When you picture a home theater for your space in New York City or the greater metropolitan area, you probably have imagined a quiet, dark room hidden within your home. However, now that the weather is starting to warm up to a pleasantly balmy range, your family and guests might prefer to enjoy your outdoor spaces.
Whether you live in a high-rise condo with ample balcony or roof living spaces or a suburban home with an expansive patio and pool, ACS can help you custom-design a summer home for your favorite movies and music.
As expert A/V installers, we understand that outdoor spaces come with different considerations. Will the screen be bright enough to accommodate the space? (You can see how much lighting surrounds the pictured area above.) Will you need different audio specs to account for larger spaces and natural elements like wind?
Yes: We have to think through countless variables to ensure your outdoor home theater’s success, but you don’t have to! Let us take care of the details, so you can kick back with family and friends and enjoy your outdoor home theater, even before summer’s in full swing. Keep reading to see how we can help you achieve that perfect pool or patio theater.

ACS focuses on every detail of your control system, including some that are too often ignored. We know you want a home integration program that functions well. But, let’s face it, looks play an important role, too. If your home style is modern and industrial, you don’t want to blight your wall with a conventional beige keypad.

It may seem shocking that the light fixtures in your home can have a dramatic impact on both your health and interior design, but it’s true. That’s the power of LED lighting.

Plus, you get to add a unique sense of style to your home with the power of tunable lighting. Not convinced?

Before getting into how LED lighting fixtures can impact your body, let’s look at how they can impact your home. The truth is there is no substitute for LEDs; they use about 75 percent less energy than incandescent bulbs, they’re safer to handle than compact fluorescent bulbs, and tunable lighting gives you an unsurpassed range when it comes to the color and intensity of your light fixtures.
What is tunable lighting? Tunable lighting is a new concept in interior design made possible by warm-dimming LEDs. Whereas older dimmers only let you control the intensity of the light, tunable lighting lets you control the intensity and the color of your fixtures independently from one another.

"It was a pleasure working with ACS. To be quite honest (as I always am…) working with ACS was the best experience working with any AV/Home Integration company in my entire tenure here at Hobbs. "
- Jerry Cobaugh, Hobbs Inc.
"In today’s world, with frequent technology changes and the need or desire to integrate a number of functions, I loved working with ACS because they made the time to explain the options, price them appropriately, install them right, educate us to the proper use and follow-up as needed."
- Bob Hurst
"I more than whole-heartedly endorse Audio Command Systems and its technicians and especially Michael Pittman without whose invaluable design suggestions our system would not be as individualized and easily operable as it is. The entire installation experience and subsequent enjoyment was and is immeasurable.
- Marc Desiderio
