Like artwork and watching television? Why not do both? If you haven’t seen the Samsung Frame TV it’s worth an audition. This fantastic 4K TV doubles as digital artwork when not in use! This TV makes use of a proximity sensor so it stays off when no one is in the room and then turns on with artwork when someone enters the room. You have the option to load 100s of pieces of art from the TV itself or from Samsung. Want custom artwork? You have the ability to load your own! These amazing pieces of art are available in sizes of 43”, 55” and 65” diagonally.

  • 55” Samsung Frame TV | UN55LS003: $1999.00
  • 43” Samsung Frame TV | UN43LS003 : $1299.00

 

You can also customize the frame on these flat screen televisions. The Frame TV initially comes with a black border but it is easily customizable with a separate white or wood-shaded frame.

There might have been times in your life when you longingly admired a $20 million dollar beach house or did a triple-take at the Bugatti Veyron. Let's face it, everyone loves great stuff, even if it might not be for you. Martin Logan's new speakers, the Neoliths, are an offering in this same class.

  

These speakers are something that could be presented as art forms, let alone incredible examples of acoustic alchemy. We won't go into great detail as Martin Logan has done a fine job in the link below.

http://www.martinlogan.com/neolith/index.php

As much as we'd like to have a pair of these gems, we're going to go without and stare and dream like most people. However, we can let you listen to a pair of Martin Logan speakers that don't cost $80,000/pair (that's right...the Neoliths are $80,000/pair) and that sound AMAZING. Want to see why Martin Logan is revered in the audio industry? Give us a call and let San Diego's leading dealer of Martin Logan present what good audio sounds like.

We just wanted to put out a quick note about the Sonos options for whole-house audio and surround sound. Every time we install one of these set-ups, we are always blown away by how good the systems sound at the price point. If you're not familiar with Sonos, this product:

1) Provides basically the world's best jukebox with millions of songs that can be easily accessed through your iPad, iPhone, tablet or computer.

2) Provides fantastic wireless solutions to let you listen to music anywhere in the home. See the above picture as an example...there is no way to get wires to that TV. However, Sonos' wireless technologies provide an entire world of music options without the need to run wires.

3) It sounds GOOD!

Check out our Houzz page for some more specifics on the Sonos products.

San Diego, 4K TVs are here!

Do you like video and TV? If you are a nerd like us and love today's televisions, you may know that 4K TV has been a hot topic of conversation for some time now. This new format allows for up to 4Xthe resolution of high-definition. Fortunately for all of us, these sets are now HERE!

Some of the main benefits of these televisions have nothing to do with this increase in resolution. The 4K TVs that we are carrying from Samsung and JVC are the best TVs we sell for high-definition, DVDs and regular TV because of the way they are built. They offer features that provide an AWEsome picture such as:

1)  Micro-dimming Ultimate: Samsung's most advanced backlighting technology ever. Offers up to 20X the lighting elements of standard TVs which gives you better blacks/whites and more consistent illumination across the screen.

Samsung's Micro Dimming Ultimate backlight

 

 

2) One Connect box: Samsung feature that divides the TVs inputs/outputs into a separate box. The advantage of this is improved flexibility. If 4K technologies come out that incorporate new features or functionality, having a separate input/output box allows you to JUST replace the box instead of buying a new TV.

Samsung One Connect Box

 

3) Super Resolution Engine: This feature allows for the best video processing when viewing all sources (ex: 4K, DVD, cable, etc.). The benefit to you is that your image will be free from distortion and "artifacts" (blurring and trailing around edges), giving you the best picture possible.

 

These are available in a 55" (Samsung UN55F9000), 65" (Samsung UN65F9000) and a whopping 84" model (JVC RS-840UD). Interested? Come by to take a look or reserve yours today at Aire Theater Designs, San Diego's 4K TV experts.

Do you like video and TV? If you are a nerd like us and love today's televisions, you may know that Samsung generated a lot of anticipation about their new TVs from pre-CES (Consumer Electronics Show) press releases. Here's a quote from Samsung's website:

"The F8500’s unique design is the perfect blend of both aesthetic aspects and functional aspects. Its premium design is created using a single piece of metal. The futuristic design is highlighted by the TV’s dark titan metal color, an ultra-slim frame, naturally curved lines and a unique square-shaped stand, making it appear more like a work of art than a TV. It will be available in 51”, 60” and 64” class screen sizes."

Of course most of us know that words don't mean much and that "the proof's in the pudding". We'll we are happy to say that the pudding is here and it is the most proof-laden pudding we've ever eaten. This TV is RIDICULOUS!!! Here's some highlights:

1) Thin cell structure: Plasma TVs provide color by housing the color components (red/green/blue) in individual cells. By reducing the thickness of the cell walls where color is created, less light is absorbed by the cell walls and the colors illuminate more brightly. This allows Samsung's new TVs to have the brightest picture we've seen yet.

2) SUPER SmartTV: They actually don't call it "SUPER SmartTV", but they might as well. Samsung's new quad-core processors allow the web browser and applications in the TV to run quicker and more efficiently than ever before. This equals less waiting time and more fun.

3) Clone View: You can now zap whatever is on the TV to your Samsung-compatible tablet or phone. This will allow you to go anywhere in the house without leaving the entertainment of the TV behind.

Interested? The new 51F8500, 60F8500 and 64F8500 plasma televisions are now trickling in. Reserve yours today at Aire Theater Designs, San Diego's home for Samsung TVs and home theater products.

If you haven't worked with us before, you may not know about our attention to detail and how we LOVE clean wires. You won't see cords or wires showing when we finish with your home theater installation. Aside from being aesthetically pleasing, this can save your equipment as well. How? Read on.

One of our clients just had a break-in at their home. The thieves smashed a window and tried to take the home theater gear. What stopped them?

a) Incredibly giant dog with teeth and a mouth like a bear trap?

b) Alarm system with siren and your own personal policeman?

c) Super clean and tight home theater wiring with all cables labeled, zip tied and velcroed?

C it is! Our wiring kept all of the surround sound equipment from being yanked out of the cabinet. Moral of the story: If you want a home theater install project with clean looking wiring that defeats thieves and sends them home with nothing, give Aire Theater Designs a call!

Q: How do you get this guy's seal of approval?

A: Add seat shakers to your couch or theater seating for an extra surround sound KICK that puts you into the movie!

Here's how they work...We take a piece called a tactile transducer (looks like a metal apple) and attach it inside or to the framing of your seats. We then hook up a dedicated amplifier to this transducer that gets housed with the rest of your equipment. Now when you turn on a movie and a dinosaur jumps around or you're watching your favorite Top Gun scene, your chair shakes along with the movie. The sensation is REALLY impressive and it will take your suround sound experience to another level. We just installed these for our client Larry and he LOVES them.

We are carrying these from the company Earthquake. Typical seat shaker packages will start at around $999.99 installed and go up from there. Interested in kicking your surround sound experience up a notch? Try adding some Earthquake seat shakers from your favorite San Diego audio/video company, Aire Theater Designs.
