Interested in High-End Home Audio, But Don’t Know Where to Start?

There comes a time in every music lover’s life when they decide to finally invest in a quality sound system.

If you’re ready to go beyond tinny, portable speakers that don’t offer any bass and depth—but aren’t sure where to start—we can help. Personal Technology is a home audio consultant that designs and installs sound systems in La Cañada Flintridge, CA, and the surrounding area.

There are many ways to enjoy high-fidelity audio at home. Below, we share four different approaches you can bring to your California residence!

Two-Channel System

A high-end sound system requires at least five components: two speakers, an audio receiver, music source, and wires. The receiver powers the speakers while connecting them to your record player, radio, CD player, or digital library. Some receivers can connect wirelessly to your phone, so you can stream while freely walking around the room. Expand your system with a subwoofer for rich bass notes and enjoy music in clearer detail than ever.

Multi-Zone Whole-Home Audio

Want to take your hi-fi audio to other parts of the house? You can soundtrack days at home with a whole-home audio system that syncs a series of speakers to the same media source. Select a playlist from your phone and enjoy it throughout every room. Or you can select separate audio zones and play different music in each area. That way, the kids can listen to their music upstairs while you enjoy your playlist downstairs. Set volume limits from your system, so it never gets too loud!  

Hidden & Invisible Audio

If you’re interested in multi-room audio but aren’t sure where to place speakers, consider hidden or invisible speakers. And yes, there’s a difference! Hidden speakers are installed within walls or ceilings and enclosed behind a flat, paintable grille. Flush to the surface, hidden speakers are barely discernable, like a recessed light.

But for a truly camouflaged appearance, invisible audio involves completely covering the speaker with a wall surface. You won’t see any sign of audio equipment and can still hear music loud and clear.

Outdoor Audio

High-fidelity audio doesn’t have to stay within four walls. Extend your audio system to the great outdoors with durable, weatherproof speakers mounted outside all year long. With a network of speakers, you’ll fill in audio gaps that often occur in the open air. We’ll run wires underground to connect to your indoor audio system, so the music never stops as you walk from the living room to the patio and everywhere in between.
