My Son, CR (Charles Robert) has assisted on 50% of my installations for the past 9 years . At 27 years, if he's not working on Schweitzer Mountain on ski repair (awarded Employee of the Year 2015), or Fire Fighting for Idaho Department of Lands, bow hunting for Elk, rifle hunting for white tail, fishing, shed hunting, etc. he's working with me.
We do work an approximate 65 mile radius, but at times 100 + miles.

Major, High End Retrofit
MOST CREATIVE AUDIOPHILE RETROFIT CHALLENGE! Recently a high end custom integrator from the Portland Market was searching for a custom guy in my local market to install provided gear for his In-Law's newly purchased retirement home. They have a Panasonic TH60PF30U (108lb monster monitor), mounted above the fireplace with a Chief Dual Articulating TS525T (thin series) mount, a Marantz SR5008 used solely for Preamp digital audio & video switching to a Parasound Halo 2 Channel amp feeding a pair of Aerial Acoustics Model 6 speakers. An Oppo 103 Bluray hardwired to a router for network apps and Audio Quest Audio, Video, HDMI & Speaker Cables. All protected by a APC H15 power protection unit. Did I mention Retrofit? A fun project because in North Idaho we normally don't have the Audiophile Client base to work with!

Testimonials
Comments: " Daniel diagnosed the issue right off the bat and ordered the correct part. We love our plasma TV that is not even 3 years old and were frustrated to learn that Plasma TV's have been discontinued from production, but he had ours back up and working within a week. Great service and we highly recommend him for all your TV/Audio needs"

Marcel C
"Dan did a total retrofit of what was in the town home at the 'White Box' stage. We used none of the audio wiring that was done at the earlier construction. Dan also set our eight TV's along with our total house intercom/sound system with speakers in all six bedrooms, the library, the living room, and the theater room. He set our outside security cameras and our Direct TV Satellite system coordinated with the Northland cable system. He has also come back later to trouble shoot various systems along with adding a Sirius Satellite system. Of course we are also setup with Internet, but that is pretty much Northland Wireless. We do recommend Dan for audio/visual work" - Eric R. & Lois H.in Sandpoint, ID
"Was one third the price of other companies that bid for the job of pre-wiring new construction house for TV, stereo speakers, and internet service. Installed extra cables for future expansion at no additional cost. Received more than what was bid on the job" - Terry W in Coeur d'Alene, ID
"Dan Christians provided and installed sound systems in both my daughter’s condominium in downtown Sandpoint and in our home near Sandpoint. While we are not very knowledgeable about the technology, systems, and products available today, we did have pretty definite ideas about desired sound quality, functionality, and aesthetics. Dan listened carefully, researched available products, and put together systems that matched and exceeded our requirements. Installation was also done quite professionally. All of this was done expeditiously and at very reasonable prices. For people like us in North Idaho, Dan is your man." - C. H. Sandpoint, ID
