When these guys came to my house, they set up a video and sound system so good that it almost makes you feel your part of the entertainment that you are viewing. read more

AMAZING!! Sean Sr. and Sean Jr. installed two tv's for me and I am so glad I had them do the install. PThey were on time and professional. I know amazing is a big word and they earned it. They did a great job on the install and did it in a timely manner. Very clean job. They answered all my questions, and I had a few. I had one question a couple days later. Sean Sr. answered on the second ring and walked me through what I needed to do. Highly Recommend . read more

Shawn did a great uninstall of the worlds largest TV (previous owners had left it) and replaced with out existing tv. He advised replacing both hdmi cables (one was acting up; so do both at the same time). Easy to work with, flexible and informative. Would call him again! read more

I found Shawn by searching yelp after we bought a house in Palm Springs. In getting a new household started, we all count on a lot of professionals. Shawn was THE BEST!. He helped me get a new TV, new TV service, updated our sonos, put in speakers and amps, helped with our ring system, gave great advice on remote thermostats that saved us time and money. He was so communicative, professional, knowledgeable and helpful. I recommend him without hesitation. read more

Shawn Sr and Shawn JR did an excellent job installing our new TV, Shawn even picked it up from Costco which made it so convenient for me and my husband. They then moved our old TV to our bedroom, and moved that TV out to the patio (where there had never been a TV) installed new sound bars and fire sticks. They did a flawless job and they did it at a reasonable price. They were neat and very respectful of our home. Super conscientious! One of the sound bars we ordered was delayed and arrived 2 days after the TV installations...but both Shawn Sr and Shawn Jr were happy to return at no extra cost to see it properly installed. They also installed 3 eero wifi extenders as our ring doorbell wasn't working and the wifi was lagging in certain areas of our home. They did a great job. Everything now works beautifully. I would highly recommend SMG Audio! We will definitely be using them in the future! Thank you Shawn Sr & Shawn Jr! You are a class act! read more

These guys are great! They really know their business and the tech side of things. A pleasure to deal with. This is my second time utilizing their talent. Will definitely call again with my next TV / music installation. read more

We just moved to the desert and I've never done this before, but I decided to visit YELP for recommendations on AV guys. I've been a residential real estate agent in both Orange County and the desert communities for over 25 years and have a host of qualified guys, but did not have an AV guy in the desert. We met with my sister's AV guy, but after meeting Shawn -- I felt comfortable giving him the job. Seriously -- the only recommendation I had for Shawn was from YELP and we agreed to install four new TV's. I said -- please give us the simplest set-up and he fulfilled our requests. My husband had a couple of questions and he returned on a Saturday AM. Shawn and his son did the majority of the installation in one day .... I can highly recommend both of them! DM me if you need more information. Lisa G. read more

SMG Audio Video - Shawn helping my husband navigate the new Sony TV - Home Theatre Installation Near Me

Shawn was the best! I called around 10:00 am. He showed up around 12:30 the same day. He hooked up my tv and cleaned it. We had just moved in. He was amazing and friendly. Great rate. Honest and fair. What a nice guy, Will definitely use him again and again. read more

When we moved to Palm Springs, we contacted several companies that did audio / control 4 systems. We got multiple bids. Some were higher than Shawn's and some were lower. The big difference was Shawn's willingness to tailor to his bid to what we felt we could afford and what was necessary. No other outfit was willing to discuss and shape their bid to our desires. When it came time for installation - he worked with the structure of our house, which was challenging, and adapted, communicated and macgyvered to the best of his ability. Since installation, he has been communicative, receptive and available for questions big and small and sometimes naive - all with a smile and complete professionalism. read more

I ordered a new tv on Black Friday but forgot to arrange an install. Called SMG first thing Monday and they were able to get me in on New Years Eve a day after the TV was delivered. They thought of doing stuff to make it easier and a more aesthetic install before I did, and did an amazing job! So glad to have a place to refer all my buyer clients and friends to when this question comes up! Already planning another project so I can get them to clean up my past installs by others! read more

I thought Shawn and his sidekick Shawn Jr. had a daunting task trying to get through this limestone, but they accomplished it with great professional ease at a fair price. Very happy with the outcome! read more

SMG Audio Video - What a difference. - Home Theatre Installation Near Me

Shawn responded quickly to my problem and made short work of the solution. I would award 10 stars! If you are looking for quality work for a fair price, look no further! You've found your guy! read more

Sean responded quickly, showed up on time and was very knowledgeable and efficient at installing my system. His pricing was very reasonable. I honestly can't say enough good things. I highly recommend his services. I would definitely call on him again. read more

Shawn was efficient and knew his stuff. After a prior failed attempt by someone else to install our TV, Shawn came in and did the work flawlessly! Thanks so much for mounting our beautiful TV! We will for sure be using you for all of our home theater needs! read more

I called Shawn looking for someone to wall-mount our new TV, told him I did not need a quote just "come out, do a good job and charge me a fair price". Shawn (JR) and Lexi just left, they not only did a beautiful job but charged me what I gotta believe is an extremely reasonable / more than fair price. They were both very knowledgeable / capable, and answered any and all questions we had about getting the most out of our purchase. I could not recommend SMG more and if I could I would have given them 6 stars. read more

Shawn did an outstanding job installing my home theater and whole home music audio system. Not a single cable or piece of equipment in sight! I am most happy with how easy everything is to use. Now I can enjoy my music anywhere in and around my home, and I can have a movie theater experience in the privacy of my own home with 4K quality and exceptional Dolby atmos sound! read more

Great service and Shawn is very knowledgeable. He was able to take care of all our issues without a problem.

Shawn always does a terrific job. I have used his installation services three times and have been very happy with the work. He is very professional and gets the job done. I highly recommend him for your wall mounted tv installations. read more

Shawn was fantastic! I purchased 65" TV from Costco (an upgrade from my 55") Thinking I could simply plug and play.....well.....not so much! My configuration wouldn't allow for my new TV to fit. So I'm sitting around with a brand new 65" Samsung and can't even watch it. Shawn was the first person I reached out to based on other Yelp reviews, and I was NOT disappointed. He came out as quickly as he could, (1 day later) and saved the day!! I can now watch my NINERS on Sunday Night Football!! We are also going to hire him to do some speaker installation come the first of the year. read more

Sean and his daughter are excellent. They listened to what we wanted and proposed two solutions from which to choose. They installed a whole house system for TV and music, completing their work within two days. Seven surround sound ceiling speakers were installed, leaving the place spotless at the end of each day. Their work is better than a larger company we used in our previous house and were less expensive. One adjustment needed to be made and Sean arrived at our house within 2 hours of our call. Great service, experience and knowledge all at a reasonable price. read more

Very satisfied with the service and friendliness. Very professional and respectful of our space. Worked with us to find the right solution for our needs. Honestly our job was super simple (one TV mounting), but they treated it like it was important: confirming the height and details like where we wanted the the cable box mounted, etc. He even helped me while I was unsuccessfully trying to install a new thermostat. I would give them 10 stars if I could. read more

I would love to have experienced the fabulous service reported by many customers of SMG Audio Video. Unfortunately, I have tried to contact them via phone and email and have received NO response at all. Guess they don't need your business, or mine! read more

Shawn was great. After 3 AV techs that were unable to diagnose the problem and fix it, he identified the issue, offered options, and had it fixed immediately. Highly recommend. read more

I can't say enough about how great Shawn's work is! He was punctual, reliable, and his work is SUPER clean!! He's knowledgeable and works efficiently! He will definitely be doing further projects around our house! I will recommend him to anyone!!! read more

Great company and the owner Shawn is all about getting the job done. Responsive, well priced and top quality work. We had to redo our home entertainment system and surround sound. Shawn was quick to respond to our call. Came to our home and accessed the problem and was flexible on how best to address our needs. We agreed on a quote, the work was done quickly and we love our new system! Highly recommend their services. read more

Shawn did an amazing job mounting a 75" tv and installing a Sonos system . Shawn was very knowledge about the process and walked me through every step prior to install , not only did Shawn do the install he was able to pick up the tv due to me not having a truck and provided a longer HDMI cable at no charge . I would highly recommend Shawn for any home audio needs . Thank you Shawn for you help ! read more

SMG Audio Video - Home Theatre Installation Near Me

Shawn from SMG did an amazing job with my home theater, house music and outdoor speaker installation. His estimate was far below other quotes and results are awesome. Shawn and his crew were always on time and professional. They would leave the site clean at the end of the day and let me know the plan for the next day. I am thoroughly satisfied with the results and would freely recommend SMG to anyone considering AV equipment read more

Shawn is awesome. He was responsive to us when we first called, gave us a great estimate and completed the work quickly. He provided us good suggestions and listened to what we wanted. The installation of two televisions along with a robust sound and video system went flawlessly and he definitely exceeded our expectations. We can't wait to recommend him to our friends! read more

Called the company yesterday (2/16/2021) and left a voicemail. They never bothered to call back. How great for their company that they are so busy that they can't bother to return a prospective customer's voicemail. So disappointing. My one star review is not fair because they never provided a service, but service also means returning phone calls, even to turn a job down. read more

Shawn is fantastic. He came out and gave me a quote on hanging our TV on a brick fireplace. Now, I had already been talked out of doing this by other companies, "because it's really difficult", according to them. Shawn came up with a plan after discussing my goals, scheduled a date and showed up on time. He hung the TV, new mantle and a sound bar. And ALL the wires are hidden. Thank you Shawn! A true professional! read more

Outstanding service. Shawn is a totally down to earth guy and was able to install my tv swivel/bracket quickly and professionally. My father in law can now watch his tv from the kitchen! Thanks Shawn for a spectacular job. Winning! read more

SMG is great!!! They have great prices and are the best in the valley. If you need AV help i highly recommend giving them a call read more

We've had Shawn complete a couple home audio projects and his work is first rate. Always on time and efficient with his work time. He leaves a very clean house when completed. Most importantly the audio system he installed exceeded our expectations and we will have him back when needed. read more

My first time ever rating. Shawn & his daughter installed 3 TV's, receivers, Sonos throughout house, VCR's etc. and did an excellent job about 8 months ago. But the greatest thing was calling him this Sunday when the TV in the living room wouldn't work. He called me back within a couple of minutes and walked me through the process of getting it functioning again and told me call him if it acts up again. Now, that is great service! read more

Shawn was stellar, a real expert at his craft. Arrived on time, took care of everything, explained everything patiently, and provided great follow up. He brought everything in, did the work efficiently, protected the floors and walls and left everything clean and tidy. Made the right receommendations and billed us fairly. Highly recommended. read more

Shawn's work ethic is outstanding. He came to our home and assessed our AV needs, asked pertinent questions, wrote up a quote and came back 2 days later with the equipment, new remote and basically everything that we needed, and no additional costs!!!! He is VERY clean, has a drop cloth, took his shoes off and was very personable. We would have him back immediately if the need arises. You would be doing yourself a favor utilizing his knowledge and services. read more

Installed our 65" tv on the wall and ran the cords inside the wall. Definitely recommend them.

Shawn and team did an amazing job installing a fully integrated TV and Audio system in our home in La Quinta. He met and exceeded our expectations! Thank you Shawn! read more
