Eric did a superb job setting me up with a large Sonos Amp-based system, both indoor and outdoor plus lots of hard wiring. He is responsive and a good guy, but his best qualities are his honesty and his perfectionism. He wants the job done right, he has high standards, and he tells the truth. Can’t think of higher praise — definitely recommend!

Eric is AMAZING at what he does. I needed a very special setup because I do audio monitoring over ethernet at my studio (in a building next to but not connected to my house) and needed two separate networks that were both secure. He ran about 20 custom made cables according to my schematic that was incredibly weird and difficult but tailored to my particular situation. It all works perfectly, and there’s not an inch of unused cable anywhere or showing. The ethernet jacks in the walls are all level and tidy. And, he cleaned up like it was his home! I am incredibly impressed by his work. I waited about 6 months after discussing my project with 25~ other possible techs and he was the only person who was knowledgeable enough to even approach my project. He’s VERY busy (which is a double edged sword if you’re an impatient guy like me) but he’s worth the wait. You get what you’re willing to wait for in life!!! Also, he’s incredibly affordable for the high quality custom work he provides. My house was built in the 50’s and it’s always a pain to navigate the little awkward stuff they used to do, but it was not a problem. Sidenote: Eric is a little chatty (which I don’t mind at all; I love to hear stories and stuff) but he didn’t charge me for any time we spent talking about Star Trek 🖖 or audio gear from the old days. If you’re not looking for a conversation during the work, I’d let him know up front! Nicest guy in the world, and I’m going to have him come back and set up a full monitoring system at the beginning of 2022 when we build the next monitoring room! Thank you Eric!!!

Eric was phenomenal! We’ll be a customer of his for life. He worked very efficiently setting up our new tv, receiver, and universal remote. Eric truly went above and beyond for us and was kind enough to patiently walk me through our new set up - even after he left. We’re very thankful we found Eric and would highly recommend his services to anyone.

Eric came out on the agreed upon time and date and got us all set up with our audio needs. He re-wired old speakers and hooked up our system which is exactly what we wanted. Thanks Eric!

  I work with home owners, contractors, architects. My first priority is finding out what there known and unknown needs are and budget expectations. I try to figure out who will use the equipment and how. It's an interview, basically.
