and sub-systems work together properly. Without a proper design, you may be subject to hidden charges later.

Love watching movies? Hate going to the theater? Let us show you how we can design and install a state of the art theater in your home.
“Everybody does Home Automation now. I can even get it through my alarm.” Sound familiar? Can you get Home Automation through your alarm?
Music throughout is an awesome addition to any home. Play your favorite playlist throughout your home while you clean.
Every start watching a movie in the family room, then decide to finish it in the master bedroom? Video Distribution fixes this issue.
Do you ever think that surround sound is “too loud”? We hear this a lot. However, surround sound is no “louder” than TV sound.
We all hope we never need a camera to record an event around our home. However, far too often, we do.
Whether you have a full home automation system or just kids with electronic devices, the network keeps everything humming.
Don’t leave your entertainment system to just anyone. Hire the experts to make it right.
We can design a system that will tickle your ear while stroking your budget.
Let your imagination (and a little direction from us) lead you to lighting ecstasy.
HVAC control can save you enough money every year to pay for its self, four times over.
You can open one or all your shades, with just a simple button press.

A well-designed smart home feels natural from the moment you walk through the door. Lights welcome you home. Your favorite music reaches the kitchen and patio. When it is time to watch a movie, the room is ready without a series of separate adjustments.
For homeowners in Phoenix and Scottsdale, Audio Video by Design brings home technology together around your family’s routines. We design and install integrated systems for entertainment, lighting, motorized shades and more, with controls that make sense for the people who use them. Start with the rooms and experiences that matter most, then plan how the pieces will work together.
A thoughtfully planned arrival scene can bring on selected lights and create a comfortable transition from the garage to the living space.
Bring your lighting and music into a coordinated scene so you can spend more time with guests and less time adjusting each room.
Combine entertainment controls with the right lighting and shade settings for a room that is easier to enjoy.

Light shapes how a room looks and how comfortably you can use it. Bright task lighting helps in the kitchen; a softer scene changes the mood for dinner. Motorized shades give you a convenient way to adjust daylight and privacy, including windows that are awkward to reach.
Audio Video by Design offers lighting control and custom motorized shades that can become part of your home’s larger control system. Lighting scenes adjust selected fixtures together, while shade controls let you open one window covering or a group with a simple command.
Good planning considers more than the motor. Fabric choice, the direction a window faces and the room’s purpose all matter. A space used for reading, television and daytime conversation may need a different balance of glare control, view and privacy than a bedroom. Plan electric light and daylight together for a more comfortable result.

A great entertainment system begins with the room and the people in it. Where will everyone sit? How much daylight reaches the screen? Will the space be devoted to movies or also used for games, conversation and everyday television? Those answers help shape the display, sound and controls.
Create a space centered on the movie experience. Audio Video by Design designs and installs home theaters, including options for a small room or bedroom conversion. Screen size, seating and speaker placement deserve the same attention as the equipment itself.
Explore Home TheaterEnjoy television, surround sound or two-channel music in a space that serves more than one purpose. A media room can balance family use and entertainment without requiring a separate cinema room.
Explore Media Room DesignWhole-house audio can bring a shared playlist to several rooms or let listeners choose different music in separate areas. Decide which spaces need sound, how each area will be controlled and whether the patio belongs in the plan.

The Best Outdoor Installation award was bestowed upon Audio Video by Design at the 2019 CEDIA Expo.
Terry Kohler, the owner of Audio Video by Design, has done AV work on both of my homes in the Phoenix area. He has done AV wiring, hung TV’s, installed speakers, added Control 4, and switches that allow me to control features in my home with my phone. His workmanship was professional and on time, and he did not go over budget unless I added work. I highly recommend him. You will be satisfied.
I called AV by Design to assist with a surround sound system. Terry was on time and very professional. He was knowledgeable and informative. In no time at all, I had a wonderful sound system that fit my style and budget. Thanks, Audio Video by Design. Great Job!
Terry has installed home automation throughout my entire house along with full surround sound speakers in my backyard. The customer service is excellent and so is the quality of the products he uses. I recommend him to anyone I talk to who wants any audio video in their home or business
We’ve used Terry for audio/video work for over 15 years. Now have Control 4 done by him too. Very happy.
We have surround sound outdoor speakers, and absolutely love Control4. Terry is great.
Never once was I concerned that Terry couldn't handle this job. He knew exactly what to do, and the results are immaculate...We have since had him back out to help with some other wiring projects and he is always friendly, prompt and efficient. I highly recommend this company for all of your AV needs. We will be hiring Audio Video by Design to come back out and install a complete home automation/control system for us. Thanks Terry!

Home technology works better when the design accounts for the entire experience: the rooms you use, the equipment you already own, the controls you prefer and the infrastructure behind them. Audio Video by Design’s AV design and installation services bring those pieces into a coordinated plan.
Use these questions to prepare for your consultation:
List the experiences that would make daily life easier, from a simple TV setup to lighting scenes, music in several rooms or a dedicated theater. Identify your priorities and budget before choosing products.
Consider furniture, windows, equipment locations and cable routes. Review the existing home network and Wi-Fi coverage alongside the AV system; streaming and connected controls need a network designed for the home they serve.
Think about the family members and guests who will operate the system. The right plan makes everyday actions clear and leaves room to discuss future additions and service needs.
Yes. Audio Video by Design works on projects ranging from a single room to whole-home automation. Start with the experience you want most, and discuss how today's choices could fit into a larger system later.
Control lets you make an adjustment, such as turning on a light. Automation coordinates actions around a scene, schedule or event. An integrated design can bring several compatible systems together, so a routine involves fewer separate commands.
No. A dedicated theater is one option, but a media room or a smaller room can also support an enjoyable home entertainment system. Room dimensions, seating, light and how you use the space help determine the right approach.
Yes, with a whole-house audio system designed for independent listening areas. Other designs play the same source across the home with separate volume controls. Your household's listening habits will guide the best configuration.
Bring your priorities, the rooms you want to include, a budget range and a list of existing equipment. Photos or a floor plan can help explain the space. If something is not working, describe the problem and when it happens.
Audio Video by Design offers audio video service and repair. Share the equipment details and symptoms so the team can discuss the appropriate next step. Compatibility and possible upgrades should be evaluated for your particular system.
