We get Into it to enjoy music right? So John had my girlfriend and I sit with him for over and hour demoing amps and speakers. I ended up buying a Rega Elex MK4 which was a massive upgrade for me and honestly a big investment, but they really did not push me to spend one dollar more than I could afford. While we were there I told him what bookshelf speakers I had and he connected some similarly sized bookshelves with a pair of REL subs and I was just completely enamored with the suddenly gutsy sound. Fast forward a couple of months and I went to buy the REL, which has totally exceeded my expectations. My system is like new and I am enjoying everything in my collection for the first time all over again. John and everyone at Audio Connection: you guys have a customer for life!

AVOID PAC AT ALL COSTS…read more If you are in the market for a high end audio or home theatre system, or perhaps a seamless wireless internet system, you should seek out a business specializing in these services. You should expect to pay more for the components than at Best Buy or PC Richards, because the selection of the components, the expertise in designing the system, and the overall service pre and post the sale are part of what you are purchasing. But what if you do not get good service, such as being double billed for installation when the component recommended did not meet the proposed purpose? Or if you are billed for service provided and the system is less functional than when the person arrived? Or if you are told to solve the problem yourself through a website, which requires speaking with that company's technical expert, purchasing components you must assemble and install on your own, but the home theatre business decides to sell you those components at MSRP plus shipping, even though they expended no time and left you to solve the problem alone? Or if the head of the service department is nasty and totally lacks any interpersonal skills and is unwilling to accept any responsibility for any issues that are not satisfactory to the customer and will not even grant the slightest credit? I would say that you should avoid that business at all costs and find one that is committed to its customers and provides the services promised as outlined above. This was my experience at PAC and why I would never use them again. It is also probably why I never received the survey mentioned on their website, which I doubt if they ever received back would take it seriously. PAC Client Satisfaction Every project is followed by a survey mailed to the client with a postage paid reply addressed to the owner of PAC Ralph Tarnofsky. I never got this survey and when I did provide feedback, I got the cold shoulder and no satisfaction. Instead, I received contempt and no consideration.

This place really provides lack luster service with premium pricing. 8 or 9 years ago we wanted a…read morepremium television setup in our home in short hills. Having used PAC in the past for installation and wiring we consulted with them about potential ideas for a tricky space. After working with the Richard the salesperson we settled on a variety of components for our system. Once installed for approximately $15k we were pleased with the sound and picture (which PAC has little to do with) but the user experience of the setup was awful. The bracket they chose was a pain in the ass to move and required serious muscle. Fast forward to two years ago and we downsized to an apartment in Summit and called to have them reassemble the system. None of the components were changed. Not a single element of the system except excluding the rear surround speakers differed from their system setup in short hills. Yet for some reason the tech needed to reprogram the $1500 universal remote for literally two hours. This of course gets billed to us. The kicker is that it doesn't work well at all. The remote rarely turns on all the components and the system continues to be a pain in the ass. Picture and sound are good but the "parts that don't come in a box" (their tag line) are not good. You're better off spending half as much on a system that has been dialed in by the manufacturer. Finished systems from these guys make designy stuff from B&O or even Samsung look like a steal once you're paying $3k in cables for a tv and another $3k for labor. We've communicated all of this to them over the years from initial dissatisfaction with the setup to our frustration with the relocating across town. Not sure they know what to do so they just move on to selling the next schmuck on a $75k setup. My two cents, do your homework before committing to a job from these guys.

We spoke to a number of alarm system installers in our area , and then found Berman Home Systems'…read moreexcellent reviews on Yelp. We needed to replace and upgrade a failing wired security system that we had installed in 1990. We felt completely comfortable from our first phone call to Alyssa and Rob who explained patiently, and in great detail, what would be involved and what choices we could make. Within 2 weeks we had a new upgraded wireless system, installed by two amazing young men: Nate and Jason, who in the space of 4 hours, finished the install, explained each step, and left the house spotless. Our concerns about possible damage in removing the old equipment and installing the attractive new system was unfounded: you would never know that any work had been done. After the install, Rob followed up with a detailed complete tutorial on how to use the system most effectively, and strongly encouraged us to stay in touch if any questions or problems arise in the future. We would highly recommend the team at Berman Home Systems.

However, when Rob Berman visited to plan out our wifi system, we discussed security and it became clear that he was extremely knowledgeable about the intricacies of security. He pointed out several major flaws in our existing system, which made it easy for someone to enter our home undetected. Rob took us on a walkthrough of our house to assess the requirements for installing a new system. Later that evening, we received a quote which we accepted immediately. The installation team was professional, detail-oriented, and kept us informed throughout the installation process. Rob made multiple visits to ensure everything was going smoothly and even took the time on a Saturday morning to walk us through every aspect of the system. Overall, we are thrilled with the work done by Berman. The installation team paid attention to every little detail and Rob's personal involvement in the project was appreciated. We feel secure and safe in our home and would highly recommend Berman to anyone looking for a top-notch security system.
