Audio video installation services (also called audio visual or AV installation) cover the design, cabling, mounting, programming, and support of sound and video systems: conference rooms, video conferencing, displays and video walls, digital signage, multi-room audio, home theaters, and smart control systems. Los Angeles IT provides custom audio and video installation for businesses and homes across Los Angeles County, with the network and cabling done by the same team.
Every project starts with a free consultation and site survey. You get a written quote before any work begins, and service calls after installation are billed at $95 per hour with no contract.

Unlike most audio visual companies in Los Angeles, we're also an IT company, so the network, Wi-Fi, and cabling are handled by the same team.

Our AV Installation Process
From Site Survey to Training Day in Four Steps
One project manager from the first call to the final walkthrough, so you always know what's happening and when.
STEP 01
Consult & survey
We visit the space, check acoustics, lighting, power, network, and wall access, and learn how you'll actually use the room.
STEP 02
Design & quote
You get a system design, equipment list, timeline, and fixed written quote. Nothing is ordered until you approve it.
STEP 03
Install & program
We run cable, mount displays and speakers, build the rack, program the controls, and calibrate the audio for the room.
STEP 04
Train & support
We test everything with you, train your team, hand over documentation, and stay on call for support afterward.
Pricing
How Much Does AV Installation Cost in Los Angeles?
AV installation is priced per project, because a two-display conference room and a 12-zone restaurant are very different jobs. After a free site survey, you get a fixed written quote with equipment, labor, programming, and training broken out, so there are no surprises.
The biggest cost drivers are the number of rooms or zones, display size and type, how much new cabling is needed, whether walls are open or finished, and the control system you choose. Service calls, troubleshooting, and changes after installation are billed at $95 per hour, with no maintenance contract required.
Because we also handle your network and cabling, you don't pay a second contractor to get the AV system online.
What's included in every AV quote
- Site survey and system design
- All equipment listed by brand and model
- Cabling, mounting, and rack build
- Programming and calibration of controls and audio
- Testing before handoff
- Training for your staff or family
- Documentation: system diagrams and user guides

Audio & Video Distribution
How Multi-Room Audio and Video Distribution Works
Video distribution sends every source, like cable boxes, streaming players, gaming consoles, and computers, from one central equipment rack to any screen in the building. Each TV or display can show something different, or everything can show the same thing for a big game or a company announcement. No duplicate boxes behind every screen.
Audio distribution does the same for sound. Music and announcements play in separate zones, such as the dining room, bar, patio, and restrooms in a restaurant, or the kitchen, living room, and backyard at home, each with its own volume and source.
Both run from a central matrix switcher or AV-over-IP system and are controlled from an app, wall keypad, touch panel, or voice assistant.
Where multi-zone AV makes sense
- Restaurants and bars: different music in dining, bar, and patio
- Retail stores: background music and promo screens by area
- Offices: lobby signage, break room TVs, paging
- Country clubs and hotels: event rooms that combine or split
- Homes: whole-home music indoors and out
- Media rooms: one source, many screens
Smart Control & Automation
Smart Home, Lighting & Remote Monitoring
A good AV system should be easier to use than the remote it replaced. We program one-touch scenes, like "Movie," "Meeting," or "Dinner Service," that set the lights, lower the shades, switch the input, and set the volume at once.
For homes, we integrate audio and video with smart lighting (Lutron, Philips Hue), motorized window treatments, security cameras, and climate, controlled by touch panel, keypad, phone, or Alexa and Google Home.
Remote monitoring and support
Control4, Crestron, and Savant systems can be monitored remotely over a secure, encrypted connection. With your permission, we can check system health, reboot a frozen device, or push an update without a visit, often before you notice a problem.
- Secure remote access for authorized technicians only
- Smart power so equipment can be restarted remotely
- Clean low-voltage infrastructure and labeled racks
- Camera and security integration with alerts
After Installation
Training, Documentation & Ongoing AV Support
Every installation ends with hands-on training for your staff or family, covering daily use, meeting and event setups, and simple fixes. You also get system diagrams, equipment lists, and easy user guides, so the next person doesn't have to guess.
A dedicated project manager oversees your installation from planning through final commissioning: scope and timeline, equipment ordering and testing, coordinating installers and programmers, and verifying performance before handoff. Equipment is tested before it reaches your site to catch defects early.
Support options
- Hourly service at $95/hr, no contract
- Optional AV service plan for scheduled check-ups and priority help
- Remote troubleshooting for supported control systems
- Onsite repairs and changes from the nearest service hub
- Upgrades as your rooms or needs change
Why Los Angeles IT
One Company for Your AV, Network, and IT
Today's AV runs on the network. Conference rooms need Teams and Zoom accounts, displays stream over Wi-Fi, and control systems need secure remote access. That's why AV projects go wrong when the AV installer and the IT company are two different vendors.
One vendor
No finger-pointing.
The same team designs the AV, configures the network, and runs the cable, so problems get fixed instead of passed around.
Local
LA-based, with 10 service hubs.
Headquartered in Century City, with engineers across LA County for installs and fast service calls.
Simple
Easy for everyone to use.
One-touch controls, clear labels, and training, so your team uses the system instead of working around it.
Who We Install For

FAQ
Audio Video Installation: Frequently Asked Questions
How much does audio video installation cost in Los Angeles?
AV installation is quoted per project after a free site survey, because cost depends on the number of rooms or zones, display sizes, cabling needs, wall access, and the control system. You get a fixed written quote before work begins. Service, troubleshooting, and changes after installation are $95 per hour with no contract.
Do you install both commercial and home AV systems?
Yes. We install commercial AV for offices, conference rooms, restaurants, retail stores, hotels, country clubs, and event spaces, and residential AV including home theaters, media rooms, multi-room audio, outdoor audio, and smart home systems throughout Los Angeles.
Can you set up Microsoft Teams Rooms or Zoom Rooms?
Yes. We install and configure Microsoft Teams Rooms, Zoom Rooms, and Google Meet hardware, including displays, cameras, ceiling microphones, speakers, touch controllers, and wireless screen sharing, and we set up the accounts and network so the room works on day one.
What is multi-zone audio?
Multi-zone audio lets you play different music or sound at different volumes in separate areas, such as a restaurant's dining room, bar, and patio, or a home's kitchen, living room, and backyard, all controlled from one app, keypad, or touch panel. Zones can also be grouped to play the same audio everywhere.
How long does an AV installation take?
A single conference room or TV and sound bar install usually takes one day. Multi-room commercial systems, restaurants, and home theaters typically take several days to a few weeks, depending on cabling, wall work, and equipment lead times. Your quote includes a timeline.
Can you hide speakers and TVs?
Yes. We install invisible and in-wall speakers that are painted to match your walls or ceilings, and motorized TV lifts and drop-down projector screens that hide displays in cabinets, ceilings, or behind artwork when they aren't in use.
Do you provide training and support after installation?
Yes. Every project includes hands-on training and documentation with system diagrams and user guides. After installation, support is available at $95 per hour with no contract, or through an optional AV service plan with scheduled check-ups and priority help.
