The Difference Between a DIY and Professional AV Installation
Save Money with a Professional Audiovisual System
The do-it-yourself (DIY) movement grew up in the 1950s and, today, is less a movement and more a way of life. Some of the most popular DIY projects for homeowners in Bethany Beach, DE, are painting, landscaping, and upgrading outdoor areas.
Are you surprised not to see audio-video installations on the list? What’s so hard about installing a TV and connecting a Bluetooth speaker to the internet?
No longer limited to a few TVs and speakers you carry around your home, the latest audiovisual systems rely on professional AV installation. Ironically, it’s by turning to a professional with decades of experience that you’re assured a system that’s easy to use. Brand optimization, strategic placement, calibration, and integration with other connected systems provide optimal performance—the best in images and sound.
Here, we’ll explore the key to achieving home entertainment that rivals commercial venues and why working with a professional offers the best approach to obtaining state-of-the-art AV.

Long-Term Cost Savings
One of the main reasons people turn to DIY options for home electronics is the idea that it will save them money. While that may be accurate when looking at the project from a short-term perspective, when you expand your vision, you’ll find that the costs can significantly add up when taking on complex audiovisual integrations.
One of the most important considerations is durability. The correct setup and calibration reduce the possibility of premature component failure that leads to repair or replacement costs. If an issue should arise, professionals offer technical support, often remote or onsite, to assist you and optimize your home AV experience.
Lost in the Weeds
Do you remember that DIY project that went from a few days of tinkering to a month-long expedition? When talking about AV, that extended time frame is not uncommon. A simple home theater turns into a mishmash of equipment.
You can’t quite figure out how to create that immersive surround sound you know your system is capable of. And how do you get your lights to dim, the shades to lower, and the projector to turn on with the touch of a button? Today’s systems are complex. To experience everything the latest home entertainment offers requires the expertise of a professional.
