Sound Investment: High End Home Audio

NOVEMBER 12, 2009

Top-notch home audio systems with wireless control join the list of must-have amenities.

In the essence of New York City living, providing the infrastructure for a seamless audio experience is up there on the list of perks designed to entice potential new residents. At the Riverhouse at 1 River Terrace, you'll find built-in speakers in every room. At SkyHouse a model unit on recent view rocked a Crestron Home Automation Control System with wi-fi integration, iPORT In-Wall docking stations, in-wall keypads and a HD home theater.

Built-in systems are a brilliant opportunity for top audio brands to get exposure. The SoHo Renwick provides a cross-marketing bonanza for an audiophile favorite with its use of Bang and Olufson gear. Residents there could come home to BeoVision LCD TVs, BeoSound audio players and BeoLab speakers. iHolmes Technologies installs custom home entertaiment systems like the built-in surround sound systems in Brooklyn's ORO condos and high-end rentals like The Anthem in Murray Hill and BKLYN GOLD.

If you'd rather set up your own digital dominion, systems like Rocketfish will do away with your wires for less than the price of a custom job. Other resources for outfitting your home with wireless audio and A/V bling include Unplgged, Electronic House and Switched.
