Has anyone had a good experience with The Best Buy Magnolia Team for a total whole home entertainment system installed.

Or used another local contractor

I have been a BOSE fan for years but have been told there are better systems out there for much less investment with better sound ?

Have a quote already for Galaxy to come out and install. GASP!

Best buy might be a mistake they are financially shakey and a warranty might be worthless

I recently used Tom Grooms of The Villages AV at 352-388-1677 and was extremely impressed. He is knowledgeable, professional, timely, neat and very reasonable. I have an older Denon receiver. He installed 2 ceiling speakers an in-wall sub-woofer and adjusted and tuned my system and the sound is fantastic. You can purchase your own speakers, sound bar, TV etc or let him get them at a cheaper price as I found out ....too late. We were very pleased with his work.

Bose costs a lot, true, but if you love your audio, it's the best. I've had absolutely fabulous 24/7 service from Darrell the Galaxy guy. He's amazing and to me worth a lot of the upfront cost for his free in home consultations. I can call him anytime to come over NC when I don't know how things work. yes, I'm a ditz at that stuff.

This thread is well over a year old (June 2012). I'm sure OP has his system in by now.
