Choose the Ideal Speaker System for Your Space

In consultations, we typically help clients choose between a flagship cinema, a performance/value build, or a lifestyle-focused system. Use the guides below to see where you naturally fit.

Home Theater Speakers

Start with the room: size, seating, and how “cinema” you want it to feel. These are our go-to brands for SES home theaters, from value-packed to no-compromise reference.

Bowers & Wilkins

Glass loudspeakers that combine sculpture-like looks with refined stereo performance.

Best for: Most SES whole-home music projects and open-plan floorplans.

Nakymatone

Fully invisible loudspeakers that finish like drywall with impressive clarity.
