I have been using Michael for many years to install brackets, TV's, and get recommendations on products. He does excellent work and is very responsive. read more

Michael came and simplified my parent's TV/Audio system once the Savant remote system stopped working properly. They have everything (cable, AppleTV, Sonos, DVD) all connected through a Marantz receiver and the savant controlled it all. He simplified everything and patiently and clearly coached my parents how to use the remotes in simplistic form and any red flags to look out for future troubleshooting. He was well versed and knowledgeable about all of our separate components with great suggestions for further simplification with cost efficiency in mind. He's my new go-to tech support. I really appreciated how he wasn't trying to upsell any products and genuinely wanted to make the system user friendly for a couple octogenarians. read more

I absolutely love Michael's work! I had him set up my TV's and sound system for two moves. He is meticulous, thorough and does an amazing job. read more

I would highly recommend Michael for any of your home theater needs. He responded fast and the process through getting new equipment and installation went smoothly . I bought all the equipment needed from Michael as his prices were very competitive. He also was sensitive to my budget needs. His recommendations on what to buy turned out to be perfect. He is very detailed and takes his time to make sure that setup is done correctly. At one stage it was determined that the AVR was faulty. Because it was bought through Michael the exchange for a replacement took only one day and Michael handled all that was necessary with the distributor. Very convenient and great service. With some small adjustments Michael came back twice without any issues. Michael also offered any help in the future that might be needed. Once again I am very happy with my choice. Thank you Michael. read more

Michael set up my home audio 10 years ago, and I have him back every few years for a tuneup. I have honestly never had better customer service in my life. He always goes above and beyond.

This is premium service at an extremely reasonable price, and I recommend him to everyone I know. --Patrick read more

Michael installed a television with a mantel mount for my wife and I in our new home recently, which proved to be a little tricky, but he completely nailed it. As mentioned by others, he is an absolute perfectionist and is a total expert in his field. He took care to do "the absolute best" job possible, going to Home Depot to get specific, larger screws to ensure the mount and TV were completely secure. If you are seeking someone that will inspire confidence that this will be done right, you've found the right outfit. read more

I have an old stereo system which I just had repaired. I was hoping I could put it back together myself. My hip was fractured some months ago, & I decided that this was not within my capabilities at this time. I called Galaxy & was able to get an appointment for the next day. Best decision I ever made. The visit was delightful, system put together in less an an hour, & price was very reasonable. Love listening to my music again! read more

Michael did a great job installing my new Samsung Frame TV. I explained the job and shared photos of the space and he quickly gave me a reasonable quote and was able to add me to his schedule within days. Two days later my new tv is installed and looking and working great. He also took the time to make sure the TV was the appropriate size for my space and pre-sized it on the wall, tested my viewing comfort based on my height and couch positioning to make sure the tv was in the correct spot tailored to my preference, and he made sure I was satisfied with picture and sound quality and that I knew how to operate the unit. Appreciate the professionalism, kindness , and a job well done. read more

Michael is the real deal. You simply won't find someone as knowledgeable, detail-oriented and passionate about your home A/V experience. He installed a picture-frame TV + Sonos system in our living room and did the most beautiful job. read more

If everyone in the world operated with the passion and diligence that Michael and his lovely family do, the world would be an incredible place. His passion and attention to detail is unmatched and 100% genuine. We had other bds that came in a little above but his bid coupled with aforementioned focus was invaluable. We had an Epson projector cleanly installed, 5.1 and retracting 103" screen. All programmed, balanced and tuned for our room. Communication was EXCELLENT and his mum and dad were adorable and dedicated - it's a complete family package!! Process took about 3 weeks as Michael had some back issues but muscles through like a trooper!! Incredible work - we now have a home cinema! read more

This guy has anger management issues, we agreed on a price for some speakers in a phone call that was later confirmed on a text message and after my wife picked up the speakers, I found out he did shorted me and gave 2 speakers left, then he went on to insult me, my family. He also refused to give me a bill and would only take cash..... read more

Michael is very helpful and very knowledgeable. It's an interaction for him, not a transaction, and his goal is to ensure the best outcome for you and leave you satisfied. I bought a significant amount of equipment from him and he helped me understand what would work best for my needs, not the most expensive thing I should buy. He's a great human, knows what he is doing, and I really recommend him. read more

Michael from Galaxy Home Theatres was an absolute pro helping me set up my eARC and CEC with my Denon receiver, Sony TV, and FireTV Cube enabling these components to work together seamlessly using the FireTV Cube remote as the main remote to trigger auto-switching on/off, TV input, receiver HDMI input, etc. My issue was I had a 5.1 surround sound home theater set up. My component setup as follows: -Sony TV acts as a monitor eARC HDMI - Denon receiver eARC HDMI -FireTV Cube HDMI - Denon HDMI input The issue: -video signal from FireTV Cube - Denon - TV was successful -but could not get the audio output to my receiver - 5.1 surround sound speakers (wired speakers, not Bluetooth speakers) I've tried countless setting combinations between the 3 components and none worked. I've spent hours on the phone with FireTV Cube, Sony TV and Denon tech support. All were very helpful but they could not help me with getting all of these 3 components video and audio all synced up together. Each company tech support only cares about being able to prove to me that their product works as intended and that was it, case closed. Michael was super knowledgeable with home theatre setup and his expertise in setting up complicated settings for TV, receiver, and media players like FireTV Cube helped save my sanity. The level of detail we went into getting each component's setting right was very tedious. Plus he also went above and beyond giving me some advance advice on tweaking my receiver Audyssey EQ room settings in the manual levels adjustments, fine tuning each device input setting and triggering. What's more impressive is that Michael walked me through the entire process over the phone since I reached out to him in the evening 7pm ish via Yelp. Michael responded promptly within 30 mins and this entire process took about an hour to complete. I can't thank Michael enough for his expertise and patience in helping me resolve my issue. If Michael can do this over the phone, I am sure he can do magic when he is on location with his client. Highly recommend Michael for anyone who needs help with their complicated home theater or Hifi audiophile setup. read more

Michael did a top-notch job with our new AV room. He recommended a television that was right for our needs and at a good price. We had been having trouble with our wifi as well, and he completely reconfigured our system so it now works great not only throughout the entire home, but also on the patio and even the far corners of the pool and hot tub. In addition, he provided SONOS speakers for various rooms in our house. What I was most impressed with, however, was his acute attention to detail. He's a perfectionist in every sense of the word. He not only wants you to have products that perform well, he's just as concerned with the look of the project. Everything is done in a clean and precise manner so that when he's done, no detail has been left unattended. Finally, on a personal note, I found him to be extremely kind as well. He is a patient listener who answers even the most novice questions (of which, I had many!). read more

Michael was super nice and very easy to talk with about his products and pricing. Also his Mom was very friendly. He's very knowledgeable on all of his products.

Mike has helped me with 2 TV installations over the past few years. He's very knowledgeable and honest. I highly recommend.

Amazing. I called Michael to set up an appt and we ended up talking for about 15 minutes. He patiently tried to walk me through steps to fix my home theater system that had unresponsive speakers. He texted me links with information and tests to try. He helped me all over the phone with no request for payment! I'm incredibly grateful for his time and commitment to service. Next time I have any need that Michael can help me with, he will be my first call. The service and care is a really rare breed these days. Incredible guy. read more

Michael and his team did an exceptional job in setting up our home theater on our new entertainment center. Michael is incredibly knowledgeable and thorough in his work and the team is extremely neat.

Michael followed up after the visit to make sure everything was working correctly. I highly recommend Michael and his team. Kathy S. read more

Michael, and family, did a wonderful job mounting our new OLED TV and gave us a great deal on a Sonos ARC soundbar. We found him to be personable, prompt, meticulous and absolutely focused on customer satisfaction. He made sure we understood exactly what he was doing, gave us plenty of opportunities to provide feedback and make adjustments to the position of the TV to ensure it was set optimally for our room. No hesitations recommending him to anyone and wouldn't hesitate to call again in the future if the need arises. read more

As a bit of an audio/video novice, I originally intended to have a projector and screen installed in our studio space. I consulted with a few people before moving forward with Michael and I'm so glad I did! Michael walked me through all of my options available and I learned that the space was a bit small to get the most out of a screen and projector, so we landed on the Samsung Frame along with a Sonos Arc. The end result was a fantastic set-up with an incredibly smooth installation process. Michael made the process super easy and though he was happy to help with whatever option I chose, he gave me great input and I ended up spending far less than I had expected. I'll definitely leverage Michael again if the need comes up and highly recommend him to give you a clear path to what you're looking for. read more

Michael responded pretty much immediately to my request for a quote to connect my built-in speakers throughout the house. We discussed the project over the phone so he could become familiar with it and consider some options. He was readily available and came out the next day. He came up with a practical solution which was less costly and utilized equipment that I already had. He was very attentive to keeping all the wires organized, explained everything he was doing and why, and left things clean when he was done. I really appreciate the job he did and will use him again in the future. read more

I can't tell all of you out there how much I recommend Michael Abounassar for all your System needs !! I had made a few calls looking for someone and I'm so glad they could not send me someone for a week because that's how I found Michael here on Yelp . He called me back right away and was at my place in an hour , he was so knowledgeable about everything that needed to be done , and so polite . I'm not great with connecting and setting up , he labeled all the wires , so in case I needed something in a pinch it showed me where it goes . And he was quite fast , I suffered for over a week but now it's all perfect !! I can't thank you enough Michael . Best Anthony read more

If I could give 50 stars I would. This is one of the best companies I have ever worked with. I'm amending this, because it is many years later and everything is still working great. Other companies, like my last paint company, I gave a good review and then a little while later things are chipping and cracking. Not only does michael do an amazing job that holds up over time, but to this older lady who doesn't know anything about this electronic stuff, he has helped me troubleshoot over the years, over the phone, helping me fix things I may have messed up in like 15 seconds. A good and honorable company who knows their stuff. Hire him NOW!! read more

Michael Abounassar is a home theatre genius + a compulsively thorough and careful worker, and he and his family are terrific people to boot. Have been having problems with an upstairs bedroom setup of a tv, needing inputs for directv, roku, a dvd player with the need to place receivers in an adjacent room, where IR was tough. In one afternoon, he set up a new remote, simplified the remote screens so that it was effortless to switch inputs and so that the one remote flawlessly dealt with all of the devices, using IR and RF, so no problems with slightly remote device location. His attention to detail, and his willingness to make sure my wife and I knew the ins and outs of the revised system before he left was a pleasure; and he came in right at his estimate, though he wound up working an extra couple of hours to get things exactly right. I Heartily recommend Michael and his firm, Galaxy Home Theatres, 818-395-3342. Arlan Cohen read more
