Quickly becoming Carlton Audio Visual's go-to in-ceiling speaker when the client is after a beefy, big and involving sound that doesn't compromise on detail. These are a clever design that hide completely in the ceiling.

We have these set up in our Control4 demo space and you'll often catch Rab in there playing Cher loudly at 8am. Come in and try them for yourself...and help us to stop the Cher...Please!

There is a left and a right mounted unit of these. Priced per unit but you will need the pair.

The original Electa Amator was one of the foundation models for Sonus faber that set the seductive timbre and musicaity allied to unique cabinetry artisanship that is very much the signature of this brand.

The Electa Amator III is immensly tactile with its combination of wood marble and leather, In my mind it feels like one of those precious pieces of preserved Roman art that is found in the corridoors of The Louvre rather than a mere loudspeaker.

These speakers do not come with the stands. Their matching stands which have a base of Carrara Marble can be purchased separately for $2995.

We see this projector as the perfect unit for an avid gamer. Of course, it's a fabulous looking Home Theatre Projector as well and will double up nicely playing films. But it really stands out from the crowd when it comes to gaming.

This is because it has 240Hz refresh rate which is double the current industry standard of 120Hz and most TVs will still only do 60Hz. This means everything gaming is fluid and more precise. Split second changes are caught with this incredible refresh rate.

It also has a USB-C input - very uncommon on Home Theatre machines - designed specifically to plug the Nintendo Swithch straight into the back of it. On that, we would suggest plugging your gaming hardware into the back of this unit and bypassing any AV receiver that might be in the system in order to get the most out of the ultra fast inputs and refresh rates.

Of course, you can take an audio out to the amp to get your audiophile sound.

The ViewSonic X100 LED 4K projector is setting a benchmark at its price point. There are some very cool features to this Projector that are normally found in units at least double its price. Foremost, is the LED technology. No lamp replacements needed and superior colour and brightness levels are evident at first glance.

Wide lens shift is a fantastic addition to this unit and another feature generally found in much more expensive models. In a model at htis price range we'd normally find digital keystoning instead. It achieves the same end of positioning the picture perfectly on your screen but will deteriorate the resolution of the image at the same time. Whereas Lens shift will not. 

Other nifty features are the dedicated control app that puts all of the projector's features at your finger tips (apple and android devices), in-built Alexa so you can control the unit completely hands free and motorised lens cover, that automatically opens when you power on the projector. 

This is a feature packed projector optimised for sensational Home Cinema.

When you want your surround system to translate those explosions a little more literally, yet still keep your vocal track lovely and clean, Krix have you covered. The semi-commercial SX range is all about bringing the "theater" into "home theater". These are 95dB efficient, horn loaded beasties that have utterly devastating dynamic range and slam. Amazingly exciting, and potentially dangerous; they are the audio equivalent of a big bag of cocaine (apparently). Learn More

This is the most common whole home processor that we use in Australia. It is also a powerful processor that adapts brilliantly to commercial uses such as restaurants. 

WIth more options available than the CORE1, we can build a whole home automation system from this unit whereas the CORE1 is only effective for a single room.

As with the CORE1, we can do a lot of checking on the system remotely saving you time and money in personal visits.

Control4 interfaces are effortlessly customisable. Would you like to have your TV turn on to a certain chanel when you turn on the TV regardless of what the kids have done the night before? Would you like to be able to lock or allow access to the house even when you're on holidays? All of this and more is possible with Control4 and these sorts of processors.

Call us and talk to us about what you'd like from a smart home system. Or come in and see us. We can also arrange home visits to walk through things in situ.

The brand new passive soundbar by Krix is here. Combining the highest quality sound with the neat look of a Soundbar.

Specialty Krix designed tweeters complete with Wave Guide for extra control and performance. Coupled with paper cone bass drivers, this unit gives you the very best of Krix Home Theatre sound quality.

This is a passive Soundbar that doesn't have an amplifier on board. Krix have deliberately chosen this design because of the sound advantages in a passive design. The amplifiers on board traditional Soundbars are greatly compromised because they need to fit into these small Soundbar chassis. They are generally D-class amps with a thin uninspiring sound.

Keeping the amp separate is the answer to a no-compromise Soundbar.

Available in three standard sizes to fit under 75", 85" & 100" TV screens but also customisable to be made in any size ($5495 for custom size).

We have a set of these new Legend Acoustic speakers on our shelves. Designed and manufactured in Australia by Rod Crawford, former head speaker designer for Linn Acoustics. Like all of Rod speakers, they emphasise clarity and purity of musical reproduction. There's no colouration allowed in the signal path here...in fact colouration is a bad word to say in Rod's presence.

The flat frequency response graph of these Tripos is something that other, larger speaker manufacturers can only admire.

Legend acoustics is the epitome of boutique australian loudspeaker design.

Krix although it's very well known in cinema circles overseas is surprisingly underappreciated in its home Australian market. In 40 years, what started as a band of brothers making stereo speakers in an Adelaide garage has turned into one of the biggest players for speakers in the international commercial cinema market. And they're still made in Adelaide...although their garage has expanded considerably.

Krix do eyewatering High-End commercial theatre fitouts in places like the Middle East and China in a range of gear that is not really seen in commercial theatres in Australia. They've kitted out all of the Village Gold class theatres and many of the larger cinema chains and independent theatres choose Krix for the same reason our clients choose Krix...great value and fantastic sound.

Krix has adapted the 'speakers behind the screen' approach found in commercial theatres for the home with their MX series. Three speakers; Left, right and centre and two subwoofers either side of the centre make up the array. With the larger MX20 and MX30 systems, you really do need to build them in behind a screen. The beauty of the little MX5 system is that it can feasibly sit around a screen on the floor avoiding a costly rebuild of your whole wall and a new Acoutically Transparent Screen.

And even though it's little, boy does the MX5 deliver. Big dynamics, big room pressurisation and high impact. All with that warmth and depth of sound that never has you reaching to turn the volume down.

We find pairing a Krix system with a Marantz Receiver/amplifier gives the best results. We have the MX5 set up alongside the MX30 in our home theatre demo room. Come by for a demo!

Good for Hi-Fi generally but particularly useful with Turntables. This will dampen Resonances so as not to create distortion in your system.

Handy if you don't want to fix a Wall-Mount to your wall for a Turntable or to increase the performance of your Hi-Fi system.

The Gound It 3 has the same granular mass inside it to dampen vibrations as the 1 and 2 does but it has alot more of that granular material and more solid, isolating feet than the other models too. 

Top Tip: They are more useful under CD players to counter act the effects of the moving parts.

Sometimes the best way to improve your vinyl system is the simplest - Wall mount It!

Your Deck and your cartridge are built to be sensitive to vibrations. Afterall that's what we want something that will pick up all the nuances in our Vinyl. But that means it'll be sensitive to external vibrations as well. Ie. Walking around your house!

You'll actually hear that as distortion and noise in your music. If you attach your Turntable to the wall...voila!, not a problem.

The Wallmount It 5 has an in-built dampening system and doesn't require a solid brick wall to be mounted on. It'll do just fine on a plywood wall.

Also it means those 'little' fingers that we all dearly love but wish they wouldn't try to put their favourite record on themselves...stay away from the nice expensive cartridge.

An improved version of the Primary E Phono with a couple of very smart upgrades for only $60 more than the Primary E Phono, you're actually getting better value with this deck.

Upgraded bearings on this turntable means it actually has the same bearing as Pro-Ject's award winning and ever popular Debut Carbon! It's been paired out of the box with a quality ABS Polymer platter BUT the improved bearing means you can put on a Debut steel platter or even an Acrylic one for a serious upgrade.

It boasts a much better tonearm than the Primary E as well. Made out of Aluminium, it is sturdier and has less internal vibrations making it a quieter arm for your listening pleasure.

The belt is now underneath the platter meaning no more accidental slips of the belt from the platter and speed is controlled with a touch of a button rather than a manual change of the belt from pulley to pulley.

This version comes replete with a built-in phono stage for easy connectivity.

The perfect starter turntable that is great value but more than your basic Deck.

Comes in Black, White and Walnut.

The new E1 Turntable sits above the Primary E in the Pro-Ject range giving some generous upgrades to the Primary E.

A new tonearm is made from Aluminium and is stiffer and more acoustically dampening.

The bearings are the same as in the Debut Carbon and the Deck can be upgraded with an Acrylic platter or even a standard Debut platter.

The belt is placed on the subplatter accidentally having the belt slip off the rotating platter is not an issue.

Also this unit comes with electronic speed control. Convenience and simplicity for changing from 33 to 45rpm records.

This is a plug-and-play unit, designed to be played straight out of the box. A simple, clever design that is more than your basic turntable but without the excessive pricetag.

This is a very well priced handy Turntable with a lot of features.

There's a button to change speed from 33 to 45rpm instead of having to lift up the platter. Very handy if you switch between 33s and 45s a lot.

There's a built-in switchable phono stage to easily pair it to any amplifier or active speaker.

As well as having a lovely glass, acoustically dampening, platter, a good quality fitted cartridge and a solid motor and bearings. All of this made in Europe!
