BTW, @Andrew luecke and others, considering I do not have word-of-mouth recommendations, are there some specific places I should be looking for local dealers - I am curating a list from 1) C4 dealers 2) Yelp. Any other places I should be searching? Much thanks

Great. Thanks @Andrew luecke This is super helpful and reinforces my search for SEA based C4 person who sort of does it all. Maybe much easier to manage and hopefully cost effective. I guess we aren't supposed to talk $$ but it would have been so helpful to get some idea on what these things cost typically. Or what am I even going to negotiate on. Anyways, I hope some SEA installer is even reading these ;-

Thanks @chopedogg88 My goal was to land someone local and build with 'em slowly. I am savvy enough (work for a software company) but I don't mind if there are places wherein I can use someone else's brains, who has experience in that space. So, remote may work after things are steup but would be tough to start with. Thanks for your tips @Andrew luecke question - While I still look for C4 dealers in Seattle do you think it is smarter and cost effective to piece meal these - Ex: Do, network installation through someone and audio/video with someone else and finally bring in the C4 dealer?

<sorry if this is a spam. i tried to promote an older thread and can't tell if it went through> Just finishing up my home and looking for an installer. Trying to avoid the usual known big shops as I think they'd be expensive. I want to start small Lighting: Lutron Caseta as I don't have $$ for RA2, RA3 but will definitely upgrade in future) Whole House Audio: Sonos for who house audio (very used to Sonos since its inception). Networking: Nothing crazy but a Ubiquii or something similar would do. I have always had Netgear Orbi's etc which do the job but I always wondered if UBs were an upgrade. Some folks quote Araknis et al which I believe is an overkill. C4: A basic C4 system with a wal control upstairs and downstairs that pull all of this into one app/one experience Josh.AI: Only if budget permits I'd like to splurge just a bit to try this beauty. I won't nickle and dime but i do want a say in hardware Ex: Speakers, projectors etc and maybe even purchase some on my own to avoid markup/ leverage deals. So, if anyone wants to work with me I can assure you I will be a good long term customers and can get referrals too. #Seattle #Kirkland
