Houston's Smartest Home: Control4, Josh AI & Stunning AV Setup
when you looking down my pants when talking lol
That's a DOPE house.
Is there a reason you used a ring doorbell with the system you put in? Perhaps a chime to integrate into the system or DS2? Nice setup! Keep em coming!
We didn’t wire this home, Client reach out to us during the trim stages and wasn’t wired for doorbell. We tried adding one but he said he didn’t care for having one since to access his property you had to get through the gate… Once he moved in he wanted to add something at the door but didn’t want to cut walls to get a wire there. We always recommend at least a chime or a ds2 mini but You probably know how that goes. “Hey I know I told you no but……” 😂 Thanks for watching
They have TWO pools? Nice✅
I guess you can say that.. more like different levels or floors. 🙌🙌 Thanks you for watching!
That's a really nice house, huge house.
It’s a big one!!! Thanks for watching
One word...AMAZING! Great work
Thank you!!!! We appreciate you watching. Have a great one
Back of the rack is okay on wire management 4" vertical lacing would help clean that up a bit more, overall its decent. definitely can tell things were planned to be in certain spots but then the locations have changed. If you want them to be perfect a termination rack on the wall for everything then build the rack offsite and plugging it into the term rack will elevate the cable management. (probably a 12u on wall rack would be sufficient for you) Good on your for showing it though most people will only show the front. We do a term rack and offsite build and that's usually the first thing ill show a client in their house, and they show their friends who have a similar system just to flex on em. You can also use the split system as a sales tactic since all their expensive equipment can be unplugged and the rack wrapped out and wheeled out the house over to the new property.
Good video, we love control4 too!
Thank you!!! It’s a complete system. Just like every brand they all have a few things that could be fixed or improved but over all. We love it.
...... the Fn background noise
oh you'll be back for the rest of their life in the home with repairs on control4. you should make a video of the back of the racks and see what your work looks like behind the brains of cancer you sold them,.
Wow my guy, you really make time to leave a negative comment on every post 😂. It’s ok we appreciate the views And no worries stay tuned for our next walkthrough video, we show the back of the rack just for you. 😉
I'm sorry but there are just too many things to go wrong with these houses. I live in one and it's a pain.
I totally get how much of a pain it can be when things don’t work as they should. With smart homes, there are electronics involved, so some issues can pop up every now and then, but it shouldn’t be a regular thing. Sometimes it’s not even the control system itself-it could be things like settings, software updates, new devices added to your network, or even how the system was originally set up. The age of the system can also make a difference. If you’ve got a Control4 system installed within the last five years and it’s giving you constant trouble, I’d recommend writing down the issues and reaching out to another local Control4 integrator for a second opinion or a system check-up. Thanks again for watching, and I hope this helps!
@@empireavservices One problem is that when the power fails, everything has to be reset.
Adding an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) in the rack for your network and control system will keep that equipment from resetting when you have outages. You can also have them set static IP addresses for all of the equipment so you never have to reset it. (certain devices you have to manually power once if there’s a outage so we can get back on the network) Hope this helps
Lord comes in our hearts and homes also. AMEN
🙌
Ut the awful background noise made it impossible to watch all the way through. 👎🏼
Thanks.. we made a lot of changes and improvements to our content weekly. Check out the last video, we’ve taken all the feedback on music and music selection and implemented into our editing. 👍
This is a really nice house and very well thought out and laid out.
Thanks for watching…
This house was beautiful with all the technology added in is chefs kiss
🧑🍳🧑🍳 Thanks for watching!!
Dope home and video! Surprised the home owner didn’t go for the contemporary line of switches.
Thanks 💪
I am a home theater and general tech enthusiast. I had started diving into some diy home automation and have recently gotten a small control4 system installed. Most of these AV company videos are a cringey waste of time. This one is a nice walkthrough with some tangible information. Well done! As for 50k/5M = 1% of home price - I would say this is not unusual for a custom spec house. Potentially a nice perk for a prospective homebuyer.
We appreciate your feedback Ultimate goal is to be entertaining and educational and not cross over to cringey.. so thanks 😂 A lot of the stuff in this project is in entry level because it is a spec. However, options can go as far as the vision and budget can take it. Thanks for watching and subscribe to the channel if you have it .. It only gets better from here
I love everything in that room. That Josh AI seems amazing.
Thank you..: we appreciate the love!! Thanks for watching
Dude. Hope the keypad engravings are on the way.
And screwless cover plates. Much more finished look.
Thanks for your feedback and thanks for watching
Nice !!!
Thanks
literally anything thats opposition to c4 is better
We will say that in that before 2018 or the EA series controllers the system needed a lot of improvements however in the last few years it has really elevated to an industry leader. they are growing their market presence every year, so they have to be doing something right. Not sure why your experience was so bad, but maybe it isn’t for everyone. Either way thanks for watching.
Has C4 for 15 years and replaced it with Josh. Have enjoyed the UI and their attention to customer feedback for quick improvements much better than C4. Happy with the choice and combined with Ketra for lighting it is an amazing experience
Thanks for sharing your experience!! Ketra and Josh 👌👌 Thanks for watching.
the naming of this video and content coupled with ending it with not giving the verdict makes yall seem like a sleek underhanded salesman. use car salesman like
Wow that was a little harsh but thanks for watching. 😁
@@empireavservices Yeah I agree. To harsh of a comment. I must have been in a bad mood. LOL Love your videos. If I hadn't already hired a company from out of state I would have hired you.
But it still don't like the headline and no answer. lol
I have both. With my current ISP C4 is better. As speech to text recognition requires internet just like any voice assistant. Also their lighting offers more functionality beyond dimming the double and triple taps can be very useful. Then things that most people don’t think about like motion sensors and presences sensors for realtime info on occupancy is an edge for C4 as well. But Josh interface is modern sexy and it just picks up newly installed devices on the network with ease. Also issues with Josh they turn around updates with fixes VERY QUICKLY. But the best experience is having both.
It is definitely a great discussion! Thanks for sharing your thoughts, like always thank you for watching.
Very nicely done!
Thank you and thanks for watching.
I admire the work you've done and the hardware is good (speakers, tv, rack..), but from the software perspective you can hardly imagine how outdated and retrograded your result is. Seriously, you are like 10 years in the past...
🤔💭 ok, thanks we guess..
Fantastic video - video informative for someone looking at a Control4 home. What market are you located in?
We have branches in Texas and travel for certain projects in the U.S.. check out our from South Carolina “the Smart GetAway Tour… Thanks for watching
You don't tell us, and you don't link to a video or have a video on your channel with an obvious title. Why does this short even exist?
Because the video drops this week🍿… subscribe to the channel 😁
The gesture feature!! Thanks for sharing and showing Control4.
It is a cool feature and makes it a little more seamless, right?!
Those faceplates... Ouch! Nice project though.
Thanks for watching
Only a available thru a pro installer? A pass for me.
Very very clean room. Thanks for another walkthrough. Don't love having in-ceiling speakers for everything, but I'm sure they still sound great. Do love the giant TV and the undercabinent lighting. But again thanks for the great content.
Thanks for watching!! In-ceilings will always be a topic of conversation. Pros and cons but we will say that you can get great audio out of the right set up!! We appreciate your and feedback. Have a great one.
Nice system and gorgeous house and view.
Thanks for watching!!! It really is a beauty
1000 miles for weekly service calls is gonna make you a bag for sure, how people still use this product is actually nuts lol. for anyone reading if you buy a control4 you spend 100k set some change a side for a 30-50k repair every 2-4 years. ( ex control4 dealer, we left because it, felt so dishonest to sell to families regardless of their financial status)
System was completed 4 months ago and 0 service calls so far. We got Lucky I guess 🤷♂️ Control4, crestón and savant are all the same at this point, difference is on how and who sets them up. Very curious to know what you sell now that’s so much better and never has service calls. 🤔 No dishonesty here, been in business for 10 years and our clients love us so we have to be doing something right. Hey either way thanks for watching and commenting, it helps the algorithm. Have a great one and keep making smarterhomes 🏠🤳
question: Can you play different music in each room, or is it one station for the entire house ? 2. Can you add more servers (like Dell servers ) for other internet projects, like for storage or web servers ? 3. Can you monitor the network from a Internet web application ? I work in I.T. is why I ask.
The system has an audio matrix for individual control per room so every room can play its own source. On the streaming and music options The control4 processor has audio outs. (Depending on the model you can have 1,3 or 5) so you can listen to as many different streaming stations as the controller installed. (To answer your question.. with the correct equipment and programming you can do whatever you want) 2. Yea you can add a NAS for music and storage. (There is a list of recommended but majority will work) 3.yes the system has OVRC so the entire system and all devices can be monitored for an app or web browser. Hope that helped. Thanks for watching
@@empireavservices Yes, Thank you.
Есть ли у этого дома канализация и газ?
Why are those touch pad off from the lights switches.My OCD will kill me..😂
That doorbell doesn't look straight
🤔.
Mannn I’m about to go buy a house just to hire you for a project lol 😂 Great Video My a brother 👍🏾
Let’s do it!!!!!! 😂😂 We appreciate the love!!! Have a great week 💪
Why no Josh? I can't imagine doing a project to this level without Josh.
Client had control4 in his other homes and didn’t care to do Josh… No worries we have some Josh projects we are working on and will share 😁 Thanks for watching
This system could have been much better with a Processior and power amp set up!
Your right… there is always ways to make it better. In this and every scenario we take clients vision, budget, lifestyle, expectations and priorities to create the best system for them. Thanks for watching
Huge 115" TV for $20.000 at CEDIA 2024 or Huge 115" TV for $20,000 at CEDIA 2024 lol
Just scoot your couch closer to your current TV, free...
Can i add a High-capacity storage solution for data backup, media libraries, and shared storage across devices like the Synology rackstation or do you have anything similar? i didn't hear you mention anything storage. i currently have Synology RackStation RS3621xs+ NAS which i chose for remote storage and back on my mobile devices from anywhere.
Any plans for Josh AI to come to the UK?
few weeks? going on 6 weeks no Lutron, no Apple TV, Sonos, or JVC auth IP drivers yet.
🤷♂️ don’t shoot the messenger. 🤣 Jk Thanks for watching
Are yall planning on painting those hideous white grills on the ceiling? Other than that …. What an amazing result.!!! Yes I would have 2 subs in that space. Great work!!! Congrats
The hideous grills are now the same color of ceiling… stay tuned for the final walkthrough 😏 Thanks for watching
So how will the “Atmos” function in wall considering the arcs up firing speakers?
We asked the same thing.. There is a different model for the arc and the beam. The arc leaves enough space for the audio to come out. www.wall-smart.com/sonos-arc.html Thanks for watching 👍
DId you say that one room had 2 tvs and 1 was a different size? It looked like one.
Yes the 2 TV’s on top of of each other are 1 size and the large one next to them is another size. We posted the completion video go check it out . Thanks for watching.
@@empireavservices Cannot find the other video. so can you watch one game on all screen like its one screen? I am astonished you can do 3 tvs and one be a different size.
With Moip (media over IP) We can get real creative (different size, different directions and more) This project has a matrix so it can play the same game in each tv but not as a tv wall.. Hope that answered your question. Thanks for watching Here is the full gameroom video ruclips.net/video/6TVEe4B_6Oc/видео.htmlfeature=shared
Love this discussion. IMO clients that are buying multi-million dollars just want things to work and work well. They are not DIYers (mostly) and happy to pay for things that work and will save them time. They aren't likely audiophiles and super picky about speaker placement. As the integrator said, aesthetics are most important and their design budget will make the integrator budget look like pennies. If they want a nice tv with sound, then most likely they'll invest in a dedicated home theater where they can prioritize sound and video. Keep up the content. You're one of the best of the integrator content producers I've seen. I think it is just that you are authentic and walk through details.
It’s definitely a great discussion. DYIErs VS Integrators. We appreciate your comment and feedback. Working really hard to improve our content with every video we post so your comments means more than you know. Thanks for watching.
