FIND OUT WHICH SYSTEM SUITS YOUR HOME BETTER

What sets a mood better than music? Spotify, for example, has playlists for driving, exercising, relaxing, falling asleep, and romance, and that covers just a few of the activities and moods you can accompany with music. Services like Spotify, Pandora, and Apple Music have made it ridiculously easy to dial up most of the world’s recorded music on a smart device, so music is only a couple of clicks away with streaming.

There’s no doubt that streaming has revolutionized music consumption, and the equipment delivering it has changed quite a bit too. Old-school stereo systems and vinyl still exist and are thriving, but many people have turned to the convenience of wireless speaker solutions for background listening. While wireless speakers (like the plethora of Bluetooth models) can sound quite good, most will fall short of audiophile class and not compare well to more traditional speakers. Plus, these solutions don’t accommodate multiple speakers playing the same music in synchrony. Traditionally, multiroom audio systems have been built around a music source, distribution amplifiers to power built-in speakers in different rooms, and a unified method of controlling it.

Why Avidia Service Makes a Difference

In large metropolitan areas like Chicago, there is no shortage of service providers for practically anything you can think of - and that goes for home automation technology as well. The technology itself is important, and with smart home technology and automation, you should choose companies and platforms that continue to innovate and add new capabilities.

Since 2003, Control4 has been an innovator and leader in home automation. There’s very little their system can’t do when it comes to smart home control, and Avidia is proud to be a Control4 Platinum Dealer. In June, we detailed the latest software from Control4, OS 3, which adds significant functionality and ease of use to make it one of the most elegant and flexible home automation platforms.

While the technology is critical, who installs and services it is just as crucial to your overall experience and satisfaction. This month, we’d like to tell you why and how Avidia is different, and why you should choose us for your Glenview home’s Control4 smart home system.
