“We have had Frank/Square Peg work on several electrical and audio/visual projects in our home. He is a professional in all aspects and is pleasant to be around. He arrives on time, completes the work in the estimated time and does it properly the first time; he is respectful and polite, neat in appearance and is honest. I would highly recommend Frank for any electrical and audio/visual projects you have.”

Digital Creations Custom Home Theaters
Home Theater & Automation Installers in Newark
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsNovember 10, 2014
“Jeremy was very accessible, explained things in a way that a non-tech savvy person could easily understand, and did an excellent job installing my AV system. Based on his recommendations, I purchased a nice LED TV and accessories and am really pleased with the quality and thought I got a good price without the hassle. Any time we have had issues or wanted to alter or adjust our system, Jeremy has responded quickly and taken care of all our needs--from readjusting our wiring after we did some renovations in the room where our system is, to helping us get out internet to work faster. I would highly recommend him for all our AV needs”

Hiring a Home Theater & Automation Installers in Newark, NJ


Transform your Newark, NJ home into an entertainment hub with professional home media services. Whether you're dreaming of a dedicated home theater for movie nights or a versatile media room for watching sports and playing games, home media designers can help bring your vision to life.

These specialists offer comprehensive services including custom theater design, optimal audio-visual equipment selection, strategic seating arrangements, and lighting solutions. They can help conceal electronics, implement user-friendly control systems, and create the perfect viewing environment. Some work independently, while others collaborate with subcontractors for complete installation.

Before starting your project, consider:
  • Will this be a dedicated home theater or a multipurpose media room?
  • How frequently will the space be used?
  • Are you converting an existing room or building new?
  • What activities besides viewing do you want to accommodate?

When selecting a professional, ask about their experience with electronics installation, equipment sourcing, sound system options, and control system recommendations. Ensure they can handle both design and installation if needed.

Questions to ask your home automation pro in Newark, NJ:


  1. What acoustical treatments and soundproofing solutions do you recommend for my space?
