Today was the conclusion of the install at Buffington's Vintage Apparel in Valdosta GA. The wall mounted LCD's took some work as the wall they were on had been built onto what was the old exterior of the building some 60ish years ago I'm guessing. So, I sawed a channel out of the wall, and a smaller channel inside that one to hold the video cable in place. By saving the strip I cut from the wall, a patch job makes the wall look good as new. Elsewhere in the building we added distributed sound in the cafe, running off of airtunes, itunes wireless streaming, by running cables up the walls into the attic, and dropping lines to ceiling mounted speakers. The Apple airport express is used to receive the itunes stream, and the audio simply connects to a home receiver for the speakers' amplification, and volume control. In the front room, we mounted the Yamaha speakers, and bracketed them to the wall, neatly tucked the speakon cables against the molding, and organized a great deal of cables into the REC TEC LIVE style of wrapping and storing. You can find a cleanliness and level of care in projects like these that make the installation seamless. No-one notices anything, except how transparently the media blends with the surroundings in looks and in performance. I've got some pictures on my blackberry, but blogger is having trouble uploading them. Be on the lookout soon.
