Sonos music system
The Sonos ZonePlayer brings great sounding music to any and every room in your house - regardless of where your music collection is stored. You can play the same song or different songs in as many rooms as you'd like. Simultaneously. No other digital music system lets you do that.
If you're wondering why Sonos called it a ZonePlayer rather than a room player, the answer is simple: a room doesn't always define the space where you want to listen to music - think living room + dining room, not to mention your patio, garage and swimming pool.
SimplySonos can guide you with your speaker selection for your zones. For example you may want to share a zone player between rooms or install ceiling speakers. Master AV Services can install your sonos system as part of installation involving plasma screens and home cinema or just as an addition to your existing system

Plasma and LCD screens mounted on plasterboard and stud walls
We fitted 4 screens today in London. A Pioneer 50" and a 40" LCD Samsung, both on a plasterboard wall. All the cables such as HDMI had already been chased, and hidden into the wall.
A Panasonic screen was mounted using an articulated arm bracket on a stud wall. This would normally be a problem because of the lack of a secure fixing but as the screen was light coupled with being able to locate a central stud with our detector it was possible.
The fourth screen was a 42" Samsung plasma TV screen which was mounted on chimney breast with just surface mounted cables in trunking. We also had to extend the Sky cables. This plasma screen was fitted on a tilt bracket to help extend the viewing angle.

Mirror plasma screen fitting
The plasterers then came in and finished the decoration. After which, we returned for a final wall mounting and fitting of the plasma TV.
Pioneer to stop making plasma panels
Recent claims suggest that in favour of sourcing plasma panels through a third-party, this may only be the start of changes taking place at Pioneer. It’s now being said that the company is finalizing plans to out source the whole lot.
Last week, Japanese newspaper Asahi reported that Pioneer is looking to buy 46in and smaller plasma display panels from Matsushita Electric Industries, owner of the Panasonic brand, or from Hitachi.
A spokesperson for Pioneer later confirmed that the company is reviewing its plasma display business because of poor sales performance.
Japanese publication Nikkei, citing company sources, today claimed that Pioneer is finalising plans to buy in all sizes of plasma panels and shut down one of its three plasma production sites in Japan this year.
Panasonic TH37PX70 Plasma TV -1080P
Panasonic TH37PX70 37 inch Plasma TV is avaliable in ether wall mounted or pedestal mounted versions. The screen is finished in high gloss piano black with the speakers mounted underneath the screen. Other key points are that it has 2 HDMI ports and is fully 1080p HD compatible.
Starting slowly with a sub-standard specification, the Panasonic TH37PX70 didn’t get us excited initially, but once we checked out its second-to-none performance we were completely turned around. Our excitement took over, and regardless of trying, we just couldn’t take our eyes off the Panasonic TH37PX70 Television.
Vogel's Electric Wall Mount for Plasma and LCD screens
The Glider™ is unique in many ways. It moves like no other wall support on the market, gliding along the wall while turning at the same time in a impressively fluid and efficient motion. It features soft-start en soft-stop for safety and style, as well as user-programmable pre-sets for often used viewing angles. Another great feature is the auto-home function: the Glider™ senses when the TV is switched off and will return to the wall automatically! Suitable for 42-60'' screens. This wall mount is suitable for wall mounting fitting of most manufacturers of plasma and LCD screens.

London office LCD screen AV installation
Master AV Services brief for this large office installation was to fit 14 screens in total.
- One 42" Samsung plasma in the lobby to be used for company presentations.
- 42"LG plasma in board room on ceiling mount.
- Two 32" Sharp LC32X20E LCD TV s in gym area.
- One 42" LG plasma in relax area.
- The rest of the screens were mounted on trading floor. These 9 were, 42" Sharp LCDAquos on tilt wall brackets. These screens were mounted on supporting pillars.
All screens were fed with a digital Freeview aerial and RF feeds from two Sky boxes located in comms room. The screens in the lobby and board room were fed via cat6 from a PC in the comms room where we converted the VGA output from the PC to CAT6 and reversed the process at the screen end back to VGA. Aerial and sky RF were distributed from 16 way aerial amplifier and combiner this allowed separate control via sky eyes located on screens.
Pioneer PDP428XD-T25B plasma screen
This Pioneer plasma TV and Bose home cinema required all cables to be hidden into the walls including where the Sky cable entered the room. We had to drill through the pillar as can be seen in picture. All other speaker cables, HDMI, SCART and component cables were chased into the wall. Our client had already employed an electrician who was going to carry out the installation but the client realised that there may be problems when he chased in only one SCART cable. Not really sufficient these days!
Subsequently, all the cables were chased into the wall and the whole system was then set up and tested. We then removed the components ready for the decorators. We returned a few weeks later to refit, set up and test.
Toshiba LCD and home cinema installation
This Toshiba LCD and home cinema installation involved chasing all the cables into the wall on the chimney breast. All the equipment
- Sky HD
- AV receiver, Denon AV-3808
- PS3
All the equipment was controlled via a remote relay. This clever device receives IR signals and converts them to RF. They can then past through walls up to 30M. The IR receiver which sits close to the Audio Visual equipment converts the signal back to IR which then controls the AV receiver etc. Speakers were fitted up at ceiling level. This wasn't our recommendation but instructed by the client. The walls were then plastered to undercoat finish ready for decoration.
