PROJECT:
Distributed Content @ Home
New Home Build / Multi Room Sound + Content Distribution
Rapallo were contacted by the owner as they were building a new home to assist with the AV spec and build.
The client wanted four aspects of their project managed by Rapallo:
- Multi-room sound through three zones.
- integration of sound bars onto living area TV’s (also used as sound zones).
- Setup and advice on a dedicated media room.
- Managed content distribution of Sky & Apple TV to 4 areas in the home with IR control.
Our team spec’d a Yamaha, Klipsch and Blustream product suite for the project. From the Yamaha Bar400 soundbars for three TV’s, to the Blustream HMXL44CS-KIT for content distribution. For sound in the three zones we used an existing Yamaha AVR to manage a range of Klipsch indoor & outdoor speakers to provide background or party sounds when the client required it.
The project consisted of the following Rapallo AV Design & Build services:
- Onsite AV Consultation – to ensure the setup matches the clients brief and the environment its being used
- Project Management
- Location Specific Custom Build & Installation
- Rapallo preferred suppliers
- Installation & setup – installation of the products / testing and training.
- Post installation Support
PROJECT:
Outdoor Entertainment Area
Rapallo were contacted by clients in Tauranga as they were building a new outdoor pavillion to link their house / pool / tennis court. They wanted some great sounds and to future proof the area, so at a later date they could install an outdoor theatre areas.. There were two key considerations:
- The systems were outside and needed to be environmentally sound, and
- Needed to be able to be added to at a later date;
- The sound needed to be GREAT
We supplied a Yamaha Aventage AVR (at this stage used only for MusicCast) and four Definitive Technology AW6500 outdoor speakers in black.
The outcome was fantastic, the client was over the moon with the sound and the look of them.
The project consisted of the following Rapallo AV Design & Build services:
- AV Consultation – to ensure the setup matches the clients brief and the environment before anything is built or ordered.
- Product Sourcing – sourcing products that are specific to an installation.
- Support – post installation support.
