Although this is probably one of the smaller LCD TV’s we’ve integrated into our systems, it is one of our favorites. This SunBrite LCD gives our client a great entertainment solution while enjoying the Jacuzzi and the ocean view.
Simply Sight & Sound, Inc. is proud to create Home Media Systems that revolve around some of our favorite Brands. Our current systems have featured Samsung 60-65″ 3D- Televisions and surround receivers from Denon and Onkyo along with wireless media sharing from Apple, via the Airport Express and the Apple TV.
With the release of the RTI iPanel, we’ve given our clients a new form of System Control. Having the iPad as the center of the Entertainment System, our clients can stream Panodora, iHeart Radio and other Apple Media (Movies, Music) to their Sound Systems, via the Airport Express and AppleTV. The RTI iPanel allows us to deliver a control system that is easy to use and can control devices while away from the house.
Here are some pictures of recently completed projects featuring Apple, Denon, Onkyo, and Samsung.

We just wrapped a major video surveillance retro fit project. We installed 13 Chanel Vision cameras in and around our clients property. Our intial layout for getting coverage of the front and rear points of entry gave us great camera positions, but we had two areas we wanted camera coverage, but we had no mounting surface.
So my trusty sidetech Pancho and I came up with the idea of installing 2 Cameras into a bird house. With the Bird House cameras, we could get a good view of the hidden front slope and street, and an unobstructed view of a front point of entry.
Our client loves the camera views, and the bird house!! The Bird House Color Scheme even matches our clients house!!
So now our client has a birds eye view of the house and can check in on their camera system with either their iPhone, iPad, Droid or PC.
