Got questions? We’ve got answers. Our FAQ page is designed to help you quickly find solutions to common inquiries about our services, processes, and policies. Whether you're curious about how we operate, need clarification on specific details, or are just looking for quick guidance, our comprehensive FAQ section has you covered.
Type of TV? Ultra Slim, LED, UHD, SUHD, 4K, QLED?
All current TV technology uses a variation of LED technology. They vary according to thinness, resolution, contrast ratio, panel dimming, motion rate and more. We recommend any new TV purchase be 4K ready for the upcoming technology. We do unique and custom TV installs including over fireplaces.
Size of TV?
Due to HD programming, sitting distances can be closer than with the older CRT TVs. A good rule of thumb is to purchase the largest screen possible, yet not too large where you will feel you are sitting in the 1st row of a movie theater.
Do I need Surround Sound?
A large screen is only half the experience. A good surround system will allow you to “feel” the action. Whether it’s a car chase, exploding planets, or even a subtle rainstorm, surround sound allows for the “you are there” experience.
Can I play different music in different rooms?
Yes, we can dedicate a player for each room that can be operated independently of each other. That said, you can easily “group” rooms (zones) and control the volume independently.
Why use a custom integrator?
A custom integrator such as AVbyIV can recommend products that we know work well together. An experienced integrator knows best how to professionally run cabling within walls, integrate all the components, custom program a universal remote and train you on how to use your new system.
Do you offer outdoor audio-video systems and installation?
We sell and install outdoor flat panels and soundscape for outdoor living. We can implement quality surround sound and HD TV sets for great outdoor experiences.
I am looking for a home and outdoor audio system. What do you recommend?
Depending on specific needs (number of rooms, size, yard size, pool, etc.), we offer different brands to answer those needs. One of our most popular brands and audio systems is the Sonos® Wireless HiFi System. The system works in a single room as well as the entire house. The system offers indoor and outdoor speakers, providing wall-to-wall HiFi sound. You can control all the music with free apps for Android®, iPhone® or iPad®.

DIY Accidents
Do-It-Yourself is not always a good idea, we have installed hundreds of home theaters, TVs, sound systems indoor and outdoor and we have seen many AV installation accidents when done by non-professionals.
