I came across First Reflection AV on Yelp as I was researching businesses that could not only…read moreconfigure an AV system but could do one with in-ceiling speakers and hidden wiring. I just purchased a single family home with an open floor plan and a living room area that wasn't huge, so having any kind of exposed wiring was not an option and I didn't want to devote any floor space to speakers or speaker stands. I am also an audiophile so a fully wireless setup was not going to work for me. To top it all off my house was newly renovated and the walls recently painted so I had concerns about how many holes would have to be punched into my ceilings and walls in order to wire up the whole system. Enter Ron and his associate Joel. Ron was super responsive and after an initial consultation he put together a thorough, itemized, estimate that included his recommendations on equipment including speakers, controller, cabling (cables do matter!) and ultimately an upgraded A/V receiver. It wasn't cheap, but it was fair and in line with expectations. As for my concerns about lots of extraneous holes? I didn't need to worry. Joel deftly ran a CAT cable from the router in my office on one side of the house underneath my house all the way to the living room on the other side of the house, drilling only one small hole in the office floor and making one opening in the living room wall. Joel then leveraged that opening to skillfully run speaker wire up the wall to the ceiling where he needed to make only two additional openings (one in the wall and one in the ceiling) to run ALL the wiring necessary for 5 speakers in the ceiling for 5.1 channel audio plus 2 more speakers across the room for two channel audio in the kitchen. Only three extraneous openings for 7 in-ceiling speakers? Oh did I mention it was done in just two days?! Remarkable! As Ron had promised, they fitted and screwed the drywall pieces back into place perfectly to make it super easy for the painters to mud, sand and paint over it. You can't even tell where those holes were now. Another promise Ron made was that this system would produce the best sound quality I had ever experienced and he was right. I even prefer it to movie theater sound and Ron hasn't even calibrated my system yet (I wanted to wait for my new couch and to put down my rug since I knew that would affect the calibration process). The sound is rich, full and balanced. Not too bright sounding and not at all boomy (boomy bass is NOT an indication of good quality sound). Do not hesitate to use First Reflection AV! The investment is so worthwhile and I am BEYOND happy with the final result. I've included pictures as well (holiday decorations, dog and all).

Watching out for studs and wooden beams while positioning the speakers. Once the speakers were installed Rozel, setup the receivers and subwoofer. Then he did calibration of the speakers to make sure the sound quality is best for different seating arrangements within the room. Overall the work was very clean and tidy. Worked very efficiently, assistant Mo was quick as well. They together setup the cables with banana plugs, to avoid messy connections at the back of the receiver.

Much worse, he grew quite hostile and condescending as I asked him about it. I'm still not sure what he did not understand about my questions - or why they seemed to provoke him.

I work customer service in a highly technical field. I repair high end luxury vehicles. It's…read morealways in my mind that I'm handling the first or second most expensive item most folks own. Second only to their homes. I'm well aware of the exacting standards needed. The self discipline needed and the attention to detail and care for details needed to restore someone's prized luxury vehicle. Those same standards apply to working in or on someone's home. My previous reviews explain how I met Jake at Barker Tech. This is a new review with new perspective. It's been over two years since I paid Jake and shook his hand. In those two years Jake has reached out 3 times to check on my home and his work. It just seems to be how he is. In those two years I've reached out with some admittedly stupid questions and each time he's addressed my concerns without any snark or down talk that some techie guys use when speaking to plebes. I needed additional home tech stuff and naturally I reached out to Jake. His response was timely given his work load and he immediately offered elegant solutions to an inelegant problem. (Someone in my neighborhood is actively using my gravel yard as a dog pit stop and leaving me nasty surprises ). Jake offered some very clever options up to and including an outdoor speaker paired with my existing camera system (that he installed ) to politely ask the offending dog owner to remove their dog waste. Ultimately my wife vetoed the idea of me having the ability to leave audio messages for bad neighbors. But Jake's suggestion of an upgraded new camera with AI facial recognition and a wider field of view was perfect. Within a week Jake personally came back and upgraded the camera thus negating the one small blind spot the offender had been using. He kept his word. He sent me tutorials and worked with me not even being home to ensure that I was 100% satisfied with my upgraded surveillance view before leaving. Setting standards and holding yourself to them are key to excellence. Keeping your word and delivering what you promise are key to excellence. But. Excellence isn't derived from robot like adherence to guidelines. It's a combination of many intangible things. It's rare these days to encounter true excellence in almost any field. Jake at Barker Tech is an excellent example of excellence in action. Trustworthy. Reliable. Professional. Meticulous. Passionate. Informed and informative. Personable and Diligent. I'm a client for life.

I cannot recommend him highly enough for anything AV-related in your home.

The entire process was incredibly smooth, and I received my proposal much faster than I expected. What impressed me most was the professionalism, knowledge, and genuine attention to detail. My representative took the time to understand exactly what I was looking for and even recommended solutions and features I hadn't considered. It was clear that he wasn't just trying to sell me something, but genuinely wanted to help me make the best decisions for my home. I received proposals from three other companies, and Full Spectrum Technology Group stood out by far. The other companies took significantly longer to respond and didn't demonstrate the same level of expertise or attention to my needs. I highly recommend Full Spectrum Technology Group to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, professional, and responsive team. They've definitely earned my trust!

The raised price also covers our regular remote network maintenance, ensuring your network continuously runs at peak performance following the conclusion of the project. A large portion of business model is our post-install support and efforts to create peace of mind for our clientele regarding our systems." However on that quote was also a $70/mo service plan that was supposed to cover the aforementioned post-install support. I asked about the double charge for support and asked if I could bring my own equipment and they ignored my email So this company is SUPER SHADY and please review your quotes and google any equipment that they tell you that you need because 1. you probably don't need it (we ended up fixing the internet ourselves) and 2. they are probably overcharging you. Just run the quote through Claude or ChatGPT and ask if there's anything concerning in it. It will do all the research for you.
