Empire AV responded quickly to my inquiry about setting my hard-of-sight mother up with a voice controlled system in her new home. Eric was incredibly communicative and was able to get her on the schedule almost immediately. The install was seamless and he was incredibly patient with my mom in setting up the system. Very good experience! read more

Empire Audio Visual did a phenomenal job installing a home theater speaker system in my home. From start to finish, they were professional, prompt, and clearly experts at what they do. They offered thoughtful guidance throughout the process, worked efficiently, and left everything spotless. Best of all, the system sounds incredible--it totally transformed my space. Their pricing was very reasonable for the quality of work, and I wouldn't hesitate to use them again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for top-notch A/V installation read more

Very disappointed with the performance of the system package that cost me over $10,000 (I purchased their premium/top level speaker package and a number of other items they recommended). Before the installation, I shared my concerns below with the sales person/installer: 1. The size of the inwall speakers the recommended would not likely reproduce the full range of sound desired (especially midrange frequencies) 2. The soundstage produced by the front three speakers needed to anchor vocals to the faces onscreen - not localized to a speaker (especially not to the center channel located below screen). 3. I wanted clean but very strong bass performance that you could feel but not localize to a point in the room. After the installation I received a full demo and sure enough - they failed on all three points. - There is minimal midrange reproduction - The voices are localized on the center channel speaker (despite adjustments) - The powered subwoofer cost over $1,000, but lacks any real impact and it is easy to place where it is in the room I spent time afterwards with the installer sharing my concerns and asking for adjustments to be made. He made some efforts, but the equipment and configuration still produces very, very thin sound reproduction. There is no full range of deep rich sound in action movies (vehicle engines, explosions, etc.). Music on soundtracks sounds like it is playing out of a hand held radio. I told him I was not satisfied and not happy. All he could offer was to sell me additional speakers (left and right tower cabinet speakers and a second subwoofer), and he would give me credit back for two of the in wall speaker The amp is likely not adequate - should have gone with something higher current (Denon, Marantz or similar?). I trusted my money with their expertise/recommendations, and really feel like I failed to pick the right Home Theater company to accomplish a simple HT set up. The room is a dedicated HT room, only 14'x21' with 10' ceilings. I should have done more research. Lastly - on a personal note, I believe how an installer approaches "wire management" (see photos - no methodology) is an indicator of their attention to detail what standard they set for themselves. There is also a photo of their teeny tiny "premium" in wall speaker. read more

These guys were great! No bs, no trying to sell you things you don't need. Honest and straight to the point. They just finished up an install at my house in trophy club and it went great. Looks sooooo clean! read more

Erick and his crew showed up on time and completed both installs. They cleaned up everything and also hung a small shelf (no charge). Excellent communications and a very fair price. I HIGHLY recommend them... read more

Had a big project, 20+ drops done. Arduous experience, installation work left some to be desired, but after several follow up vists they got it 99.5%. In the end, just wasn't worth chasing down the last 0.5%. Probably fine if you need one or two drops but I'll look elsewhere for bigger post-construction residential work next time. To be fair, I am used to top tier SMB/Enterprise low voltage vendors, so my expectations were high from the get go. They addressed my concerns as they came up, it was just a good thing I had enough real-world experience to ensure the project was completed as I initially outlined in the statement of work. read more

Every time I use this service (2-3) I am very satisfied. they come in and quickly solve my problems and never leave a mess behind. the service people are knowledgeable and problem solvers. great service read more

The team at Empire AV did an excellent job. They were professional, on time, and mounted all of our TVs, projector screens, and sound bars perfectly. We cannot wait to use them again. read more

Fantastic experience. I found Empire through a Yelp search. I messaged them on a Saturday afternoon and got an appt for Monday. Couldn't believe how responsive they were. Installation went smoothly. The professional showed up in the promised time window, mounted a 60" TV by himself, and was super patient with my questions and my baby's curiosity. He had all the equipment he needed, and cleaned up after himself. Entire process took 40 minutes from arrival to departure. Would 100% recommend. Awesome company. read more

Very pleased with Empire AV. They are very professional and friendly. They did at excellent job in our two conference rooms.

These guys really know their stuff. They installed my TVs. Reprogramed a remote and did some instruction. Don't hesitate to use them, they are great! read more

I previously used this company for surround sound speaker installation and programming. I bought a new Marantz receiver as my old one was no longer working and called the this awesome Dallas location to come out and connect all wiring and re-program my Harmony remote. Job well done! I will be recommending Empire AV to anyone and everyone in future! read more

Eric and Jared did a great full Atmos system install, setup outdoor speakers and security cameras all in a day! Very nice, knowledgeable and friendly team. Will definitely work with them again read more

Empire answered my inquiry looking for a media room service provider promptly on Yelp and were able to work around my less than spectacular schedule as a teacher to find a time that was suitable for me that would NOT require me to put in for a hard to find these day substitute teacher. When the plans for the proposed install of a replacement for my 4 zone audio system and relocation of the hub, was determined that it wouldn't be an easy rework, based on their inspection of existing speaker wiring, they were able to suggest an easier solution, while still giving me a choice of a more involved and expensive alternative to reroute the existing wiring to a new room I had originally planned. They installed a new Sonos system 3 amp setup I had ordered from Amazon, to replace an existing HEOS Drive 2. Even though they do a lot of HEOS installs, and could have provided me with a replacement instead, unlike other potential services, they were happy to install the Sonos system and shared with me their thoughts on the merits and benefits of it versus the HEOS system it replaced. They walked me step by step through the setup of a Sonos account, naming the amps and pairing of the amps to the app on my phone. They made sure that everything connected easily, worked properly, and showed me how to use the amp to turn on each of my zones, and operate them separately and in combination with one another. They made sure I was happy with the connection and sound quality in each of my 3 zones. I also needed them to fix the LED backlighting on my 110" screen in my media room- it had been flickering when it did turn on, and frequently not turning on at all in response to the programming on my MX-780 universal remote. I had even bought a string of replacement LED light strips to replace this evidently malfunctioning one, as I was sure the were toast after 5 years. Instead of just replacing them, they troubleshot the existing set, determined it was merely a busted power block and cord, and then replaced those items only with supplies they had on hand. They also noticed that my universal remote still had AT&T Uverse programmed on it and not the Direct TV I've had for the past 3 years. They suggested I could update it and get rid of the extra Direct TV remote- and although this was a no-brainer in hindsight- I was so preoccupied with the other two projects that I hadn't even thought of how annoying it has been to have to use a 2nd remote to watch games! Picking up on my needs and doing what's best for the client, even without being asked, and fixing something that would have been more expensive, taken more time, and ultimately made them more money, if they had followed my instructions and just replaced it, were two hugely impressive displays to me of the integrity, honesty, and commitment to excellence these guys provide for their customers. When all was said and done and the time and work for the install ended up being much less they their original online estimate based on the information I provided them, they informed me it may take a few days to refund me part of the difference from the deposit I had prepaid prior to their visit. I was so blown away that they felt they owed ME money and with their attention to detail, polite service, intuition on addressing needs I had not even considered, and the quality and care of fixing all that I had requested, that not only did I tell them to keep the full deposit, but to please go ahead and charge me the remaining balance and the full amount of their original estimate. Although I am just a teacher on a pretty meager budget, I recognize the value and quality of what Empire was able to do for me, and I was already prepared to pay a bit more- as estimates online based on client info and sight unseen, can only be so accurate. So, getting everything completed, slightly different than I had originally imagined, but still in a manner that reflected my needs for this install, plus saving me money on another task and including additional unrequested but very welcomed related service, all in a helpful and polite manner, is rare these days and in my opinion a bargain for my original estimate. I paid what I expected to pay, and ended up with so much more- definitely exceeded my expectations! I can't recommend a better business to service your home theater, home sound, or audio/visual needs! If only Empire had done this install originally when we built this house 5 years ago instead of the crummy, corner cutting outfit that worked with our builders that we were forced to use..... I am looking forward to using them again in the coming weeks for similar MX-780 repairing and replacement for my in-laws for a project they've been needing help with for the past few months. Empire was amazing! read more

These guys were awesome! Very professional. I had an issue with my TV after they installed it and they were very accommodating and came back right away to get the job finished up. I would highly recommend Empire! read more

I was looking to hang my flatscreen and put it on a rotating arm. Empire was easy to communicate with via Yelp and I got on the schedule quickly. The day of, I was on slotted for 1-1:30pm and got an automated call around 12:55pm to let me know they were on the way and would be at my place at 1:27pm. I found that very helpful. The two men who came to the installation (Jared and Richard, as I recall) were professional and efficient. They treated my apartment and furniture with care. The whole thing only took about half an hour, and they made sure everything was just as I wanted it. I'll be using them again in the future! read more

Again what can I say, I texted my guy Erick and he responds super quick, we set up an appointment, calls me the day before to confirm he has all the details and gets everything working and performing great. Erick is an awesome hard worker, but always takes the time to talk me through everything and that I'm good before leaving. If you are doing major Audio/Visual work on your house, call Empire. read more

Very fast response for a quote. Best price in town for the service. Stuck to their appointment time and made the process as easy as can be with all of their online tools. Will certainly use these folks next time I have an AV projects. Thanks y'all! read more

Really enjoyed our experience here. Patient, punctual, attention to detail, all around great experience.

Five Star!!! The best Home theater & AV installer in Dallas area!!! Empire installed home theater into a pre wired home theater room for us. Their customer service is exceptional. I also purchased few items from them. They work with their vendors to offer the customer a fair price. After installation they guarantee their workmanship & they will take care of you. The 47 5 Star you see on Yelp are hard earned one happy customer at a time. Empire provide reasonable pricing & does a high quality work. Erick & his team are great to work with and thank you for doing your job with integrity. Unlike other AV companies; they don't leave you hanging. They put customer first!!! Empire AV is my only go to company for future AV. I highly recommend them for any home theater and house networking projects. read more

They showed up on time and did an amazing job and got it done quickly. Both guys were friendly and professional. They mounted a very big new tv for me and hooked up my Apple TV and made sure everything worked properly and all the settings on the TV were exactly as they should be. A+ job and I'll be using Empire again for any TV mountings or AV needs in the future. Highly recommend. read more

I'm very happy with the service I received. They worked with me on scheduling and everything went as they said it would. I found them on Yelp and reviews were right on point. read more

These guys called to let me know they had a cancellation and asked if I wanted to keep my 3:00 appointment or move it up. I very much appreciated the option and opted for an earlier install of two TVs with mounts I already had. They did a great job and were super professional and courteous. I thought the price was fair for the work performed. They even cleaned up after themselves and moved an old piece of furniture into the garage we no longer needed. Highly recommend this company. read more

The guys were knowledgeable and super helpful. They had all my equipment installed and working in a couple of hours

I've recently moved and needed my tv remounted. Jared was able to get my tv up all while being super professional and efficient. Will definitely be using Empire AV Services again! read more

Thoroughly impressed with the service I received. Polite, helpful, and friendly service. The job had a few challenges but they we quick and effective at getting it done right. Highly recommended read more

These guys are terrific. Used them for a surround sound equipment purchase and install in the greater Dallas area. Helped me choose the right equipment, priced it competitively and were great communicators at every step. Would 100% use them again and will. Looked at several other options and so glad I selected them. read more

These guys are amazing!! They were very flexible working with my availability, showed up early, and my bill was exactly what I was quoted over the phone. I'd give them 10 s if I could! read more

Empire AV were incredibly fast responding with quote, scheduling installation, and were very professional while being pleasant and courteous during the whole process. The team were just about as perfect as you could hope for and would. We were having them tweak the position and level of our large tv by 1/16" of inch both ways, not once did they tried to talk us out of what we were seeing or complain, only replied by working and adjusting to find our comfort zone visually, and they nailed it perfectly. Awesome work to Jared, and many thanks. I would not hesitate to use them again and recommend to anyone. read more

From quote to finish this company handled everything remarkably. I highly recommend. I had my 55" TV and mount removed. I also had the holes from where the screws were removed filled in. The entire service took about 10 minutes and the technicians were expedient and personable. Again, highly recommend. read more

Best AV company I have encountered so far in DFW. I have used many different companies for a variety of different projects and the professionalism I experienced with Empire was a welcome change. Additionally, they are more than happy to support you after the installation is done with any questions and/or concerns that you have. Excellent experience and I would highly recommend Empire and will be using them going forward. read more

I utilized Empire to install a new tv on an existing mount I had installed myself. Installation was prompt and affordable compared to other service providers I received quotes from. They communicated throughout the process; for example, they had to remount the wall bracket I had installed to make sure the new the tv could be centered properly. I would use them again and recommend for any other electronics installation needs. read more

I normally mount my TV myself but I moved into an apartment and decided to get it done professionally. Best decision I've made in awhile. The guys showed up on time and even offered to wear masks. They set the TV up within 30 minutes and were in and out. Overall fantastic experience. Would definitely recommend to anyone on the fence about it. read more
