Explore the Nearly Limitless Possibilities in a Home Theater Installation

If you've been considering upgrading your home entertainment in Kona, HI, you may have searched the internet, getting ideas for home theaters. Have you googled 'Home Theaters' on Pinterest? If so, you've faced thousands of variations in design, from outdoor pool-side home cinemas to casual media rooms with plush sectionals and hidden TVs descending from the ceiling. 

And then there are what we think of as "standard" home theater designs, which, today, are anything but standard. Tiered custom recliners, fiber-optic ceilings, and elegant wall sconces create a personal retreat. Someone even made a bat cave. How about a refreshment stand, bar, and pool table?

So, where do you start? That's where Control Freaks Hawaii comes in. As home theater installation and design experts, we know the nearly limitless options and will explore the possibilities, ultimately coming up with a custom home theater that far exceeds your expectations. Your only concern? How to fit in all the friends that want to join you.

Let's explore the possibilities.

Luxury Living Requires Personalization, Ease, and Enjoyment

Very few people define luxury living in the same way. For some, it's jet-setting around the world, while for others, it's enjoying life's finer yet simpler things. For many of our friends in Hawaii, it's as simple as ensuring they never miss a sunset. 

The same can be said of luxury smart home living. Some define it as a home with the best outdoor and indoor entertainment, from home theaters to whole-home audio. For others, it's lighting that transforms with the sun, shades that rise with the dawn, and beautiful landscape lights and a heated spa to greet them at day's end. People and families are nothing if not unique.

And that's where Control Freaks Hawaii comes in. As a Home Technology Association (HTA) Certified Estate dealer, we've reached the pinnacle of our profession, capable of supporting residences with complex technology needs. It means we excel at ultra-high performance home theater and audio systems, luxury residences 10,000 square feet and up, and residences with world-class architecture and interior design. In other words, luxury smart homes.

Lighting Control Technology Elevates Hawaiian Homes

Nestled amidst the stunning landscapes of Hawaii's Big Island, Kona's homes are a beautiful blend of modern architecture and nature's beauty. To further accentuate the charm of your home, a professional lighting design paired with smart control technology elevates the aesthetics of your daily lifestyle.
