Everything went smooth as promised. Kevin was flexible to be there at precisely the time I needed them so that it coordination with our cable installation schedule and the Royal's game that was playing later that day. The job took a little longer than he expected due but they stayed to complete it... without charging extra for surprises they encountered. They were very consultative and provided expert suggestions that I'm glad I listened to. Extremely professional! Everything looks great and great today. I'd recommend them... in fact I just referred a friend to them today.
Description of Work: They mounted 3 televisions and a sound bar. Also set-up to use with RF universal remote so that components can all be completely hidden.

I had used Kevin and team at SoundBytes earlier this year to reconfigure our Home Theater in a Box system and set up two universal remotes in our previous home. I was so pleased with their service that when we spontaneously decided to move to a new house, there was no question as to who I wanted to mount our flat screen TVs, install a new Bose sound bar and generally get everything up and running. Kevin and I corresponded in advance and he addressed a number of questions I had. On the appointment day, Kevin and his colleague, Brandon, arrived right on time and worked for nearly seven hours, part of which was spent assessing an unforeseen problem they ran into with regard to cable outlet positioning in our master bedroom. They returned three days later to deal with that problem and had everything up and running well. Two weeks later, I asked Kevin to come back out and install three new cable boxes, as I had decided to change my cable service configuration, and also to deal with a couple minor issues we'd been experiencing with one of the universal remotes. He handled everything on my list and all components are operating flawlessly. Only after this last visit did he bill me for his / Brandon's services, as he wanted to be sure I was fully satisfied before he did so. I thought his price was extremely fair. Kevin is a rare business person in this day and age. He does what he says he's going to do, does quality work, and is not satisfied until his customer is satisfied. I have communicated with him via text message, email and in person and he is always excellent about getting back to me. My job was quite small in the overall spectrum of things he and his colleagues work on but he never made me feel like anything other than his top priority. I would give him and the SoundBytes crew my highest recommendation!

I was able to schedule a walk-through with Kevin (one of the owners) within a week of initially contacting SoundBytes through Angie's list. He listened very well and did a great job of recommending a reasonable solution for the size and scale of my home. I received an estimate within a couple of days and scheduled the work within a week of receiving it. One the appointment day, Kevin and two co-workers showed up exactly on time and wrapped up all of the work within a couple of hours. They were hampered somewhat by the national ATand T Uverse outage that morning but if they were frustrated, it certainly didn't show. When they were finished, Kevin sent the two co-workers on to their next job and stayed behind to give me a thorough tutorial on the operation of the new remotes - he had to go through it twice since operation was slightly different in each of the location in the house. It was a great experience working with SoundBytes from start to finish and I will definitely use Kevin and team again for future home electronics-related projects.
Description of Work: Replaced existing home theater in a box system with new system; provided two universal remotes and one infa-red base station to consolidate operation of TV, cable and home theater.

Since I moved I needed to have my four TV's, blu-ray, and DVR installed and set-up, I contacted this business thru email and received a prompt response. My equipment is a few years old and it took some additional time to program a new universal remote; however, I was very pleased with the set-up and the directions provided on the new remote. I also received contact information in case I had questions on the set-up and the remote. I will definitely use this business again and highly recommend them.

3/2013 - I emailed Chris with a troubleshooting question on my Onkyo receiver. Chris called back promptly with a potential solution and offered to come out if it didn't work. It worked!! The customer service from these guys is amazing. They are worth every penny!!
Description of Work: This is a follow up to previous work completed. In 1/2012, Chris and Kevin installed a 7.1 in-ceiling surround sound and a 60" wall mounted TV in our basement. They also installed a 50" wall mounted TV in our bedroom. We had all the components from a previous house, and they were willing to save us money at every opportunity. We did purchase a 60" Sony for our living room from them and pricing was very competitive to the big box stores.

The SoundBytes team did a wonderul job installing our video equipment (including climbing ladders in 100+ degree temps). The configuration works great and met all of our expectations. We had purchased some of our equipment (thinking we could install it). Unlike other companies SoundBytes didn't try to pressure us into 'their' equipment. We were given a detailed quote that included all of the things SoundBytes thought were good ideas (and they were) for us. We were not forced into buying things we didn't need or didn't have the budget for at the time. We got what we wanted and are very happy with what we got.

I invited three Angie's List contractors in for quotes, including Kevin from SoundBytes. I'm a huge music fan, so Sonos was a priority. Kevin had in-depth knowledge and experience setting up these systems. They were not the cheapest quote, but I had much more confidence in the SoundBytes team, so selected them. I was not the easiest guy to service. I started off wanting a surround system with in-wall speakers and they provided me with quotes. I slowly modified my requirements over time and decided to use my budget for high quality, floor-standing front speakers instead of a surround theater (I listen to music more than I watch movies). I also purchased a Sonos zone speaker for upstairs. Kevin and Chris were awesome throughout the process. I set an appointment to visit their showroom with a stack of CD's so I could demo speakers and talk more about the project. Although I know they were busy, they were always patient with me. The installation was a breeze and they took the time to get Sonos installed on every computer and device in our home. At the conclusion of the installation, Kevin spent about 30 minutes walking me through how to use the remote. Would highly recommend these guys. If you're shopping Angie's, pay a few dollars more to get the best service. They are there for you after installation to help troubleshoot. We're now adding on outdoor speakers with them and I'm sure will expand our media room(s) over time.
Description of Work: I used SoundBytes KC to prewire my unfinished basement and then come back to install the following: - Wall mount a 55 inch LCD TV - Assemble a component rack under a stairwell to conceal components - Hook up all components and a universal IR/RF remote I purchased a Denon Receiver and Sonos system from them and used my own blu-ray and speakers.

Kevin arrived on time, got the system running again, and showed me how to make connections for streaming video from computers so that the connections will not be messed up over the next holiday. Also helped me with a networking problem with my printer. Cost was reasonable and Kevin did not talk down to me because I could not get things working on my own.

Response from KCTVguyz LLC
Member, I responded via email (gmail) to your account 12/3 advising you when you could reach us the following Monday AM and both our cell phone numbers. I also show I left a message last week on the number you left, but hadn't heard back from you after that. (Sound issues in Mission Hills from prior installation company not done correctly?) Left you a message that my name is Kevin and please call... We are in our busiest season, so once we return calls, we don't often get the luxury of continuing to call that inquiry, as we assume you might have found someone else to resolve your issues. Please call my cell phone @ 816-547-8897 to discuss you issues... .

After 2+ hours of very diligent analysis, and alternative setups through trial and error, Kevin determined that the issue was a defective cable box. He solved the problem that 2 service reps from the TV and DVD maker + a service rep from the cable company couldn't solve. Think about that when looking for someone that can - and really WILL - help you with your AV problems and/or setup.
Description of Work: Audio problems related to an AV system that includes a 52" plasma TV, cable box, audio receiver and 2 DVD recorders. Keven with Soundbyteskc inspected the current connections, analyzed the problem, and initiated multiple solution paths while also greatly simplifying the multiple connections to the various pieces of equipment.

Excellent response to our initial inquiry. Prompt estimate and excellent suggestions about how to make the system more functional. Came when promised and completed a fairly difficult job on time and at the price quoted.
Description of Work: Wow. Sound Bytes worked wonders in our old, historic home. They set up a terrific sound system for the main floor, including home theater functions and universal remote. They re-routed cables and set up a second system up stairs. Nice work!

I like high end audio systems, my wife has a major issue with free standing speakers and component racks. Checked Angies List and found Sound Bytes, glad it did. I'm not impulsive and study the heck out of stuff before I make a decision. Looked at B&W and Moton products that I planned on purchasing and hiring some one to install. Chris Kemp came over, listened to what I had planned including my wife's concerns. He explained the difficulty of getting a good sound system in the room we had to work with. High ceilings, wood floor, and large wall openings. He recommended Totum Accoustic in ceiling speakers with a in wall sub that would be mounted behind our sofa. Never heard of Totum Accoustic so I contacted a B&W dealer in St. Louis to confirm it was a good product. Dealer said he had a set at home and loved them. Still skeptical, Chris ordered in a demo speaker from the Manufacuter and did a demo at our house. I was sold. I had a outlet to get a highend Onkyo AV Reciever at a very good price. Chris matched the price and convinced me to purchase from him for warranty. Good advice, the unit had some issues shortly after install, Chris replaced it promtly at no cost. We also purchased a radio controlled universal remote. Once the system was installed Chris and crew trained us onhow to operate the system. Allot to soak in, Chis had to come back and re train us of which he did promtly with no additional charge. The system rocks, blue ray amazing. Threw a party to watch the Chiefs get upset in Okland, TV surrond sound was like being there. Tunes after the game blew my guests away.

Kevin was very courteous and professional from the very beginning. Arrived as scheduled and did a great job on all installations. After chatting on hi-fi systems, he suggested checking out some Totem Acoustic speakers. He brought a pair to my home and let me test and enjoy them for a few days. I decided to place an order for these. The speakers arrived promptly. Kevin then proceeded to instal the speakers running cables behind walls. The final result was excellent sound quality and great esthetics. Given Kevin's expertise, professionalism and courtesy, I have no hesitation recommending his services to other users of Angies List.

Trust me... You are a fool if you do not hire this company. You deal with the OWNERS every time. They are honest. On time and good guys. I had three other companies bid our job. Chris & Kevin were a FRACTION of the price and the service was over the top. We need the job done by a big game... both stayed late on a Friday night and made it work. The system rocks. My wife and I chuckle at our neighbors who spent four times as much for half as much. In fact, one of the them actually pulled out a system that was a month old and had Kevin & Chris do an install. As I said.... you are a FOOL IF YOU DON'T USE THESE GUYS. Ask them for a reference... I am happy to take a call.....

Awesome. Both Kevin and Chris are professional and do exactly what they say they'll do for the price quoted. These guys are really good at listening to what the customer wants. They adapted to me already having existing equipment and working around the sound system and projector that I already had.
Description of Work: Ran cable tv and ethernet cables into the master bedroom, guest bedroom, living room, and office of an already finished home. Explained exactly what my options would be. Offered to "cap" the labor if the job was more difficult than originally planned. Also recommended and installed a professional grade remote control and programmed it for me. Also, hung speakers and wires behind walls and installed an HD projector for me. Also used SoundBytesKC to order a Sonos multi-room sound system as a separate project.

I requested a proposal from several companies from Angie's list. Chris and Kevin visited the house during the construction phase and worked with me on concepts. They spent a lot of time discussing options and I felt they had the best vision of what I wanted to accomplish. I liked that I could handle much of the discourse by email. I hired them to do the pre-wire for the basement prior to drywall installation and then come up with a theater concept. Kevin gave me several options to choose from Our room is a little small for a project (at least one company dismissed the idea altogether), but Kevin found a projector that works perfectly in the space. Installation was done in one day and they made sure that all components were configured correctly and made sure I was comfortable with operating everything. Within a week or so, I began having problems with a dropped signal. Chris and Kevin were quick to respond and returned within a day or so to troubleshoot the problem. They ended up installing new cables and finally swapping out the receiver. I'm very happy with how everything looks and sounds - it's a true home theater experience and custom to our living space.

Kevin took a lot of time and discussion to work with our challenge and find a solution to fit this equipment into a space that was initially too small. Made it fit nicely and made it it aesthetically pleasing. Kevin is passionate about finding a solution and making it work for the customer. Very knowledgeable with an obvious high interest in today's AV technology. Friendly and very easy to talk to. Normally would have tried to install something like this myself, as I have many times in thepast but the technology has changed a great deal in the last few years. Kevin did a much better job than I could have. We were both very pleased and very happy we chose Kevin for this installation.
