SMART IDEAS / SMART HOME DESIGN & INSTALLATION

  A Killer Home Cinema Install

By David Richards | Thursday | 25/10/2007

This stunning Sydney home features a custom audio-visual installation that will satisfy the fussiest of movie fans. We take a look inside to get some ideas.

How do you go about installing new technology in your home? Via the builder or the electrician, or do you call in a specialist installer?

Actually, it doesn't really matter, as the owners of a stunning new home in Cromer, NSW found out when their electrician engaged the services of NSW CEDIA member Andrew Parker Custom AV Installations to work on the customisation of this two-storey house which comes with a media room and six zones of distributed audio.

One of the tasks facing Andrew was the distribution of content to three large plasma screens. Two Panasonic 50-inch plasma screens were located either side of a master fireplace that faced onto a lounge and a dining area.

He also had to ensure that content, as well as a distributed Hi-Fi system was easily connected to a 55-inch Hitachi plasma located in a separate media room. The lighting control system was based around a Clipsal system installed by the electrician, who in this case, did not have the skill set to install the custom AV system.
