Once your TV or home theater system is physically in place, the real work begins — getting the picture, settings, sources, streaming, and calibration dialed in properly. Whether you need a new TV set up and ready to use, a noticeably better picture, or a precision-calibrated system, there's a service here for exactly where you are.
Whether you just got a new TV or want to get more out of the system you already have, the services below are designed to match exactly what you need — from simple setup all the way to professional calibration and advanced home theater tuning.
Got a new TV, or need to start fresh? I'll connect it to your WiFi, log into your streaming apps, hook up your devices (cable box, streaming stick, game console, and more), get your remote sorted, and do a basic picture pass for your room. I'll walk you through how everything works before I leave so you're comfortable using it.
Most TVs come from the factory with settings tuned for a bright showroom floor — not your living room. Using test patterns, I'll adjust brightness, contrast, sharpness, motion, and HDR settings for how and where you actually watch. The result is a noticeably more natural, accurate-looking picture. Most people benefit from this. It stops short of a full professional calibration, but the improvement is real and visible.
For customers who want the most accurate, balanced picture their TV is capable of delivering. Using specialized calibration tools and software, I measure and tune white balance and color for a more precise result than picture optimization alone can achieve — better color accuracy, improved shadow detail, and a more natural overall image. Pricing depends on display type and calibration requirements.
A clean audio upgrade without the complexity of a full surround system. I'll connect your soundbar, configure your TV's audio output, make sure ARC or eARC is working correctly, integrate your source devices, and adjust the subwoofer if you have one. Includes remote simplification so everything stays easy to use day to day.
For a proper surround sound system with an AV receiver. I'll configure your receiver, assign and balance your speakers, set up all your inputs and sources, and run built-in room correction where your receiver supports it. Everything tuned so the system sounds balanced and immersive throughout your room — not just in the sweet spot.
For systems that need more than a standard auto-calibration pass. Using a calibrated measurement microphone and acoustic analysis software, I take precision measurements, refine your system's frequency response, dial in subwoofer integration, and apply corrections that go well beyond what automatic calibration alone achieves. The same approach applies to home theater audio as to TV calibration — specialized tools, measurement-based, precision results.
New TV Setup is built for this — getting your TV connected, your apps installed, your devices hooked up, and everything working the way you want it.
TV Picture Optimization or Soundbar Setup gets you a clear, real-world improvement without going all the way to professional calibration or advanced home theater tuning.
Professional TV Calibration or Advanced Home Theater Optimization is for customers who want precision results — accurate color, better shadow detail, a properly measured and tuned system.
All prices are clear and agreed upon before I begin work.

Things people often ask about TV setup and calibration.
Connecting your TV to WiFi, getting your streaming apps installed and logged in, hooking up your cable box, game console, streaming stick, or other devices, getting your remote sorted, and doing a basic picture pass for your room. I'll also walk you through how everything works before I leave.
Picture optimization uses test patterns to adjust brightness, contrast, sharpness, motion, and HDR settings so the picture looks natural in your specific room. It's a meaningful improvement over the factory defaults — and most people benefit from it.
Professional calibration goes deeper. Using specialized tools and software, I measure and tune your TV's white balance and color for a more accurate, precise result. Better color accuracy, improved shadow detail, a more natural overall image. It's for customers who want to see what their TV is truly capable of.
It depends on you. If you've invested in a good TV and want to see it perform at its best — accurate colors, better shadow detail, a more natural picture overall — it's genuinely worth it. If you just want a noticeable improvement over the factory settings without going that deep, picture optimization usually delivers that at a lower cost.
If you're not sure, just describe what you have and what you're hoping for, and I'll help you figure out which makes more sense.
Yes. I take home theater audio as seriously as the picture. Using a calibrated measurement microphone and acoustic analysis software, I can measure your room's actual response, dial in speaker levels, refine subwoofer integration, and apply corrections that go well beyond what your receiver's automatic calibration can achieve on its own. If you want the audio to match the precision of a properly calibrated picture, that level of care is available.
Yes. Depending on the service, I use test patterns, calibration hardware, a calibrated measurement microphone, and acoustic analysis software to measure and tune your system. This is what makes real calibration different from just adjusting the picture menu by eye.
Yes — that's exactly the focus. Once your TV or system is in position, I specialize in getting the picture, settings, sources, streaming, and calibration dialed in properly. I don't handle wall mounting, but everything that comes after that is my area.
Just describe what you have and what you're hoping to get out of it — I'll help you figure out whether basic setup, picture optimization, or calibration is the right fit. There's no pressure to go for the more expensive option if it isn't the right call for your situation.
