Customer Testimonials
Cory and Grant, our Live Wire technicians, were punctual, thorough, courteous, and professional. They were attentive to the care of our home during their execellent upgrade of our internet speed and the precise installation of smart televisions, Sonos sound bars, and Sonos speakers. They patiently instructed us on the download of the Sonos app and its use. The quality and sound of the Sonos products are superlative and have exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend Live Wire and Sonos products.

We contacted Livewire to come out to help design an outdoor theater system for us. Mario was very helpful bouncing ideas around on the initial visit and we were able to come up with a really cool set up! Matt and Grant showed up and knocked it out. These guys put together EXACTLY what we were looking for in a very timely and professional way. Matt had some great ideas on-site and made this thing perfect. I recommend the Livewire team to anyone! These guys are awesome!

I’ve used Livewire for a few projects in my home and loved the outcome each time. The installers are extremally professional and my account rep that I’ve been working with, Marshall, has been a fantastic asset and is always willing to help answer questions. They made my dream of having my own theater a reality and I couldn’t be happier. I know of a few more projects I’ll have them come out for over the next few years and I look forward to working with them all.

Livewire is the best! Have used them many times in the past from audio installation to smart lighting. Very knowledgeable and current on technology. Installers on time always and gets the job done right. Most recent experience was no different - excellence in replacing some patio speakers and wiring. Highly recommend them for any AV needs and smart home solutions.

Live-wire works really hard to make sure all equipment is in great working order. We had a lot of problem with equipment that was outdated, had to replace some control 4 units. Last we loss our ability to turn our movie room theater on remotely, but thanks to Jim Zimmerman every thing is now up and working great. Thank you

Good Company. Everyone from the sales guy to the installers did a great job. Had them install surround in an existing home. A lot of wire fishing, cutting into dry wall etc. They were professional, talented and got the job done on budget. The surround and tv sound and look fantastic and it's always great to be able to settle down in the family room and watch a movie, play a little Play Station or listen to music with a really immersive sound setup. Great job. Would use them again and I highly recommend them.

Love our outdoor entertainment center. We’ve had some issues but Livewire has worked with us to get them resolved. Dustin came out on a service call today and was awesome. He found we had a bad port on our tv. Switched ports so we are up and running while we wait for new circuit board. He was very professional and got the job done. I would recommend Livewire.

These guys do great work! My wife and I just bought our first house and Dustin came out and helped mount our 55 inch tv on a full motion mount above the fireplace since we didn’t have the proper tools and I’m not the greatest handyman 😂 We love how it looks in our living room! Would highly recommend Livewire!

Great experience with Livewire today attaching my tv to my stone fireplace and setting up my Control4 and Sonos soundbar. Dustin and David were both clean and efficient. They made sure I knew how to work everything before they left. Call Brad at Livewire if you’re looking for expert installation.

I set up a service appointment to take care of a bad HDMI cable that was behind the wall. Less than an hour later, I got a call fromAndre, one of their service techs. He asked me some questions about the issue and even had me text a picture of the setup. He then came up with an innovative, easy solution that I could do on my own, for free, avoiding a costly service appointment.Livewire may have lost that particular piece of business, but they’ve won a customer for life. I look forward to having them to my house to resolve our (inevitable) next issue.

The installation went smoothly, however we had an issue with our cable connection that we didn't discover for a couple of days. We called Will our salesperson and when none of the technicians we're available on a Friday afternoon, Will came right out and he solved the problem on all 3 of our TV's within about 30 minutes. He explained everything he did and gave us the old cables that he removed to dispose of. He told us if we have any other issues to call him directly. This was great customer service in my opinion and we are very satisfied, especially with Will and his professionalism in solving our problem so quickly. Thanks Will!

A while back I posted a 1-star review of Livewire based on my initial experience with the company. I am now pleased to give Livewire a 5-star review based on the response to my initial review. Josh McDonough, operations manager, contacted me soon after the initial review went live. He had read the review and understood the reasons for my dissatisfaction. He and Dustin Roskam, service support lead, arrived today to make come changes to the setup about which I had complained. When they were through, I had what I had expected in the first place: simultaneous sound through the soundbar and through my hearing aids, when allows my wife and me to watch TV at the same time. Normally, I wouldn't give a 5-star review for a second attempt at delivering what was promised initially, but Josh and Dustin's professionalism won me over.

Livewire’s tech support is second to none. Had an issue this past Sunday with my system, and had 2 service calls on that day to help resolve. When they say they are 24/7 support… they truly mean 24/7. Thanks to Zachary at Parasol & Cory at Livewire for their efforts! And a HUGE thank you to Dustin at Livewire for completing the resolution today! Back on track now, and everything is great. I continue to love the ease & functionality of the household system that Livewire installed 6 yrs ago, upgraded 4 years ago, and upgraded a second time 3 years ago. Livewire is the BEST!

The most professional team! Brad & Matt make a dynamic duo. They came into our home, listened, and delivered. We are thrilled with our home entertainment system. Brad understood what we were looking for in our home and brought in great products. I could tell he cared about us and really wanted to make our set up great. The skill level of the technician (Matt) was above and beyond what I expected. He was thorough in his explanations on how to use the new products (even my dumb questions). When they left, it was like they were never there. Clean and tidy! I am so thankful for LiveWire and the team members they brought out to our home. In a world with so many choices, they made it easy to understand, choose and enjoy the right products for our home.
