Earlier this week, I posted an article about the FTC's clamp-down on bogus reviews and referrals. Sadly, the current dynamic is rife with too many questionable referrals and reviews. I'd suspect that the rather recent addition of "AI Technology" will only exacerbate and further expand on this troubling issue.

Nonetheless, I visited the Houzz.com website this morning, where Sound Plus Wood, Inc. has a professional presence. I took the liberty of extracting a few referrals and comments from our client base. We are most grateful for their extremely kind and flattering remarks.

Over the years I have worked on numerous projects with Sound Plus Wood. I know of no other firm who is as knowledgeable in all audio / visual electronics, integrated systems ( electric / hvac / custom key pads / remote access ) , thru alarm systems, security cameras / beams / Wi-Fi. As their industry evolves so do they. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone.

In my almost 40 years as an electronics professional I have yet to come across another professional with higher standards than Michael Moran and Sound Plus Wood. From the start to the finish of the jobs that I have worked with Michael on, paying attention to detail and craftsmanship were paramount. And the results spoke for themselves. The beauty and construction of his designs are second to none. I would not have to think about twice about recommending Sound Plus Wood to anyone who cares about quality and workmanship.

Sound Plus Wood is Mike Moran, and Mike Moran is Sound Plus Wood. Mike founded the company some 40 years ago, and I first hired him to improve my living room sound system in 1991. Ever since that first experience, Mike has been my go-to guy for anything relating to audio-video and even networking considerations. He has done several jobs for me since, and has stood firmly behind his recommended products, and even more strongly behind his own workmanship. Lest you think, "Yeah, yeah, yeah...Mike is probably a friend, so what am I to expect?" You'd be right. Mike is a friend, but he became a friend as a result of his professional relationship with me; I never knew of him prior to the first time he worked for me.

Custom AV Integration:
As a counterpoint to last week's post regarding custom audio-video deployment and integration, I thought it might be helpful to provide another perspective.
Accordingly, I am enclosing a photo on a more-better deployment approach. This project utilized custom Middle Atlantic 19" pull-out rack mounts. The AV components are installed with Middle Atlantic's custom rack mount shelves. Adequate ventilation is also provided via MA vent panels.
This AV System is comprised of a Denon AVR-X8500HA Reference Receiver, LG 55" OLED 4K Display, AppleTV 4K Streamer Module, Kaleidescape's Movie and Music Server, DirecTV 4K Satellite Receiver, Luxul 24 Port PoE Ethernet switch, Crestron Smart Home Control Processor with accompanying hand-held remote control, and a Snap One Surge and Power Conditioner that provides the ability to remotely reboot all AV Appliances.
The Crestron Processor controls the entire property including Lighting, AV distribution, HVAC, and Security, i. e, it is what is commonly referred to as a Smart Home.

Better, More-Better, or Most-Bestest? Your thoughts and comments are appreciated.
