We were called out to troubleshoot an existing whole-home audio system that had been giving the new homeowners trouble. A previous technician had spent three days trying to track down the issue.
We were able to diagnose the problem in 15 minutes, resolve it, and correct the poor wiring and connections throughout the house within a few short hours.
As we worked through the system, we discovered poor wiring and connections throughout the entire house. The first photo is just one example of the improper installation we found… and we won’t even talk about all the wires going to the L speakers.
Properly stripped and twisted speaker wire, secure connections, correct polarity, and clean terminations may not be something you ever see once everything is installed, but they can make a huge difference in how reliably your audio system performs.
This was just one of many issues we found during the troubleshooting process.
Good equipment is only part of the equation. Good installation matters, too.
