Whole Home Entertainment System Update: Brookfield, WI

BC Neville Tech was contacted by the homeowner of this project with an existing multi-zone home entertainment system installed in the early 2000s and was subsequently added to several times since.

The issues of this system were very similar to what we come across regularly: technology and functionality limitations due to the age of the system. This system also had features/equipment that needed to be fixed.

Also, specific to this project, the systems did not work cohesively together due to the home entertainment system being completed in numerous phases with several owners over 20 years. They did not optimize the sound or video of the equipment installed.

BC Neville Tech is experienced at completely transforming a system like this into a cohesive, easy-to-operate system that sounds and looks great! This client was over the moon with the result on all these fronts!

Please see this client’s testimonials of their experience while working with BC Neville Tech’s experienced staff and tech experts!

Why it’s a good idea to upgrade your current home entertainment system

In today’s fast-paced world, having a home entertainment system has become a necessity for many households. With technological advancements, the options for home entertainment have expanded, providing us with immersive experiences that were once unimaginable. While it may seem tempting to stick with your current setup, upgrading your home entertainment system can bring a whole new level of enjoyment to your living space.

Enhanced Audio and Visual Experience

One of the primary reasons to upgrade your home entertainment system is to enhance your audio and visual experience. Technology has come a long way, and modern systems offer high-definition displays and crisp sound quality that can transport you into another world. Whether you enjoy watching movies, playing video games, or listening to music, upgrading your system will provide you with a more immersive and realistic experience. The latest televisions and sound systems offer features like 4K resolution, HDR, Dolby Atmos, and surround sound, which can greatly enhance your overall enjoyment.

Access to a Wide Range of Content

With the rise of streaming services and online platforms, there is an abundance of content available at our fingertips. Upgrading your home entertainment system opens up a world of possibilities, allowing you to access a wide range of content from various sources. Whether you want to binge-watch your favorite TV shows, stream movies, or explore the vast collection of documentaries, an upgraded system will provide you with the necessary tools to do so. Additionally, many modern systems come with smart features and voice assistants, making it easier than ever to navigate through different platforms and find the content you love.

Future-Proofing Your Setup

Technology is constantly evolving, and what may be cutting-edge today could become outdated in a few years. By upgrading your home entertainment system, you are future-proofing your setup, ensuring that you stay up-to-date with the latest advancements. This means that you won’t have to worry about missing out on new features, improved performance, or compatibility issues with emerging technologies. Investing in an upgraded system now will save you from the hassle of having to replace individual components later on, as you would be starting with a more advanced and versatile foundation.

Upgrading your current home entertainment system is a decision that can greatly enhance your overall viewing and listening experience. With enhanced audio and visual capabilities, access to a wide range of content, and future-proofing your setup, an upgraded system can bring a new level of enjoyment to your home. So, don’t hesitate to invest in the latest technology and create a captivating entertainment space that will leave you and your loved ones in awe.

About four years ago, BC Neville Tech was lucky to be brought into this project. The client had a high-end Sunfire Subwoofer, which was not outputting sound. We attempted to service the subwoofer, but it did not prove cost-effective. So the client opted to replace the Subwoofer and add a second.

BC Neville Tech’s experienced system design staff worked with the client to identify the ideal subwoofers for his system. At this time, the client also decided to upgrade his old Denon Theater receiver with a new Yamaha RXA2080 smart receiver with MusicCast. The client’s major improvements were smart control through Yamaha’s MusicCast smart control app, current generation HDMI, arc capability, and added wattage/amplification.

These upgrades were completed, and the client was extremely happy with the system’s enhanced functionality and controllability. Approximately six months later, the client reached out and said he wanted more power. The power he was seeking for his Polk tower package would be equivalent to a live music space. The only way to achieve the client’s request was to add separate power amps.

Working with BC Neville Tech’s experienced system design team, all separate amplifier options were considered. The final two considerations were Macintosh Amplifiers or LEA Amplifiers. After careful consideration, the client liked the wattage and control features the LEA amplifiers offered.

We went with three separate amps: two 4420 4-Channel IQ Amplifiers and one 2420 2-Channel IQ Amplifier. Before the new amplifiers went in, the client requested that the cabling and equipment (including the new amplifiers) be moved to the basement.

At this time, all speakers and subwoofers were required to use 14-2 HD speaker cabling, and a new 48G Optical HDMI cable was pulled. Using the preamps of the Yamaha RXA-2080 with the power of the LEA separate amplifiers was exactly what the client was looking for.

BC Neville Tech delivered concert-quality volume and clarity at a private home on Pewaukee Lake. If you are looking for high-level audio/visual design and integration at its best, please reach out to BC Neville Tech’s design team. We would be pleased to develop a system your family will truly love!

Great Room & Master Bedroom Home Theater System: Pewaukee, WI

We had fun installing surround sound in a great room and master bedroom, along with outdoor audio, for this Pewaukee home.

Our client had just purchased this home in the Deer Haven Subdivision in Pewaukee and wanted to complete the family’s home entertainment system before moving in. We see this often at BC Neville Tech. Clients are planning to include technology, security, and home theater systems into the build more and more often.

Our experienced sales/design staff had several phone conversations to identify the family’s primary needs for home entertainment and low voltage cabling. We also met on-site before closing the final design.

This client has a double fireplace with no existing cabling and wanted to have both sound and a television mounted above the fireplace on both sides.

In the Master Bedroom, we completed the necessary low voltage audio/visual cabling and added a 55″ LG Nano Cell HD TV on a Peerless articulating arm wall mount. Lastly, we mounted a KEF soundbar to deliver excellent space, filling music in their bedroom.

On the opposite side, in the Great Room, we completed cabling for a new 65″ LG NanoCell HD TV on an articulating Peerless wall mount. The family’s primary gathering spot; we wanted to accompany the new TV with a great-sounding surround sound system.

We certainly accomplished this with a JBL 5.1 surround array featuring a TV-mounted soundbar, floor-standing subwoofer, and wall-mounted left and right rear speakers, together delivering the ideal atmosphere to enjoy their entertainment as a family.

Finally, we installed one pair of 6.5″ Proficient Rock Speakers flanking the client’s patio. These all-weather speakers remain outside year-round and Sound great for music or listening to the game on your patio.

All of the entertainment equipment within the home is powered and controlled by a Yamaha RX-A2 : 2 Zone smart surround sound receiver located in the basement. The system can be entirely operated remotely with the client’s smartphone or tablet using the Yamaha MusicCast App or the supplied remote control.

The client was delighted with the finished system and looks forward to years of family entertainment.

Thank you, Mike! We at BC Neville Tech hope you enjoy your new home and home entertainment system for years to come!
