What You Need for the Best Smart Solutions 

As a smart home integrator, we help homeowners install luxury features in their Palm Beach, FL, homes, including lighting control, multi-room audio, climate control, and more. 

The best way to manage all these technologies is with a home automation system that consolidates all devices into one platform. Systems like Josh.ai let you control everything from entertainment to security cameras with your smartphone, tablet, wall keypads, or voice command. 

But maybe you’re like some of our clients—you aren’t interested in a smart home system. You’ve had a control system in the past, and maybe it hardly worked or was a nightmare to deal with. You just want the best-in-class solutions for the specific things you need, like motorized shading or outdoor audio. You don’t want all the extra stuff. 

Fine enough! Let’s walk through a hypothetical project to find the ultimate solutions for your home.

Control4 is an award-winning smart home control4 system and our top choice for Palm Beach homeowners who want to control lighting, shading, security, entertainment, and more. And Control4 has just announced some exciting news: it now natively integrates with Apple Music, the popular music streaming service. 

Control4 customers with Connect or 4Sight service can now natively enjoy Apple Music through the Control4 system without needing to connect through Airplay. Now that Apple Music is native to Control4, here’s what this means for your Florida smart home. 

Bring Home Theater Sound to Your Gaming Experience 

Have you noticed that when you play video games, the sound is completely uneven? If you turn up the volume to hear environmental details like footsteps and background music, action scenes are far too loud the next moment. Then, when you turn down the volume, you’re unable to hear all the background sounds that make games feel immersive and lifelike. 

If this is the case for your gaming setup, it sounds like you need better speakers, headphones, or an improved audio format.
