Authorized Savant Dealer – South and Central Florida
Sophisticated Intelligent Homes
Setting the Standard for Luxury Smart Home Automation in Florida
Savant has been in the world’s most luxurious homes since 2005. Founded by telecommunications engineers on Cape Cod, Massachusetts, the company was built from the start for a single purpose: to give the owners of extraordinary homes complete control over every system that makes their property function. Today, Savant is recognized as the world’s leading luxury smart home platform, with a portfolio spanning intelligent lighting, motorized shades, climate, whole-home audio, cinematic entertainment, access control and security, and energy management.
Definitive Electronics is an authorized Savant dealer serving Martin, Palm Beach, Broward, Miami-Dade, and Orlando. Our team designs, programs, and installs Savant systems in new construction and renovation projects throughout Florida, working directly with architects, interior designers, and builders to ensure the system is specified correctly from the earliest planning stage.
What distinguishes Savant from every other automation platform is the depth of its integration. A Savant home does not connect a collection of independent smart devices. It runs on a unified platform where systems communicate with each other, so a single scene called “Evening” can lower the shades, warm the lighting, set the thermostat, cue a playlist, and lock the front gate simultaneously. The Savant app puts that experience at your fingertips from any room in the home, anywhere in the world, or directly from a Savant keypad on the wall.
“Most integrators install hardware. Definitive Electronics designs complete systems, specifying hardware, control, and aesthetics all-together, from the first meeting to the final walkthrough.”
— Don Dixon, President · Definitive Electronics
The Savant Platform
Everything Your Home Does, Controlled by One Elegant System
Savant brings eight categories of home technology under a single, unified platform. Each system works independently. Together, they work as one.
Intelligent Lighting
Savant lighting goes well beyond on and off. DayShift technology gradually adjusts color temperature and intensity throughout the day to support your natural rhythms – warming at dawn, brightening through midday, and settling into amber tones by evening. Savant Scenes let you set the precise mood for any occasion with a single touch. From architectural fixtures to whole-room dimming, every light in the home answers to one system.
Motorized Shades
Savant’s Proseo Shades are custom-fabricated for every window in the home, with no exposed wires or motors and hundreds of designer fabric options. Control every shade individually or by room, set schedules tied to sunrise and sunset, and create scenes that coordinate shade and lighting for privacy, comfort, and energy management. Proseo is available for new construction projects and retrofits, and integrates directly with the Savant system.
Climate Control
The Savant Multistat is far more than a thermostat. Its high-resolution touchscreen displays indoor and outdoor conditions, local weather, and the active Savant Scene. Activating “Relax” can adjust your temperature, lower the shades, dim the lights, and cue a playlist simultaneously. Integrated sensors monitor interior and exterior conditions throughout the home, and room-by-room zoning keeps every space feeling exactly as you want it.
Whole-Home Entertainment
Savant distributes 4K video and lossless audio to every room in the home, indoor and out. The Savant Music platform puts every streaming service into a single personalized dashboard. One touch sets the entire home’s entertainment to match the moment. The Pro Remote X2, available in Space Gray, Jet Black, or Rose Gold, controls the full home from the sofa with a colorful touchscreen and customizable hard buttons for your most-used scenes.
Door Entry and Security
Savant’s security platform provides real-time monitoring, remote access control, and custom notifications, all within the same app that runs the rest of the home. Lock and unlock doors, arm and disarm systems, and receive alerts from anywhere in the world. Separate access profiles for family members, household staff, and guests give you precise control over who has access and when, managed from a single screen.
User Interfaces
Savant gives you every way to control your home: the Savant app on any iOS or Android device, elegant in-wall touch panels, three lines of architectural keypads – Metropolitan, Echo, and Ascend – the Pro Remote X2 for the living room, voice control through Alexa, Google Assistant, and Siri, and full system control through Apple TV. Every interface is designed to disappear into the room while remaining effortlessly accessible.
Smart Energy Management
Savant Power transforms any home’s electrical system into an intelligent energy platform. Monitor every circuit in real time, manage solar generation, battery storage, and EV charging from the same app that controls your lights and shades, and keep the home powered and comfortable through Florida’s frequent outages. Savant Power is the only luxury smart home energy platform fully integrated with home automation, not added on after the fact. Scalable from 20kWh to 500kWh of storage.
Savant Essentials
Savant Essentials is the software foundation that keeps the entire system current, connected, and protected. Automatic cloud backups ensure every setting can be restored with a single touch. Third-party integrations, advanced automation, and the Intercom feature – enabling room-to-room communication and whole-home paging through Savant touch panels – are managed through Essentials. It is the layer that ensures your Savant system improves over time, not just on day one.

Common Questions About Savant Smart Homes
Savant Home Automation FAQs
For a professionally integrated Savant smart home system, yes. Savant is fundamentally different from DIY smart-home platforms built around individual consumer devices. Savant home systems are designed, configured, programmed, and supported through Savant’s professional dealer and integrator network.
Savant states that its systems require specialized programmers who have been certified to deploy Savant systems and directs homeowners interested in a Savant installation to certified dealers.
That professional role becomes especially important when Savant is controlling multiple systems throughout a luxury residence.
A Savant integrator may be responsible for:
- System design and equipment specification
- Network and low-voltage infrastructure
- Lighting and shade integration
- Whole-home audio and video
- Home theater integration
- Climate control
- Security and entry integration
- Savant scenes and automation
- User interfaces and remotes
- Equipment racks and power management
- Programming and commissioning
- Testing and documentation
- Homeowner training
- Software updates and troubleshooting
- Future upgrades and system expansion
The integrator also coordinates compatible products from different manufacturers, so they behave like one system.
The relationship often continues after installation. Savant recommends that homeowners contact their integrator for system support, and that changes to important infrastructure, such as routers, internet providers, or Wi-Fi credentials, may require dealer involvement to maintain proper operation.
There is an important distinction for Savant Power. Some Savant Power equipment can be installed and designed by an electrical contractor, and certain electrical work requires a licensed electrician. Integrating Savant Power into a broader Savant smart home, however, requires a Savant-accredited dealer.
For homeowners, the quality of the integrator is therefore nearly as important as the technology itself. The system should be carefully engineered, documented, serviceable, and capable of evolving with the home.
Definitive Electronics provides Savant system design, integration, programming, installation, and ongoing support for luxury homes throughout Florida. We take responsibility for the complete technology experience, from the infrastructure behind the walls to the controls you use every day.
Planning a Savant smart home? Talk to Definitive Electronics about designing and supporting a complete home automation system.
Savant systems include equipment and a host within the home, but internet connectivity is still important for certain services, remote features, streaming content, third-party integrations, updates, and cloud-connected functionality.
As a result, an internet outage doesn’t necessarily mean that every function in a Savant home immediately stops working. However, exactly what remains available depends on the system design, the devices being controlled, and whether a particular service depends on an internet or cloud connection.
Functions involving local equipment may continue to operate, whereas services that require an external connection may not. Internet-dependent features can include streaming services, certain third-party integrations, remote access, and cloud services.
NOTE: An internet outage and a home-network failure are not the same thing.
Your internet service connects the home to the outside world. Your local network allows devices inside the home to communicate with one another. A Savant system depends heavily on a properly designed home network, so changing routers, internet providers, Wi-Fi names, or network credentials without coordinating with your Savant integrator can affect system functionality. Savant specifically recommends involving the dealer when making these types of network changes.
For a luxury smart home, network reliability should therefore be treated as part of the automation system itself. Depending on the property and the homeowner’s requirements, the design may include enterprise-grade networking, carefully planned Wi-Fi coverage, battery backup for critical network and automation equipment, and other measures to improve resilience.
Definitive Electronics designs the network and automation system together so the technology behind your Savant home is engineered for reliability, not simply convenience.
Talk to a Definitive Electronics home automation specialist about designing a reliable Savant smart home system and robust network for your Florida residence.
Savant can bring many of the technologies in a luxury home together under one control system. Instead of using separate apps and controls for lighting, entertainment, climate, shades, and other systems, homeowners can interact with compatible technologies through the Savant app, remotes, touchscreens, and personalized Scenes.
Depending on the equipment installed and integrated, a Savant system can control or interact with:
- Lighting: Dim lights, adjust compatible tunable or color lighting, control individual fixtures or rooms, and incorporate lighting into automated Scenes
- Motorized shades: Open and close shades individually, by room, on schedules, or as part of whole-home Scenes
- Climate: Control temperature and compatible HVAC systems and incorporate climate settings into routines
- Whole-home audio: Select music and distribute it to individual rooms or multiple areas throughout the property
- Video: Control televisions, streaming sources, distributed video, and entertainment systems
- Home theaters: Combine AV, lighting, shades, and other compatible equipment into commands such as a “Movie Night” Scene
- Security and surveillance: Integrate compatible security functions, cameras, and alerts into the Savant experience
- Entry and access: Depending on the installed equipment, Savant can integrate functions such as entry stations, door control, garage doors, and related security features
- Pools and outdoor spaces: Savant can extend automation to compatible pool, spa, lighting, entertainment, and other outdoor systems
- Energy: Savant Power can provide circuit-level monitoring and control and coordinate energy use, backup power, and other compatible energy resources
Savant Scenes are where these individual systems become especially useful. One command can affect several technologies at once. A “Good Night” Scene, for example, could turn off selected lights and entertainment equipment, adjust climate settings, and perform other programmed actions.
Exactly what Savant can control depends on the products in the home and their compatibility with the system. That’s one reason system design matters. An experienced integrator determines how the different technologies should communicate and creates an interface that makes a complex home feel simple. Get a quote.
There’s no single price for a Savant smart home system because every system is designed around the home, the technology being controlled, and the level of automation the homeowner wants. A Savant system might begin with control of a few rooms and services, while a large luxury residence may require integrating lighting, motorized shades, climate, entertainment, security, networking, energy management, and other systems throughout the property.
Savant offers different host platforms for different levels of system size and complexity. The Smart Host is designed for a wide range of residential applications, while Pro Host and Super Pro Host support larger, more customized installations.
The largest cost factors typically include:
- Size of the home and number of rooms
- Number of controlled lights and shades
- Whole-home audio and video requirements
- Televisions, theaters, and entertainment spaces
- Climate and environmental control
- Security, cameras, entry, and access integration
- Home networking and Wi-Fi infrastructure
- Savant Power and energy-management components
- Touchscreens, remotes, keypads, and other interfaces
- Equipment racks and wiring
- Programming and system customization
- Installation, commissioning, and ongoing support
For new construction and major renovations, planning early can also help control costs. Lighting, shade power, low-voltage cabling, equipment locations, networking, and other infrastructure can be incorporated into the construction process rather than addressed after finishes are complete.
The better question is often not “How much does Savant cost?” but “What should my Savant system include?” A professional integrator can determine which components provide meaningful value for how you use your home and design a system that grows with your needs.
Definitive Electronics designs and installs Savant systems for luxury residences throughout Florida. We can evaluate your home, priorities, existing technology, and future plans and develop a detailed system recommendation.

Yes. Wisdom Audio can be incorporated into professionally designed Control4, Crestron, Savant, and Josh.ai systems. The speakers and amplifiers form the high-performance audio portion of the system, while the home automation platform provides convenient control of sources, volume, rooms, entertainment, lighting, shades, and other integrated technologies.
The exact integration depends on the system design and the audio processors, receivers, amplifiers, and source components being used. In a dedicated home theater, for example, the automation system can start a movie, select the appropriate AV source, adjust lighting and shades, and control playback while the Wisdom Audio system delivers the sound.
This makes Wisdom Audio particularly well-suited to luxury homes where exceptional audio needs to be part of a larger, intuitive technology experience rather than operate as a standalone system.
Definitive Electronics works with Wisdom Audio, Control4, Crestron, Savant, and Josh.ai, and can design the audio, automation, and control systems together so the components function as a cohesive system.
People love Savant because it combines high-end home automation with an exceptionally polished, intuitive user experience. It is especially appealing to homeowners who want sophisticated technology throughout the home without feeling like they are operating a complicated control system.

Savant brings lighting, climate, entertainment, security, shades, energy management, and other connected technologies into a single app. Homeowners can also create personalized Savant Scenes that coordinate multiple systems at once. A “Good Morning” scene, for example, might adjust the temperature, open the shades, turn on selected lights, and start music with one command.
Reddit discussions frequently point to Savant’s interface as one of its biggest strengths. When homeowners and integrators compare Savant with Crestron and Control4, Savant is often praised for its clean, refined interface and Apple-like approach to design. In one detailed comparison, a Reddit contributor specifically preferred Savant’s home screen and navigation when comparing the platform directly with Control4.
Another Reddit discussion described Savant as particularly appropriate for homeowners who do not want to constantly tinker with their automation. The idea was essentially to have a professional configure the home properly and then simply enjoy it. That philosophy helps explain Savant’s appeal in luxury residences, where homeowners may want advanced automation without having to become their own system administrators.
Savant also offers considerable personalization. Different family members can have their own preferences and scenes, while the system can control everything from home theaters and whole-home music to lighting, climate, pools, and security. Savant says its ecosystem supports integration and connectivity across nearly 10,000 protocols, devices, streaming services, and other technologies.
The platform has traditionally been especially attractive to people who appreciate the Apple ecosystem and its design philosophy. That connection continues to evolve. Savant has announced expanded Siri capabilities and features, such as triggering personalized Savant scenes on an iPhone via NFC tags or geofencing.
As with Crestron and Control4, the quality of the integrator is extremely important. A well-designed and properly supported Savant system can provide a very different ownership experience from one that was poorly planned or inadequately maintained.
Savant is therefore not automatically the best platform for every home. Its strongest appeal is to homeowners who prioritize beautiful interfaces, simplicity, personalization, sophisticated entertainment, and powerful whole-home control without unnecessary complexity.
Definitive Electronics can help Florida homeowners compare Savant with Crestron, Control4, and other professional automation platforms to determine which system best fits the home, lifestyle, technology requirements, and desired level of customization. Get a quote.
Crestron, Control4, and Savant are all professionally installed smart home platforms that can integrate lighting, climate, security, entertainment, shades, and other connected systems. The main differences are in customization, user experience, integration depth, and the types of projects each platform is best suited for.
Crestron is typically specified for large, highly customized estates with complex control requirements.
Control4 offers flexible whole-home control across a wide range of residential projects.
Savant is often selected for its refined, lifestyle- and entertainment-driven user experience.
Definitive Electronics works with all three world-class home automation systems and can recommend the best fit based on your home’s size, technology requirements, preferred controls, budget, and plans for future expansion.
RELATED POST: Compare Crestron vs Control4 vs Savant vs Josh.ai
Absolutely. Definitive Electronics can integrate your AWALL display with your existing smart home system so you can control video, audio, lighting, shades, and more from a single interface.
Yes. Lutron’s QS wired and Clear Connect RF wireless protocols integrate natively with Crestron, Control4, Savant, Josh.ai, and other leading home automation platforms.
Definitive Electronics specializes in full-system integration, designing window treatments as one component of a unified smart home that coordinates shades, lighting, climate, audio, video, and security through a single control interface.
In a HomeWorks QSX or RadioRA 3 system, lighting and shade control are already on the same native platform.
For homes running Crestron or Control4 as the primary automation backbone, Lutron shade control is integrated at the driver level, so the homeowner can operate everything from a single interface with no visible seams between systems.
