Here's a polished version suitable for a review: I'm rebuilding my home in Altadena and realized at the last minute--right before we closed up the walls--that I hadn't run any coax, Cat 6, or wiring for home entertainment speakers. I was in a serious time crunch and needed help fast. After calling a few companies, [[HIGHLIGHT]]Tony immediately understood the urgency. He showed up that same night after finishing his other jobs, brought a crew, and got everything completed before the walls were closed.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The quality of the work was excellent, the installation was clean and professional, and the pricing was very competitive. I highly recommend Tony to anyone looking for quality low-voltage wiring, networking, or home entertainment installation work. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]They responded in a very timely manner.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Very professional, extremely good communication.

Had a mess of a situation with my ethernet lines and needed to move everything to another room across the house. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Tony came in literally a day after my call to give me a quote, and started the next day.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] He got everything finished, organized and working perfectly in a very short time!! Very professional, very approachable, and pricing was fantastic! read more

Tony and his team were amazing. I'm pretty clueless when it comes to smart home design, surround sound, etc and he made it very easy and seamless to understand and operate. I'm writing this review actually because Tony did my system in 2020, and he just helped me troubleshoot a small issue an entire 4 years after installing my system at 8pm on a Saturday night. Crazy level of service, but also a testament to him as a person. I've always gotten the best vibes from him. Couldn't recommend highly enough. read more

Tony and his team helped me set up my home network, control4 home, and mount 2 tv's. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They're super responsive and easy to work with.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They were good at troubleshooting problems, and I really appreciated their communication throughout the process. Overall, they've been great and looking forward to working with them in the future. read more

Tony and his team were fantastic in sorting our existing Control 4 system, modifying our internet connectivity, and generally sorting things out. He was very patient, always provided a clear view on what they were doing and never placed any pressure. They were very timely with all the work and the pricing was fair for the service and expertise provided. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I'm super happy to have used them and will be using their coverage going forward.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Most expensive estimate I got so far. More than double the price of my highest estimate before them. I will not be using them.

Tony and his crew installed security camera system to our home a couple years ago. Every time we have house guests and they've seen our monitor with our seven cameras displayed, they always compliment the quality of our system. We had them back a couple of times to reposition a camera due to remodel and a new network was installed and they are prompt and professional. If you are in the market for a security system, LA Smart Home Systems will provide top notch service for all your security needs. read more

Tony and his team are INCREDIBLE. I went through several other smart home companies and LA Smart Home is the best. Don't waste your time. Tony is thorough and creative and beyond helpful. I wouldn't go anywhere else. read more

Tony and his team of technicians were awesome. They were professional, knowledgeable and were able to answer all my questions about the installation of a security camera system. We are a small business and had a specific budget. We received estimates from other businesses that were beyond what we could afford. Tony made sure to get us the best system and worked with our budget. I highly recommend them. I know I will be using them in the future for our home. Call Tony you won't regret it! read more

I am very happy with LA smart home system. I found them on Yelp and called. Owner Tony picked up right away and we scheduled a meeting the next day. Tony showed up on time and was very professional. He answered all my questions and gave me a few options. His fee is reasonable and willing to work with you on prices. The next day his team showed up and finished the installation! It's the most efficient and professional team that I have dealt with! His guys are very knowledgeable about the system as well. Highly recommend this company if you need to install control 4 smart home system, security cameras and alarms. read more

Tony fixed my problem. [[HIGHLIGHT]]But he seemed annoyed by everything. Seemed very unhappy with his job and life in general. Not a smile in sight.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] And very expensive. But he got the job done, so I guess that's a few stars in his favor. read more

Tony was very quick to respond to discuss the security cameras installation project inquiry on Yelp. He provided a flat rate quote which was awesome since I didn't have to take time out of work to schedule for an electrician to come out, give an estimate, and then charge for just coming out. Also, he was very kind to make an exception to schedule the work on a weekend on last minute notice. Andrew and Andres came right on the dot, and they were great. We went through everything; they listened to our concerns and preferences, explained different options available, and found the best spots for our cameras. After completing the installations, they swept up any wall debris, put the boxes together, and stayed until the cameras were up and running to help position them in the right directions. I highly recommend My Tv Connection for security camera installations. They definitely know what they're doing, professional, and go above and beyond. Thank you, Tony, Andrew, and Andres! read more

Our Control4 system was out-of-date and in need of service. The firm that put the system in was not very responsive, and didn't show for the last appointment I booked. I turned to Yelp to find the highest-rated Control4 reseller in the Valley and found Tony. He showed up promptly to give us a quote for new security cameras and updating our existing Control4 processors. His quote was reasonable and detailed. Tony and his crew were very courteous and very conscientious, they were very careful to put down protective coverings on our floors when doing inside work and did an amazing job of upgrading our system. There was a small problem with the install of our Control4 doorbell. I called Tony at 6:30pm in the evening to tell him about the problem. He was at our door 8am the next day to fix the problem and everything has been working perfectly since. After my frustrating experience with the last company I used to maintain our cameras and Control4, I was ready to rip the whole system out, but Tony has restored my faith in Control4 and I plan to use him for several other projects in the future! read more

I've been wanting to have a TV mounted in a bedroom for ages. I finally took the plunge and contacted My TV Connection. Tony responded within minutes, and came out within the same day. Tony was very professional and friendly I could tell he takes his job very seriously. It is important for me to have someone who is confident on what they're doing and efficient. I wasn't quite sure how high the TV should be mounted. Tony made suggestions for optimal viewing, I'm so happy he did. It feels so natural where your vision falls. He provided a full motion mount as well as wiring. Tony concealed the wires just like I wanted. I can't believe how neat the TV set up looks! After he was done he also made sure not to leave a mess behind. I can't tell you how many times I've had other contractors leave a mess behind, for that I'm quite thankful. I couldn't be happier with the results. If you need to get a job done look no further. I will definitely be recommending them to my friends and family. read more

Rarely are my expectations exceeded when it comes to AV companies. Two houses, three audio/tv systems and only now a decade later have I found a company actually worth raving about. Tony's approach to giving us a smart system to control TV and music was practical, affordable and most importantly simple to use. My husband is tech challenged and extremely hard to please and even he is raving about the work My Tv Connection did at our house. With the touch of a button on my phone I can stream music into our backyard. Another touch of a button I can start a movie for my daughter in the den. I can stream our home workouts to the TV in our bedroom. Everything works seamlessly. I feel like George Jetson just got transported from the stone ages to the 21st century! The team does the work efficiently, they clean up after themselves and they are dedicated to getting everything running to perfection (that means spending extra time making sure my husbands turntable works with the new system). The ongoing support Tony's company provides is top notch too. I truly cannot rave enough about this company. We love being home now! Thank you Tony and your team! read more

Over the past year I contacted/worked with a few different vendors to help me with my home theatre installation. With many of them, I kind of got the impression that because my project was relatively small (only a 4-speaker in ceiling installation) they weren't that interested in taking on the project. But Tony and his team treated me like I was one of their most important clients. Tony was extremely responsive, transparent on pricing, showed up personally to inspect the work that was happening and to offer his guidance and suggestions about the best arrangement of the speakers in the ceiling. His team members were friendly, professional, courteous and very conscientious about their work. They did a great job and I'm looking forward to having them do more work around our house! read more

Tony is the man. He is very knowledgeable, efficient, punctual in all forms of communications and more importantly he keeps his word on whatever he says he's going to do. He has teams of professional and courteous people working with him and it is always pleasure dealing with them. I have more work that need to get done around the house, I will definitely be using their services again in the near future. I highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for reliable experts on smart home systems. read more

Tony came to the house and resolved an issue with my thermostat, and did it free of charge. Doesn't get better than that. 5 stars!

I am absolutely thrilled! Last week, I called My TV Connection and spoke with Tony Arredondo. I told Tony what I wanted done and sent him a few photos of where I wanted the tv mounted. I advised him I already had the mount and he gave me a quote via text. I then made an appointment with him. Today was my appointment with Tony. Tony was awesome! He arrived on time, was courteous, and professional. He even wore booties into the house. He left no mess behind. The install of my 60" and sound bar is clean! Wires were hidden in the wall. I couldn't be more pleased. Thank you Tony! read more

LA Smart Home (Tony and his team) have been a dream to have manage our Control 4. We purchased the yearly subscription to keep Control 4 running smoothly and as problems arise which they seemingly do, Tony responds immediately and the issue is solved within 24 hours. We have had other groups across our Control 4 and since we have had Tony on board, it is way better. HIGHLY recommend LA Smart Home! read more

Tony is great! Very knowledgable and readily available. Highly recommend. As a property manager we many homes using smart home systems and having someone that always answers for troubleshooting and service is key in the industry. read more

Tony and his group were great to work with. On his first appointment he was on time and then deliver me a quote exactly based on his timeline. We set up a time to do the installation and they showed up early and did a good job of fixing my issues with our home theater. He even threw in an upgraded remote at no charge to me. I do not usually use a service without a recommendation from a trusted source but I did this time based on reviews on Yelp and do not regret it all. I highly recommend using this company. Keith J read more

This company may be great once they come out. But I scheduled two separate appointments and they no-showed, no-call on both occasions. I didn't bother scheduling another appointment as I didn't have time to be stood up on a third occasion. read more

I requested an estimate. They showed up late, spent about 20 minutes learning about the project and said I'd hear back in about a week with an estimate. I never received an estimate. Weeks went by. Giving them the benefit of the doubt, I sent a message asking for them to re-send the estimate because maybe it had been sent to the wrong email address. They didn't ever respond to my messages on yelp and never provided an estimate. I'm not sure why they wasted my time. read more

Simple as 5 stars, 5 star people, 5 star service, 5 star business. Every detail was 5 stars, add in extra stars for how super nice Ali and his father are! 1000% awesome. Yes my home is a happier home now that the huge tv is up, sound system is running. All is clean all is good :-) Thank you My TV Connection read more

Did a virtual estimate with Tony. It was fast and not much in detail about what type of system will be placed. I asked if I can have both access to open my door with my cell and my home phone which he said he can't do. I asked for the model of the intercom system model so I can see the features and all he did was to ask for my address. For other estimates submitted all businesses said they install what I want. Again......no estimate invoice was ever offered after the estimate which you can email to me no need for a address. TONY again didnt tell me the model of the intercom so I may see the features PERIOD! read more

Spoke with Tony and was able to get a Quick appointment to have a New TV installed and another moved. Overall, communication was quick and Efrain was outstanding in communicating what needed to be done. In all, both TVs up in about 1.5 hours and work was outstanding and clean!! Would highly recommend if you need a TV installation done. Don't hesitate...give Tony a call! read more

Tony is the man!! I reached out to tony for my security cameras and hanging 3 TVs. His prices was right there not to high and not too low right there in the middle after all he is fully licensed and insured, Tony made sure everything will get done on time and to specs, he needed to come back to replace a defective camera... and he did as promised. Thank you Tony read more

We walked through the whole house to see where the best place to install.After professionally installing all the wirring in the attic my security system was up and running.Will definitely will recommend My TV Connection to anyone that will like to install a security system in there home or office. read more

Excellent technical support and professional installation. Go to company for my residential applications.

The my tv connection team installed several tv's in our home in multiple locations and the quality was exceptional. Professional, smart and fast. They worked to solve issues I had with placement and then did the most quality work I have had. Thank you again -sarah L read more

Let me just start by saying I have had THE WORST experience trying to get my tv mounted and wires hidden for the last 3 months!!! I just can't believe how great of a job My TV connection did! First of all I received a response literally 4 minutes after requesting a quote. They then set an appt for a free consultation that same day, came over and completed everything in under 2 hours! Unreal to find professionalism and affordability all in such short notice. I am so impressed with Tony and the team and will definitely be recommending them to all my friends and family who might be in need of their service. Wish there were more stars to give!! read more

We moved into our new home two years ago and immediately wanted to make it a smart home. Of course this decision is full of land mines and bad decisions. After trying to do the same thing in our old home and failed miserably with a bad system and service, this time I did my home work. I reached out to a few friends and MyTv and Tony popped up more than once. I have to say since the moment I met Tony I got a great feeling. Tony and his team fitted my house out with a complete Control 4 system, Tv's, Internet and blinds and we LOVE IT! Even when we have had any small issue I have text Tony and he gets back to you within the hour and can normally fix the problem remotely. Since the install install I have upgraded and added speaker to other rooms and tv's and Tony has always done a first class job! I can not recommend Tony and his team enough. Tony thank you for everything!! read more

A+++++++Tony and his guys are amazing, and gives you the best service possible. Let me tell you why I like tony, he is honest, he cares about you, and he treats you like family. Trust me if you need anything done call tony he is simply a great human!! Thank you tony read more

I read the reviews here and decided to give Tony and his crew a try. I had a big job in mind, but wanted to see how they'd handle just setting up my mom's new TV on the wall without cords and what-not. Tony came out, I got a good vibe from him right away so I then took him over to see the bigger job at my house. The first setup went great. They did clean work, we're on time and left the place clean. The second job was a family room to home theatre conversion including acquiring a hard to find OLED tv, installing in-wall and in-ceiling speakers and a bunch of rewiring outside the house; a mess AT&T had made. They rocked it. Came in under budget. There were some hangups getting some of the equipment, but I advise you to be patient and you'll get what you want. We also needed to remove a window and patch the wall. Tony found a great guy Ernie Cortez, who showed up EARLY every day and worked all day to fix this up in short order. He even painted the wall when he finished, which I wasn't expecting. His work was clean and professional and not expensive. The bottom line is that My TV Connection does great work and Tony is cool and will get you what you want and get it done well. His crew is excellent, in particular Jesus went the extra mile on numerous things. He has a good connection on devices, don't buy elsewhere! Strong recommendation. read more

I was in search of someone to help take over the mounting of a flat screen on my brick wall. He was very responsive, and I had priced out a few different vendors via yelp within half hour. He was the most reasonably priced, and he was able to come that same day. He and his apprentice were very friendly, helpful, and courteous. He stayed to make sure everything worked after it was reconnected. It turned out that the fireplace wall wasn't brick after all but just a facing. And to think that other people would have charged me upwards of $200 for that same job. I don't think that those other vendors would have changed their price after finding that out. He had completed the job in just over half an hour. WOW! You know, sometimes when you talk with someone you can tell that they're not out to gouge your eye out or take advantage of you. These are those guys. :) read more

Tony is an amazing gentleman, he spent 30 minutes on the phone with me reviewing a rip off estimate from a competitor. He is truly a gem and I would recommend anyone to contact him with any audio and video. He is a control4 MASTER read more
