Whole-Home Audio & Video
Whole-Home Audio & Video Installation in Frisco, TX
Multi-room audio and centralized video for every indoor and outdoor space, run from one equipment rack.
When the kitchen wants jazz and the patio wants the game, each room is its own zone — one room or area with its own source and volume. Kids' rooms, the gym, and the primary suite get the same independent control, then join the others for a party. Speakers sit flush in the ceiling or wall.
Before the proposal
What decides your project
The four inputs that size the work, then what a proposal includes and what you supply.
How many independent zones?
A zone is wherever people want something different playing at once. Main rooms start around six zones; whole-home scope runs twelve or more.
Do TVs share sources?
Shared rack sources can feed four TVs in the main-room package, or every display in whole-home scope — without boxes beside each screen.
Is outdoor part of the first phase?
Patio and yard can join the same system with landscape speakers, weather-rated TVs, and one shared control app.
What does handover include?
Calibrated microphones set each zone, video is matched across displays, and you get a labeled rack plus app walkthrough.

Whole-Home Audio & Video
When the kitchen wants jazz and the patio wants the game, each room is its own zone — one room or area with its own source and volume. Kids' rooms, the gym, and the primary suite get the same independent control, then join the others for a party. Speakers sit flush in the ceiling or wall.
Video follows the same plan. Streaming boxes, satellite, a game console, and a media server live in one closet rack, and any TV plays any of them. Living rooms stay free of stacked boxes.
Patio and pool areas get landscape speakers in the planting beds and outdoor TVs placed against the Texas sun. Everything shares one Control4 app and the same wall keypads, and we install Control4 as a Certified Dealer.
How we approach the work
A zone is wherever people want a different thing playing at the same time.
The Craft
Zones follow rooms, not floor plans
A zone is wherever people want a different thing playing at the same time. We map the house room by room with you, then hide the speakers — ceilings, eaves, garden beds — so only the sound gives the system away.
Property Types
Rooms that want their own sound
Four kinds of rooms drive four different designs — most houses are a mix of all of them.
New construction
Before drywall we mark speaker, display, and rack locations with your builder and pull dedicated cable for every planned zone. Open-concept Frisco plans still need independent kitchen and living-room volume, so we spec more zones rather than one pair in the middle. The finish stays clean because the wire is already in the walls.
Occupied-home retrofit
Finished walls change the method. We fish cable through attics and closets and drop architectural speakers into existing ceiling holes. Work is phased so one area stays usable while another is open. Most occupied-home jobs take one to two weeks for a full house, scheduled around how you live.
Living room as movie room
A living room that doubles as the movie room is a different job from a kitchen music zone. We place the TV to manage Frisco daylight, add motorized shades when Lutron is already in the house, and keep that room as one zone of the whole-home system. No extra stack of boxes beside the sofa.
Patio, pool, and yard
Texas heat, sun, and storms are the constraint. Landscape speakers sit in planting beds for even coverage around a pool. Patio TVs are weather-rated and placed to fight glare. Both tie into the same indoor control system so a party scene can raise outdoor volume without touching the bedrooms.

Our Process
Zone by zone, room by room
Consultation to handover follows the rooms: design runs zone by zone so the house is never fully without music or TV.
Complimentary phone consultation
We start on a call: how many rooms need independent music, how many TVs should share sources, whether the patio is in scope, and what is already installed. No charge, no obligation. If it is a fit, we book the walkthrough.
Home walkthrough
We walk the house with you to mark rooms that need music, TVs that should share sources, and outdoor areas that matter. We listen to how you live, then leave a written scope before anyone orders equipment.
Design & proposal
We map speaker locations to ceiling type and room volume, then plan the rack and cable runs so kitchen jazz and patio game audio stay independent. You get drawings, a line-item proposal, and equipment matched to each space.
Installation
In-house technicians pull cable and set architectural speakers flush with the finish. Sources live in one labeled closet rack. In an occupied house we work room by room so the rest of the home keeps music and TV.
Calibration & handover
After the walls are closed we measure each zone with calibrated microphones and set levels so dialog is clear and bass is even. Video is matched across TVs. You get a walkthrough of the app, keypads, and grouping rooms for a party.
Support
The Plano team that installed the system also services it. Most issues we fix remotely. When a truck is needed, you call (469) 666-0747 during posted hours (Mon–Fri 9:00 AM – 6:00 PM · Sat 10:00 AM – 1:00 PM).

Common Questions
Questions about whole-home audio & video
01How much does whole-home audio and video installation cost in Frisco?
Cost follows the house: how many rooms need independent music, how many TVs share sources, whether the patio is included, and whether speakers sit in the ceiling or in the landscape. After a complimentary consultation we give you a written, line-item proposal. No work starts until you approve that scope.
02Can you integrate with my existing smart home system?
Yes. If you already have Control4, Savant, or Lutron, we add audio and video onto that platform instead of installing a second app. If you have no automation yet, we can start with entertainment on Control4 and add lighting or shades later. The same Certified Dealer team programs both.
03How do you handle Frisco's abundant natural light for video viewing?
Frisco daylight is hard on TVs. We pick the wall that gets less glare and specify screens that reject ambient light when a projector is in play. Lutron motorized shades go in when the room already has or needs them. Outdoor TVs get weather-rated panels aimed away from the worst sun.
04Will my system become outdated quickly?
The wire in the walls is what lasts. We run enough cable that a later TV, streamer, or speaker swap does not mean opening the house again. Equipment is chosen for current standards with a documented upgrade path. Support includes software updates so streaming apps and control stay current.
05How does installation work in an occupied home?
We work in phases so you keep TV and music in the rooms we are not touching. Cable is fished from attics and closets. Dust stays contained. A typical whole-house job in an occupied home takes one to two weeks, scheduled around school, work, and how you use the space.
06What makes Digitalholics different from other Frisco installers?
The same crew that installs your system answers the phone later. Designers hold THX professional certification, technicians are in-house rather than subcontracted, and the rack ships labeled with documented settings — so service does not start with guesswork.
07Can you add outdoor entertainment to an existing system?
Yes. We extend the indoor system to the patio and pool with landscape speakers and weather-rated displays, or we build a dedicated outdoor zone that still shows up in the same app. Hardware is chosen for Texas heat, sun, and storms. Existing indoor control stays. You get one party scene for inside and out.
08Do you service systems installed by other companies?
Yes, when the wiring allows it. We diagnose systems we did not install and upgrade them if the cable plant and equipment can carry it. If the rack is a mess or the platform cannot do what you want, we say so and quote a replacement — with the original drawings, our own installs service faster.
