Imagine you’re in the kitchen and feel like listening to that band you loved in high school. You take out your phone, and with a tap of a button, it starts playing over the room’s speakers. 

Now you’re heading out to the patio. Want to keep listening? Select your outdoor speakers through the same app—and the song will welcome you as you step into the sun. 

Such is the power of AV integration. When you own a smart home system like Crestron or Control4, all your home’s entertainment, speakers, and displays are connected to the same network and controls. 

How does AV integration work, and what are your options? Discover the possibilities for your Vero Beach, FL home with help from Definitive Electronics.

Summer in Boca Raton may not be much different than the rest of the year, but it's likely the reason you like it here. The warm Florida beaches beckon in the hotter months, and it might be a great time to escape to cooler environs too.

Regardless of how you spend your summer in Boca, you can take advantage of one of the most popular home automation features – smart lighting – to make summer better. Read on to learn about three ways you can use smart lighting to make your home more comfortable and energy-efficient. 

We’re a home automation company. Yet when we hear people complain that smart homes are “overrated” or “don’t work” (like this article in Gizmodo), we take no offense. Why not? 

Because we know that these smart homes were not professionally installed with the best control systems. They're DIY smart homes, relying on Wi-Fi and Bluetooth and “20 different apps” to control it all. If you only use off-the-shelf smart gadgets from Amazon or Best Buy, it’s no surprise that you’ll run into trouble!  

For a real smart home experience, you need to partner with a home automation company (like our team in Palm Beach, FL) that can seamlessly wire and program your entire house’s technology. Here’s why a professional smart system makes all the difference. 

Are you ready to upgrade your home’s audio-visuals beyond a standard TV and portable Bluetooth speaker? You can create a stunning experience at home with audio-visual systems that let you manage displays, speakers, and media sources from one controller.

Many homeowners don’t realize how a centralized AV system can simplify entertainment in all areas of the house, from the backyard to the home theater. You can pull up streaming services, select devices, and enjoy media instantly through a remote, wall keypad, or from your smartphone and tablet.

To see all that’s possible with a professional audio-visual system, learn about the AV solutions you can bring to your Vero Beach, FL home.
