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.

In September, it becomes obvious that there is one thing that is important in life. FOOTBALL. As good as high-definition is today, why don't you enjoy the game at home with instant replay, sodas that don't cost $20.00/each and some GREAT audio and video? We'll handle the speakers and TV. Check out some of our Sony TVs for the ultimate in picture quality. Did we mention that they are up to $1000.00 off? We have already sold out of some of our latest specials. NOTE: No rainchecks on close-out deals. When they're gone, they're gone.

The term "Home Automation" gets thrown around a lot these days when people are talking about technology. Here's a simple example of what Aire Theater Designs can do with home automation and you:

Right before you get home from work you push a button on your phone that says "Coming Home". This in turn:

1) Turns on your outdoor lights and interior walkway lighting.

2) Turns on your air conditioning (which is great with our recent weather).

3) Turns on your favorite Pandora radio station.

4) Pops up with a view of your home on security cameras so you can make sure all is safe before entering the house (and that your kids have cleaned their rooms).

A home automation system like this also allows you to further control all of your house systems such as:

Home Entertainment: Control your home theater, whole-house music and all rooms of audio/video from any area in the house. Never juggle ten remotes again to make things work. Total Control allows you to use ONE remote to control everything in the house!

Lighting Control: Want to push one button at night to turn off all the lights in the house? No problem. How about coming home from work to a completely lighted home? Yup. Want your lights to turn on during the evening hours and to turn off in the morning? With Total Control, all of these lighting situations are easily solved with the touch of a finger.

Security: URC Total Control allows you to monitor your home from anywhere in the world on your computer, tablet or phone. Feel comfortable knowing that your house is monitored securely and easily.

Shade and Curtain Control: By partnering with Lutron, our home automation systems by URC Total Control and RTI allow you to adjust the shades and curtains anywhere in the house with a single button push. Combine simple control with elegant shade solutions in different colors and styles.

Sound interesting? If you're looking for home automation in San Diego, contact an ATD representative today with questions and let So Cals home automation leader show you how we can enhance your life and decor through technology.

P.S. NOTE AS OF 07/17/2014. We just got word that there will be BIG savings coming up on 07/20/2014 on Sony's 900 and 950 series XBR TVs. Save from $700-$1000 on the best TVs on today's market. Interested? Call a ATD salesperson for details!

Ladies and gentlemen...after parting ways with Sony years ago, we've brought them back into the fold. We are proud to add Sony's line of TVs, audio/video receivers and hi-resolution music players to our line-up. Why did we do this? We inspected some of their new high-end TVs a few months ago and were BLOWN AWAY by the color accuracy, black levels and realism. Their best televisions are our new reference standard. Here's a brief overview:

1) Televisions: We're especially proud of Sony's best TVs that they call their "950" sets. Sony's 85" offering @ $24,999.99 and their 65" @ $6999.99 have no equal on the market. Here's a link:

http://store.sony.com/84.6-diag-x950b-flagship-4k-ultra-hd-tv-zid27-XBR85X950B/cat-27-catid-XBR-4K-Ultra-HD-TVs?_t=pfm%3Dcategory

For our clients that want great but want to save some money from the flagship models above, Sony's "900" series still blows away any competition. Their 79" TV @ $7999.99, 65" TV @ $4999.99 and 55" TV @ $3999.99 have amazing colors and contrast.

http://store.sony.com/64.5-diag-x900b-4k-ultra-hd-tv-zid27-XBR65X900B/cat-27-catid-XBR-4K-Ultra-HD-TVs?_t=pfm%3Dcategory

http://store.sony.com/54.6-diag-x900b-premium-4k-ultra-tv-zid27-XBR55X900B/cat-27-catid-XBR-4K-Ultra-HD-TVs?_t=pfm%3Dcategory

As of this writing, Sony is the only manufacturer that offers 4K content so you can view the latest and best in today's TV technology. This is another reason we brought them into the fold.

2) Sony has also added some Hi-Resolution music players to their line-up. In a nutshell, these pieces allow you to listen to music from your computer or streaming services with MUCH better quality. If you have ever listened to a CD and then listened to the same track from iTunes, Pandora, etc. you will know that music sources from your computer do not sound good...AT ALL. Sony has changed this with their addition. Here's a link:

We'll also be adding Sony projectors to our line-up and we will have them on display. Interested in some new audio/video toys? Call San Diegos' Sony dealer and see what all the hubbub's about.

Sometimes in life we take things for granted. I have to say that after living in San Diego for 35 years, I take the weather for granted. I realized how good we have it here when I moved from San Diego to coastal Northern California. Once you do this and you spend week after week shrouded in fog, you will never spend a sunny day inside again.  Right now, we have two perfect things to keep you outside. One is Niles Audio...the other is a sale!

Niles Audio is a leading manufacturer of QUALITY audio products including outdoor speakers and amplifiers. For the month of June they are offering 15-25% off most of their outdoor audio and speaker packages. This includes:

 Speakers that look like rocks (RS6 in Sandstone)

Speakers that look like planters (PB6 in Weathered Concrete)

Speakers that look like speakers (OS6.5 in White)

This also includes speakers that blend into the landscaping (see picture at top of article...Niles version GS4 with GSS10 buried subwoofer).

Would you buy a Mercedes or a BMW if you could get 25% off? Niles Audio is regarded as a quality product in this same vein. If you are ready to spruce up your outdoor experience, Niles is ready to help...at a discount. Our client Tyrone just set up a few in his backyard for a party and was blown away by the sound but also by the experience. A party ain't a party without tunes. Let San Diego's leading dealer of outdoor speakers and audio enhance your summer get-togethers and save you some bucks.

It's that time of year to get ready for the outdoors. We're talking about getting your place ready for barbeques, swimming and general backyard lounging. This is best done with outdoor speakers, outdoor TVs and you. We'll handle the speakers and TV. Our partners Niles and Episode are doing some great things to save you money on outdoor speakers and audio this month. We have already sold out of some of our latest specials. NOTE: No rainchecks on close-out deals. When they're gone, they're gone.

P.S. We have brought on Sony and their ES (stands for "elevated standard"...their best of the best) line of televisions, projectors, surround sound receivers and high-res audio products. We will have these on audition in our office shortly.

 Episode landscape speaker pictured above in different settings

Hello Folks!  Daniel Salisbury, ATD’s Installation Manager, is here to once again inform you of an absolutely SENSATIONAL product. The product I’m dying to tell you about is the EPISODE LANDSCAPE SERIES speaker system. How many times have you heard outdoor speakers perhaps in a friend’s backyard or at a restaurant and thought, “This sounds OK but it just doesn’t compare to an indoor system like we have in our living room. I wish this sounded like the system in our house.”  I, for one, have asked myself this very question many, many times.  Fortunately, we now have the solution. UPDATE: Check out our Youtube page HERE that provides video reviews of outdoor speakers, audio/video systems and much more.

The Episode Landscape Series has 2 different satellite speaker sizes: 4” and 6” (ES-LS-SAT-4-BRN & ES-LS-SAT-6-BRN) which conveniently can be mounted in multiple ways: on the ground, surface mounted under eaves, or even mounted TO A TREE! These speakers are shaped and colored to perfectly blend into the environment and they are built with high quality parts and construction.

Remember that awesome full bass I mentioned earlier?  The Episode Landscape Series System has a 12” Subwoofer (ES-LS-BSUB-12-CPR) that gets paired with the satellite speakers. This sub is a beast!  Don’t let its size scare you though. The bulk of this subwoofer is meant to be buried, leaving only the subwoofer's earth-tone dome to be left visible. UPDATE: There is now a 10" landscape subwoofer AND an 8" landscape subwoofer option. Use these in areas where you don't need DEEPCRAZY bass or where you don't have a lot of square footage to cover. Models are the ESLSBSUB8 and the ESLSBSUB10.

Now to top all of this with the jeweled crown of the system...The subwoofer and speakers are powered with a Crown amplifier (CDi1000) capable of pushing out 1000 watts of ridiculous power.

All this mumbo-jumbo aside...I have never heard any other outdoor system that comes close to sounding as good as the Episode Landscape Series system sounds.  Don’t just take my word for it though.

Our installer Mark: "It was like being in a high-end car with a crazy good sound system, but you are standing in your back yard.  The best outdoor speaker system I have ever heard!"

Our musician friend Eric: "W-O-W."

Our client Phillippe: "Wow."

Our client Brian: "Sold."

Do yourself a favor and let me give you a LIVE DEMONSTRATION of this system right here in our office!  You will not be disappointed. Summer is here! The sun is out! Let clear, full music flow in your backyard! Hope to see all of you in here real soon. Want to get a listen? Give us a call and let San Diego's leading dealer of Episode outdoor speakers and audio enhance your summer parties and environment with killer tunes.

One of the popular topics lately in the audio/video world are soundbars. These pieces are a contraption that acts as an all-in-one stereo that you hook up to your TV to get better audio. If you go to your local electronics store, you may hear some bad things about soundbars as many of the entry-level models literally sound worse than your TV. That is not a great deal. If you are a client of ours, you know that we firmly believe in value and presenting you with great products for the money. For this reason, we are proud to present Definitive Technology's latest soundbar offering because it sounds great AND it is $200.00 off for a limited time!

The details on the SOLOCINEMA STUDIO:

"It features true 5.1 decoding from Blu-ray and on-screen displays and menu thanks to HDMI, true center channel (most of its competitors, including from high-end competitors, are only 2.1 channels), included high-performance wireless subwoofer, Bluetooth with AptX and AAC, remote control of center channel and sub levels without needing to step into menus, and audio quality good enough that many of our Custom Integrators use it as a music zone too."

Here's a link that goes over the particulars:

If you're tired of asking your significant other, "What did he say?" when watching TV, you need this soundbar from Definitive Technology. This special runs from May 4th-June 7th. Want to get a listen? Give us a call and let San Diego's leading dealer of Definitive Technology enhance your free time with music and movies.
