Ever walk into a house with speakers in every room but no way to control them from one app? Whole-home audio and video integration ties multi-room sound and video distribution into the same system running your lights and locks, instead of leaving it as a separate standalone setup.
Gilbert Smart Home Automation plans wiring runs based on whether you're retrofitting an existing house or working in new construction, since in-wall speaker wire access differs a lot between the two.

FAQs
Whole-Home Audio & Video Integration FAQs
How can I turn my house into a smart house with audio and video?
Start by mapping which rooms need audio, video, or both, then wire speakers and distribution gear into your existing automation hub. Most Gilbert homes do this in stages, starting with the main living areas.
How much does whole-home audio and video integration cost?
Most projects run $1,500 to $15,000 depending on zone count and whether you're adding video distribution on top of audio.
How long does a multi-room audio install take?
A two-zone system usually finishes in a day or two. Whole-home systems with six or more zones can take several days depending on wiring access.
Do I need a permit for in-wall speaker wiring?
Standard low-voltage speaker wiring usually doesn't need a permit. New electrical circuits for amplifier equipment closets might.
Can I add video distribution later if I start with audio only?
Yes. Most systems are built to add zones over time, so starting with audio and adding video distribution later is common.
