing Spaces
It is one thing to tell people we’re experts in smart home integration; it’s another thing entirely when the pros at Designing Spaces come knocking to show the rest of the country how it’s done.
We were honored to be featured on this long-running home improvement series. The segment gave us a chance to pull back the curtain and show viewers what we do every day: transform ordinary houses into intelligent, connected homes where technology finally starts serving the people, not the other way around.
Let’s be honest: your home is already "connected." Between your watch, your oven, the grill on the deck, and your sound system, you have plenty of gadgets. The problem isn't a lack of tech; it’s the frustration of trying to manage it all.
At Audio Video Specialists, we don't just add more devices to your life. We give you a single, seamless way to harness them. That’s the story Designing Spaces wanted to tell, and it’s the mission we live by.
If you caught the episode, you saw that we aren't just here to sell you the latest AV gear. As a family-owned and operated business, our philosophy is built on personalized service.
It Starts with a Conversation, Not a Catalog
One of the most compelling moments in the Designing Spaces segment was watching the Audio Video Specialists team in the earliest stages of a project—sitting down with clients, asking questions, and truly listening. In an industry where many companies lead with product specs and price sheets, AVS leads with curiosity. They want to know how you live, how you entertain, what frustrates you about your current setup, and where you see yourself in five years.
This consultative approach isn't just good customer service—it's the foundation of every system they build. By investing real time with clients upfront, the team ensures that the final installation reflects not only the client's immediate needs but their long-term vision. And when a client's budget doesn't allow for everything at once, Audio Video Specialists finds ways to build the system in phases—strategically sequenced so that every component purchased today is part of the bigger picture, and nothing needs to be replaced down the road to get where the client ultimately wants to be.
As the segment highlighted, creating a personalized system starts with education. Before a single wire is pulled or a speaker is mounted, AVS walks clients through the possibilities—showing them how their space can be transformed to fit their lifestyle in ways they may never have imagined. It's this blend of technical expertise and genuine care that turns first-time clients into lifelong ones.
Every Moment, Immersive
Whether it's movie night or game day, a custom home theater or whole-house audio system makes every moment immersive and this was a central theme of the Designing Spaces feature. Audio Video Specialists doesn't just hang a screen on a wall and call it a day. We design purpose-built entertainment experiences that transform how families gather, celebrate, and unwind.
The episode highlighted some of the more creative installations that we have delivered, including homes fitted with invisible speakers throughout the entire first floor. The result is remarkable: the homeowner sees no speakers anywhere, no grilles on the ceiling, no boxes on shelves and yet rich, full sound fills every room. It's a solution that preserves the clean aesthetic of a beautifully designed home while delivering audio quality that rivals visible, traditional speaker systems.
For dedicated theater spaces, Audio Video Specialists brings a cinematic sensibility to every detail—acoustic treatments engineered to optimize the room's sound signature, premium projection and display systems sized and calibrated for the space, and immersive surround sound configurations that place you at the center of the action. Combined with smart automation, a single command can dim the lights, lower the shades, power on the system, and set the volume—transforming a living space into a private cinema in seconds.
Whole-house audio extends that entertainment experience beyond any single room. With distributed audio zones throughout the home, music becomes an ambient presence playing softly in the master bath during a morning routine, filling the kitchen during dinner prep, and energizing the patio for weekend gatherings. Every zone can be controlled independently or grouped together, and because everything is tied into the automation system, switching between sources, adjusting volume, or queuing up a new playlist is effortless from any interface in the home.
What Our Clients Are Saying
The Designing Spaces segment also featured a client testimonial that speaks volumes about the AVS experience. When asked why he chose Audio Video Specialists, the client didn't hesitate: he chose our team because of our transparency, our attention to detail, and our willingness to help him achieve his goals. From the very beginning, the process was straightforward and collaborative, a "match made in heaven," as he described it.
That kind of feedback isn't an outlier. As the episode revealed, more than 75% of our clients are repeat clients. In an industry where many companies move on after the final installation, that number tells a powerful story about trust, quality, and lasting relationships. People come back because they know AVS genuinely cares, not just about closing a sale, but about delivering an experience that continues to exceed expectations long after the system is up and running.
The Experience Doesn't End at Installation
One of the standout details from the Designing Spaces segment was the emphasis Audio Video Specialists places on what happens after the equipment is installed. For the AVS family, the experience is everything and that means making sure every client walks away feeling completely confident in their new system.
After every installation, our team conducts thorough, hands-on training with the homeowner, walking through every feature, every interface, and every scenario—from everyday use to hosting a party. We don't leave until the client fully understands the ins and outs of our system and feels empowered to get the most out of it.
And when questions come up down the road, as they inevitably do, Audio Video Specialists offers 24/7 support for any technical issues with the systems we've installed. That means if it's 1:00 on a Saturday afternoon and you're hosting a party and something doesn't turn on quite right, you can pick up the phone and reach a real person who knows your system and can help troubleshoot it in real time. It's the kind of support that transforms us from a technology provider into a true partner.
