 Excellent replacement system

Pros: Durable, Easy to Install, Easy to Use, Well Designed
Best Uses: Big Jobs, Small Jobs
Describe Yourself: Professional
Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

My second install of this system and both customers are extremely happy with the results. Both homes were $1,000,000.00 plus and very picky customers. The installation went very easily with almost no changes necessary to the existing walls. The sound quality is great and was able to easily integrate driveway monitor system and MP3 player. I am not afraid to recommend to the most discriminating customer. Would have given 5 stars but the outdoor stations all needed slight modifications to fit the provided mounting rings.
