Home Theater

There is a lot of technology embedded in the typical home theater or home entertainment system, and it's increasing rapidly with the growth of digital satellite/cable, DVDs, MP3 digital audio, and personal video recorders (PVRs) such as TiVO and ReplayTV.

Just as interesting is the trend to connect home entertainment systems with the home network, creating a home entertainment network that is capable of distributing video, music, and system control throughout the house.

Once this is done, home entertainment opportunities multiply, since new applications can be incorporated (just like with PCs) by installing software, and the power of the Internet can expand entertainment options.

Control Freaks provides our customers with services and support in the emerging field of computer and home entertainment convergence. We are pleased to provide you with exciting new options for helping you create your own home entertainment network!
