About the Service

Home Theater & Surround Sound Wiring, Done Right

A good theater starts behind the walls: clean power for the equipment, in-wall speaker wiring, HDMI and Ethernet runs, and lighting that can dim and set the mood. We plan all of it so no cables show and everything works together.

We install in-wall and in-ceiling speaker wire, mount-ready power behind TVs, projector power and cabling, and lighting control. For equipment setup and calibration, we can coordinate with your AV installer.

Music City Electrical brings home theater & surround sound wiring to homes and businesses in Nashville and across 22 Middle Tennessee cities.
