When acoustically customizing a new property, people usually take the “after market” approach. Meaning that a lot of the video and stereo equipment are fitted after construction or remodeling. This approach may sometimes lead to an unpleasant surprise – poor sound quality and video ergonomics.
The importance of acoustics should not be overlooked during the planning stages of construction or remodeling. It is important to understand the dynamics of your acoustic and video layout early enough in your endeavor, so that it does not create future annoyances with wiring, improper lighting and other “after market” symptoms.
