I could not have been more pleased. I love the picture from the new equipment and was very pleasantly surprised at the prices for everything. (Price mentioned here is for the installation and HDMI cable only, not the equipment.) I consider myself pretty much technology ignorant so was also very pleased with the information I got from both Bob and Craig and their patience with my ignorance.
Description of Work: I wanted to purchase an HD TV and Blu-ray DVD player, but needed some advice on brand, size and features. It was important to me that I be able to use my current stand (an antique blanket chest) and the turntable that allows me to turn the TV so it can be seen from the kitchen. Bob came out and looked at my current set-up, recommended equipment and explained what I would need to request from my cable company after the TV and DVD player were installed. He sent me recommendations for the equipment and it was up to me to get it any place I chose. Once purchased, Craig came out and hooked up the new equipment to my old cable box and VCR. He showed me how the remotes worked, how to access on-line movie streaming, and answered all my questions. He left an HDMI cable for my cable company to use when they came to switch out my cable box and install the DVR.

Had alarms when we were on vacation Police and Fire; luckily Columbus Fire found an upstairs window for entry and didn't have to break in; found nothing wrong. Later, had a call from Tiger system owner that there was a malfunction in their data entry and the signals came up as our home instead of where the signals were actually sent from. It was rather scary since we were outside the continental US. George did check everything out for us and set our minds at ease.
Description of Work: Don't remember when we had alarm system installed or the price. George did the install and subsequent service, always does a great job. Total perfectionist! He is the face of the company I know they are lucky to have him. have had their monitoring for some years now, no major complaints.

I used Tiger Systems seven years ago to install the original plasma in the family room and was very pleased with their work then. After seven years, they got even better. Bob was quick to respond to my call for a quote. He scheduled and completed our appointment quickly and at a time that was convenient for my work schedule. I received a detailed and fair quote for quality work. Bob had some very good recommendations and we negotiated a few things that brought it into my budget while achieving every one of my objectives. (I rated a "B" for price because I could have bought some of the hardware cheaper and probably gotten a lower cost bid on the work. However, if the rating had been on VALUE, I would have rated A+. Quality costs a little more but is so much more wothwhile.) The team showed up when they said, got everything done on time and cleaned up the rooms as if nothing had happend. All the wiring is behind the walls and what you can see looks very professional. Like Tony says...Tiger systems is G-R-R-E-A-T!
Description of Work: I hired Bob and Tiger Systems to install a new 50" 3-D Panasonic Plasma and Onkyo receiver in our family room; and move and install our old plasma to the master bedroom. The "new" system was mounted on a stationary frame virtually flush with the wall and the new Onkyo receiver really livened up our 5.1 home theater setup. The "old" plasma was moved upstairs and installed on an articulating arm so we can move it out of the way when not in use. Bob's team did all the wiring and systems setup...even moving one of the cable boxes so the "old" system upstairs would get a better signal. The old monitor had no speakers but his team rigged up a behind the scenes (i.e. out of view) solution with a pair of small but powerful mantle top speakers that I had...sounds amazing!

Our original security system got damage due to a storm surge. Bob Levell tried to find a replacement part prior to replacing the system, which we had to do eventually. The installer was very professional and knowledgable. The installer found additional issues with the original security system and asked me about changes prior to keeping the old settings or changing the new.

They did a wonderful job! I messed the system up to the point where we were getting nothing upstairs. They came over and showed me exactly what I had done and how I could fix it in the future. They did not charge me a penny for that call. The first technician even took his shoes off right inside the door.
Description of Work: They set up our television with the cable and DVD player.

They specialize in audio, computer networking, home theater and security. We've recommended them to others and would call on them again.
Description of Work: They upgraded all of our cable so we could have cable on all floors of our home and in all the rooms we wanted. They ran all of the cables inside the home(through the walls)and not outside. We preferred that. They also checked our analog TV's and helped us understand what we had and didn't have. They moved TV's around for us as well and they adjusted a remote control for us so we didn't have to juggle using multiple ones.

They were great to work with. Their proposal was well-though out and the equipment was top-quality. The work was done quickly, neatly and very professionally. The installers were great.

Unreal-this company is top notch. Due to an unfortunate theft, I had to replace the television in our business. We bought the television and bracket, but were dreading the job of installing it. I called at 1:30 PM today to get someone out to install the TV. Bob spoke to me on the phone and said he would see if he could get someone out the same day. He called me back in minutes to say someone was on the way. Jay arrived by 2:15. He installed it so it would be more difficult to remove and made suggestions to further secure it. My new TV was unboxed, installed and running within an hour and a half.
Description of Work: Installed LCD TV.

The system was installed by Mike. He was very professional and courteous. We were a little disappointed that the system cannot be set up [with the monitoring company] to call my cell phone, in addition to the house, as requested. Because of my father's hearing disability, as well as living in a house with children, I wanted to be notified [as well as the house called], when an event takes place. We installed the system to be able to monitor what is going on at home, while away, as much as insuring the safety of my father and our children. The monitoring company was not willing to do that. I understand, however feel that the option should be available in today's world of technology, for an additional fee, which I am willing to pay.
Description of Work: We had a very special request--Bob and crew were very receptive to finding the latest on the market. We wanted an alarm for our sump pump, plus wireless smoke and CO monitors, which would be monitored to call our house, in the event of an alarm. [Elderly father lives with us, is very hard of hearing.] Bob was very helpful in suggesting products, providing us an estimate, and following up for install.

GREAT! Bob is very receptive, professional, and courteous. We received a prompt quote for further requests. The tech was very professional, took the time to explain all he had done, was helpful and made the system user friendly for the whole family.
Description of Work: Called office and talked to Bob. Set up an appointment for him to come give us an estimate on a custom home security system and brought a tech with him. The tech reconnected and set up our LCD TV, all cables, ran speakers through stereo system; as well as, hooking up the cable box, DVR, and DVD player. Also set up stereo system after we had rearranged the furniture in the room.

These guys are amazing. They were able to go through the tile without and breaking or cracking of the tile. They gave us good advice on the placement of the TV and even the purchase of one.
Description of Work: We had this company hang our television and run the wires under the floor to the other side of the room to a cabinet. They installed 2 cable outlets. One was in the backsplash tile and the other in the upstairs bedroom of our old house.

Tiger Systems was efficient and professional in doing this job from start to finish. A couple of days after I called Tiger Systems, consultant Jeff stopped by at an agreed upon time to assess our needs. He gave us a verbal estimate after a couple of days and as promised we received the written proposal a week after Jeff's initial visit. After we bought the TV, Tiger Systems took over. On the agreed upon installation day Kyle and Jeff brought the TV and all the appropriate wires and cables. They made sure they knew exactly where we wanted the TV and peripheral equipment located before they started. At the end they made adjustments to the controls so that we have just one remote instead of three to deal with. All involved made a project I had not been looking forward to painless!

They took 10 minutes max to respond to my voice mail and 1 hour later they were at my house. The representative corrected the mess that cable company had left me with. He set the remote so that it would work and corrected all settings. Very knowledgeable, very prompt, very nice and courteous. He didn't treat me like an idiot. Thumbs up!

They were honest about the costs of installing their own system vs. Resetting the existing panel. It was more cost effective to reset. The work was fine, except that we had to work around the technician's schedule (who also happened to be one of the partners in the company), but we wanted to have the best tech, so we waited for him to become available. They are a company that tries to please their customers, and they are open to feedback and discussion.
Description of Work: Reset the existing alarm control panel, coded the keypads & ensured the system was working properly (including both fire and house alarms) when we moved into a home with an existing alarm system that had not previously been monitored by any alarm company.

Bob did a terrific job in coming over to look at our existing theater space & suggested a retailer to purchase speakers from. He also came to the store with us to look at them, which was a real plus. His expertise in that area came in handy while shopping for the items. He was also able to get another price quote for the same speaker items from another store as well so we could compare. He came back a second time to make sure the speakers we selected would look right in the space before they were finally ordered. There were two technicians who installed the speakers & set everything up. Bob came back a couple of days later at our request to make sure it was all done properly. There was an adjustment that had to be made that Bob took care of.
Description of Work: Installed speaker system in home theater and connected all of our units through the receiver (e.g. DVD player, cable box, etc.) and set the universal remote control for it to operate all three.
