Excellent. I highly recommend Steve Farabee, and Texas Home Technology. Steve is a gentleman in every sense of the word plus He knows what he is doing. He had a to deal with a complex situation in my case, and he ended up doing great. he Replaced old Speakers, ran new wiring, installed new speakers. Then set up the new amplifier and Sonos sound System, which is amazingly good. Steve is very careful to remove every spec of dust. He never leaves any debris behind. I thought Steve delivered flawlessly on what we agreed, and he was a real joy to work with. Based on my experience with him, I highly recommend him for any sort of Home Theater, and Home Audio installation needs.
Description of Work: Steve and his crew ran speaker cables in the Attic, and installed 10 speakers inside and outside of the house, and set us up with a complete Sonos sound System..

Steve was courteous, professional and pleasant from our initial contact all the way through job completion. I had a couple less-positive experiences in the home theater realm (folks not bothering to respond to communication, bids written for work I did not request or omitting items I requested. Steve listened to my requirements and presented me with a bid that reflected exactly what I outlined. His communication was always prompt and professional and he made me feel like a valued customer immediately. On the install day, Steve and Brett showed up exactly at the scheduled time and kept me informed of all work and involved in decisions that affected my family's entertainment preferences. The work was completed as outlined in the bid and Steve even returned to my home the following Saturday because I had forgotten to request that the TV be directly connected to the 5.1 surround (as opposed to passing through the STB only) so that I could enjoy online content in 5.1. I told Steve that I had several A/V folks to the house to bid the initial job, but that I was most interested in forming a long-standing relationship with someone I could depend on. I found exactly that in Texas Home Technology

It went very well--the problem was solved
Description of Work: Steve helped solve a problem that I had with my home multi-room audio speakers. He methodically worked through the problem until he found the source of the problem--an amplifier channel had blown out. After I had the amp fixed, he assisted me with the re-installation process as well

I wasn't exactly sure what I wanted done when I called Steve. I knew I wanted one tv mounted, but wasn't sure about the overall solution for both TVs and both rooms. Steve listened to my concerns and understood what I was trying to achieve. He did a lot of quick design and architect work on the fly. He was able to design and install solutions that were better and more affordable than I had anticipated. Steve worked quickly and efficiently to reroute cables from the attic to the appropriate walls. He moved cable boxes and DVD player into the closet behind one of the TVs to create a seamless and efficient solution. It also looks great and works perfectly. This required moving outlets, cable feeds, etc. There were a couple of different options on remotes or signal devices to allow the remotes to work from closet to the bedroom. We came up with the most economical and reliable solution. It also looks amazing and really saves space. In our game room / media room we were trying to determine how to set up our 70" TV. Net, net he again listened and then quickly designed a solution and got to work. It was less expensive to mount a 70" TV than to buy a case to support it! All of this required brackets HDMI cables, etc. He breaks down the cost of everything and all of his parts, components prices and labor are really competitive. Everything is precisely measured and fitted the way you want it and to look really good. Steve then cleans everything, tests everything and makes sure you are completely satisfied. This was a fantastic job and I highly recommend Steve!
Description of Work: Steve mounted two TVs on walls. One of the TVs was a 70". He moved cable box and DVD player into closet so wall mounts were clean and concealed. This all required moving cables from attic and different walls. This guy knows his stuff! He was with Time Warner for 24 years.

It was a pleasure dealing with Steve from beginning to end. He personally answered my call and provided an immediate service call appointment that met our schedule. He was punctual, professional, and provided high quality service at a very fair price. We were totally satisfied and will use Texas Home Technology for our future needs.
Description of Work: Steve and Wayne replaced a satellite TV receiver, performed set-up steps, and checked out everything for functionality. He coordinated with satellite provider and ensured everything was ok.

Jamie was professional, competent and made sure we understood everything about what he had done and how to operate every aspect of our home system. Jamie could not have been better.
Description of Work: Jamie took a system that was non-functional after a switch of cable providers, diagnosed the issues, rewired the system, synced the remote to all systems, assisted in making the second TV movable, answered all questions about system operation and left us completely in control of every aspect of our system. For the first time since purchase, everything works perfectly.

Description of Work: I hired Texas Home Technology to mount a 55"" LCD TV on the wall of my living room, including running low-voltage signal cable (HDMI, component video, SPDIF optical, etc.) through the wall, and adding an electrical outlet higher up on the wall (behind the mounted TV). They showed up on time and did an awesome job, including cleaning up very well when they were done. They were very detail-oriented, for example, they made sure that the height of the TV mount was exactly where I wanted it. At the end of the job, the TV looked great mounted on the wall! I would most certainly hire these guys again.

Steve came to house to determine our needs and ordered 2 missing TVs and all components sparing us the headache of shopping. He and his helper pulled new wiring hidden behind the sheetrock, installed speakers in the walls, connected all components and ran any necessary setup programming. He determined the cable connection in the master was not producing a good signal and helped communicate our problem with the cable company. They were polite and their work was professional and tidy. The project was turn key and ready to use. Steve went through everything before departing and followed up with a phone call the next day. Later when painters took down the wall mount screen in the master bedroom and had trouble reconnecting, he talked them through it over the phone. The experience was all and more than we hoped!
Description of Work: We purchased a previously owned home with some pre-wiring. One HD TV conveyed with the house in built-in cabinets, but we didn't know how to set up our components and needed to upgrade our surround sound system. We also wanted to mount our flat screen TV on the wall in the master bedroom plus add a small flat screen in an exercise room, a large flat screen with surround sound in a game loft and set up a receiver and faux rock speakers in/near our outdoor kitchen. Texas Home Technology took care of everything!

Excellent.
Description of Work: This company is one person who provides very personalized services. He was quite responsive to a problem which I thought could have been quite serious. As it turned out the problem was minor and little time was involved. I think he can provide other home services in addition to my computer needs and he seems capable.

Steve came over and I told him what I wanted. He then emailed a quote the same day and once I gave him approval he ordered the parts and set a date to come back to install. He called to give me updates on the order and then when the parts were all in the came over and installed them. He actually took my old cable box to Time Warner and switched it out for me and after installing the mount, noticed that it was crooked so called the company that made the mount, took pictures and followed up to see what the problem was. It was a great experience throughout and I am thrilled at the setup.
Description of Work: Steve did the following for me. He mounted my flat screen TV, got rid of all the remotes replacing it with one "smart' remote, installed a sound bar that is unobtrusive but upgrades the sound quality, installed a gadget that lets me download Netflix directly to my TV as well as Amazon movies on demand, and linked my DVD, IPOD and radio. He also switched out my standard cable box for a HD cable box and hooked up all the cables so I can get HD channels. He also programmed the other remotes in my house so I only need one for each TV.
