Why Whole Home Audio

Music Everywhere, Speakers Nowhere

A whole home audio system fills every room with music while keeping speakers completely invisible — flush-mounted in ceilings and walls, painted to match your décor, with no visible wires, no countertop clutter, and no Bluetooth pairing headaches. Centralized amplifiers power everything from a rack or closet, and a single app gives you instant control over every zone.

We design and install distributed audio covering your entire home — kitchen, living room, master suite, bathrooms, office, garage, patio, pool deck, and beyond. We run all speaker wire during new construction or retrofit through attic and wall cavities, install and aim every speaker, configure amplifiers and streaming, and integrate audio with your smart home. Licensed low-voltage contractor, ROC #357379.

In-Ceiling & In-Wall

The Backbone: Invisible Speakers

In-Ceiling Speakers

Mounted flush and painted to match, in-ceiling speakers are nearly invisible while delivering room-filling sound from above. We install 6.5″ and 8″ models from Sonance (designed and tuned in collaboration with Sonos) and other premium manufacturers — standard stereo pairs, single-stereo point-source speakers for smaller rooms, and angled models for optimal listening positions.

In-Wall Speakers

In-wall speakers mount flush in the wall and are ideal for left/center/right channels in media rooms, or where ceiling installation isn’t practical. They deliver a more directional, focused sound — for dedicated listening zones and home theater surround applications.

Patio, Pool & Landscape

Outdoor Speakers Built for Arizona

Arizona’s year-round outdoor lifestyle demands audio on the patio, at the pool, and around the outdoor kitchen. We install weather-rated outdoor speakers and subwoofers designed to withstand extreme heat, UV exposure, and monsoon moisture.

Landscape speakers blend into rock features and planters for invisible outdoor audio. All outdoor speakers are wired back to your centralized amplifiers and appear as controllable zones in your system.

How It Works

Our Audio Installation Process

One point of contact from zone map to the first playlist.

01 · Consultation & Zone Planning

We walk your home, discuss how you use each room, and design your zone map — speaker models, locations, amplifier assignments, and control interfaces — with a detailed proposal.

02 · Structured Cabling

16- to 12-gauge speaker wire from every speaker location back to your amplifier rack or closet, labeled at both ends. During rough-in for new builds; through attic, wall cavities, and conduit for existing homes.

03 · Speaker Installation

We cut openings, mount every speaker, verify fit and aim, and paint grilles to match. Placement is optimized for even coverage and stereo imaging.

04 · Amplifier & Network Setup

Rack- or closet-mounted amplifiers, speaker wiring connected, network configured, Sonos (or Savant/Alarm.com) set up with streaming services, AirPlay, and voice assistants.

05 · Tuning & Programming

Levels, EQ, and delay set per zone for room size and acoustics; automation scenes programmed; grouping and sources verified. Full walkthrough of app, wall controls, and voice.

06 · Ongoing Support

Firmware updates, zone additions, speaker upgrades, and new platforms. When you add a pool house or finish a basement, we extend the system seamlessly.

FAQ

Whole Home Audio Questions, Answered

How much does a whole home audio system cost in Phoenix?

Costs depend on the number of zones, speaker quality, and platform. A 2–3 zone system with quality in-ceiling speakers and a Sonos Amp powering each zone typically runs $2,000–$5,000 installed. A 6–10 zone whole-home system with premium Sonance speakers, a Sonos Amp Multi, and integration with your smart home platform ranges from $8,000 to $25,000+. Planet Geek provides free consultations with detailed proposals.

What is the difference between wireless speakers and a distributed audio system?

Wireless speakers (like Sonos One, Era 300) are standalone units that connect to your WiFi. They’re easy to set up but visible in your room. A distributed audio system uses in-ceiling or in-wall speakers wired back to centralized amplifiers — the speakers are nearly invisible, the sound fills the room evenly, and you have clean aesthetics with no countertop clutter. For new construction and remodels, distributed audio with hardwired speakers is the gold standard.

Can I play different music in different rooms?

Yes. Multi-zone audio systems let you play different sources in different rooms simultaneously, or group all rooms together for whole-home party mode. Each zone has independent volume control. The Sonos app, Savant app, or wall keypads let you control everything from your phone or a dedicated interface.

Does Planet Geek install outdoor speakers?

Yes. We install weather-rated outdoor speakers and subwoofers from Sonance, Sonos, and other manufacturers for patios, pool decks, courtyards, and outdoor kitchens. Outdoor speakers are wired back to your amplifier and integrated into your multi-zone system so they show up as a controllable zone alongside your indoor rooms. All outdoor wiring is UV-rated and properly conduit-routed.

Can whole home audio integrate with my home theater and smart home?

Absolutely. Your distributed audio system can share sources with your home theater, play TV audio through ceiling speakers in the kitchen while you cook, and integrate with Savant, Alarm.com, and Lutron for scenes like ‘Entertain’ (music in all zones, lights to 50%, shades open) or ‘Goodnight’ (all audio off, lights dimmed, doors locked).
