Better than TV Speakers - Our Basic Audio Upgrade Package

Christina Tollefson • Aug 29, 2023

Speaker Options - From Soundbars to 5.2 Surround Sound

Sometimes bigger isn't always better. While we at Entertainment Pros take pride in our high-end offerings - think 85" TVs, incredible receivers, gorgeous, articulate speakers and more - we understand not everyone is in the market for these upscale setups. Many simply want sound better than tiny, mediocre rear-facing TV speakers.


Let's talk about our "better than a TV speaker" packages. Whether it’s an upgrade to a quality soundbar or the immersive experience of a 5.2 surround sound system, we have something for everyone.

The Samsung Soundbar Series

Starting around $650 (equipment & installation, on wall)


Samsung has consistently delivered quality and innovation in their TV's. Their soundbars; with a wireless subwoofer and its added bass, give you better sound and a better experience TV speakers alone can't provide.


The Sonos Series

Starting around $2000 (equipment & installation, on wall)


Sonos; a brand that’s synonymous with wireless audio integration, provides multiple products which elevate your audio experience. The ARC Soundbar and Sonos Sub together ensure every note, dialogue, and background score is heard with utmost clarity and depth, far surpassing the basic soundbar/subwoofer combo. Sonos allows streaming music from your own sources along with allowing phone control via their cool app. 


*Sonos can also be upgraded to a full surround system by adding (2) Sonos Era 100 wireless speakers for around $600 additional.


Dive Deeper with an immersive 5.2 Surround Sound System

Starting around $6300 (equipment & installation)


For those who desire an even more captivating and lifelike audio experience, the 5.2 surround sound system is the way to go.


Here's why:


  1. Immersive Sound: Unlike regular setups, a 5.2 system wraps you in sound. With speakers positioned around the room wider than front soundbars can achieve, you’re placed right in the middle of the action.
  2. Deep Bass: With two subwoofers, expect richer and deeper balanced bass that resonates more evenly throughout your room, adding depth to every song or scene.
  3. Clear Dialogue: No more rewinding or adjusting the volume. Higher quality tweeters and drivers insure voices stand out with clarity, dialogue is crisp and easy to understand.
  4. Dynamic Sound: Whether it’s the rustling of leaves or the roar of an engine, hear every sound detail with precision and depth.
  5. Customizable: Adapt the setup based on room size, shape, and acoustic properties for optimal sound quality.
  6. Universal easy-to read programmed remote control makes operation as easy as pressing one button for a painless experience, even with your cabinet doors closed.


While high-end systems are a treat, sometimes it’s the smaller upgrades which make the most difference. Whether you opt for a soundbar or a full-fledged 5.2 system, rest assured you’re in for a treat to the ears!

A Renovation Journey: Color Changing Landscape Lighting Dissatisfied with the mundane look of his outdoor lighting from a different company, our client sought something which stood out. He had already completed a total renovation of his home's interior and, after following our projects on social media where we posted our color changing landscape lighting projects, knew he wanted the vibrant, color-changing lights. This choice promised not just illumination but an enhancement of his home’s nighttime charm, with the ability to tailor the ambiance for any occasion—from serene summer evenings to festive holiday nights.

Color Changing Landscape Lighting and Initial Thoughts I was speaking to a long-time client who recently upgraded every aspect of her extremely large waterfront home. She had removed the cabinets and the entire kitchen, and we had upgraded the audio/video/lighting and control systems. The interior designer did an impressive job on the interior design and decor, a photo-ready foyer that has had me and many others pulling out their phones to snap pictures. Amidst all of this, I mentioned that her home looked truly amazing during the daytime- but it looked very similar to the other houses on her block during the nighttime (knowing that she obviously wanted her home to stand out). She mentioned that she agreed, and it was also time for an outdoor change. I created a plan of attack to add some energy to her beautiful home that would make it truly a standout at night. We installed an FX Luminaire color-changing landscape lighting system.

Outdoor Entertainment Spring is almost here, and the long Tampa Bay summer is well on its way. Our daily highs are getting back to the 80's, and the low 90's will soon be a daily occurrence. In retrospect, were you satisfied with your outdoor entertainment area last summer?
