We don’t recommend hiding your antenna in the roof, as:
Tin roofs can interfere with reception
Foil insulation or reflective surfaces can make signal pickup impossible
Tile roofs may be possible, but image quality can’t be guaranteed

To access Digital TV:
New TVs are usually “Digital Ready” and need to be tuned in
Older analogue TVs require a new TV or a Set Top Box (STB)
Subscription services like My Star from Austar are usually digital ready

If you’re experiencing poor image quality:
Contact VisComm for a TV calibration and antenna realignment
We’ll assess your current TV system and provide an onsite quote for an upgrade if needed

Adding new TV points can cause:
dB loss, reducing signal quality
Older homes may have poor-quality cables, antennas, and connections, making it difficult to transfer a good digital signal
In most cases, a full replacement system may be necessary to accommodate new points and the digital signal.

Home Theater Setup

The bigger and more open the space, the better the sound quality will be. This is because sound waves need room to move and dissipate. A smaller, symmetrical room can cause sound waves to bounce back and create chaos.

Key components include:

Voice-matched speakers: Ensure all speakers sound similar and are from the same manufacturer

Amplifier power: Choose an amplifier that can handle the speaker’s power requirements

Calibration: Ensure speakers are calibrated to work together in your room for optimal performance

The main factor is quality. A higher-priced system will deliver:

More dynamic performance

Higher levels of detail and realism

Effortless sound reproduction

Audition different systems to educate yourself on what makes an ideal system for you. Compare expensive and affordable systems to determine your budget and quality expectations.

Don’t panic! If your room is pleasant for conversations, it’s likely fine for a home theater. You may not need to spend thousands on acoustic treatments. Consult with a professional to assess your room’s acoustics and provide personalized advice.

In Wall / Ceiling Speakers

The number of speakers needed depends on the size of the space and desired sound quality. Generally:

Larger spaces benefit from 4 smaller speakers for better audio balance

Sonos Amp can power up to 4 mono ceiling speakers or 6 Sonos in-ceiling speakers

Consider independent control between rooms, which may require a separate Sonos Amp per room

In-wall speakers offer:

Excellent sound quality

Space-saving design

Ability to blend with interior décor

Resilience and long lifespan

Moisture-resistance for installation in bathrooms and laundry rooms

One size fits all doesn’t really apply to in-wall speakers because different rooms tend to be used for various types of listening. during a rec room or house, you’ll probably sit in a very specific spot to listen to music or the surround sound of a movie track at relatively high volumes. during this case, the most important, best-sounding in-wall speakers you’ll be able to afford, positioned at ear level when seated, are going to be your best bet.

A kitchen or dining room, on the opposite hand, could be a place where you would possibly want low-key sound distributed evenly throughout the space, so an array of in-wall speakers will work. Smaller areas like bathrooms or hallways, tend to be used for background audio. For rooms like these, one “stereo” dual voice coil speaker will do the trick. make certain your speakers are moisture-resistant when installing in bathrooms or laundry rooms.

If using digital 5.1 surround sound formats like Dolby Digital or DTS, a subwoofer can enhance the low-frequency effects channel. However:

Main stereo speakers with sufficient bass response can bypass the subwoofer

Surround speakers should match the sound quality, power, and efficiency of the front three speakers

Multiroom Audio

Multi-room audio allows you to control and play music in multiple rooms of your home using a single device, such as your smartphone or tablet.

With multi-room audio, you can:

Play music from your favorite streaming services or personal library

Control music playback in any room with connected speakers

Schedule music to play at specific times, such as waking up to music

Easily move music playback from one room to another

You can have up to 32 speakers/devices in a single network. However, performance may be affected by the number of speakers.

You have two main options:

Wired speakers: Higher quality and consistently produce uninterrupted sound, but may be more complicated to install.

Wireless speakers: Offer more convenience and flexibility, with easy movement and portability.

Our team at VisComm can help guide you in selecting the best system for your needs and preferences. We’ll consider factors such as sound quality, convenience, and installation complexity to find the perfect fit for your home.

Security Surveillance and CCTV

A DVR (Digital Video Recorder) converts analog camera footage to digital and records it on a hard drive. An NVR (Network Video Recorder) records and manages footage from digital (IP) cameras, with advanced features like AI and analytics.

AI-powered surveillance offers advanced features like facial recognition, object detection, intrusion detection, people counting, and heat mapping. These features enhance security, provide valuable insights, and improve overall surveillance efficiency.

Motion detection is a software feature that detects changes in pixels when the camera captures movement. The software alerts the system to start recording, and sensitivity can be adjusted to minimize unnecessary footage.

The amount of footage stored depends on the number of cameras, frame rate (FPS), and hard drive size. Our pre-configured systems can store several weeks of footage when set to motion detect mode.

Yes, with our NVR systems, you can access your surveillance footage remotely using your smartphone, tablet, or computer.

No, our NVR systems come with built-in AI-powered features, and our team will configure and optimize the system for your specific needs.
