FR Review:
Bright Home Theater is a midsized firm dedicated to customized A/V systems that fit clients like a glove. “Bright” refers to Kerry Bright, an affable techie and pro audio expert who started the firm in 2004. Before that, Bright had been working in A/V, before that as a general contractor, and before that, as a master carpenter. Clients report favorably on this background, saying that Bright’s handiness means that custom cabinetry for unruly home theater gear is no problem.

Over the past decade, the firm has grown from being a small outfit to a mid-sized company with a charming East Village showroom. With six installers and a full office support staff, this firm has tackled a variety of jobs with a variety of scales: from high-end home theater rigs to corporate boardrooms. Some level of home integration (lighting control, HVAC, etc.) is usually part of the package. As with all A/V work, the prices are not rock-bottom, but clients report that the company delivers a considerable value by charging low markups on product and including unexpected service perks (like the testing and optimization of flatscreen TVs before they’re installed). Bright’s hands-on enthusiasm for all things tech is also reportedly a money saver: he knows where the market is going, and has saved clients thousands by steering them toward technology that will stand the test of time.

Representative Client Comments:
“Real ‘elbow grease’ type guys. They don’t wear suits and push paper around, they actually get out there and wire it.” “Out of four or five companies I worked with, they had the fairest pricing system and the most transparent budget.” “They’re perfect for apart- ment-sized jobs and individualized rigs.” “We had a budget conflict with them, but they handled it professionally.” “The project was designed, quoted and installed exactly as represented.” “Kerry is very hands-on. Which means he’s always on the various job sites he has going. I would have liked a more standardized process for getting in touch with him.” “The team at BHT is really interested in being on the cutting edge of audio video technology.” “This is the kind of firm you want to keep working with.”

Project Description & Comments:
Bright home Theater is my go to audio video and Home Theater company. These guys are the absolute best. They built a custom theater and whole house Crestron system. They installed invisible speakers so we hear awesome music but do not have any speakers that can be seen. My wife and I love the lighting system that we can control form our phones. I would absolutely hire bright again
