There's really no end to the unique and varied AV projects the industry faces today. Each is like a puzzle that conveys nothing until every piece is in place. But unlike a traditional puzzle, AV projects differ in the pieces that integrators, installers, and consultants bring to bear. After rounds of client interviews they know what the end result needs to be, but through experience, relationships, or dogged product research, they often bring a unique mix of systems and solutions to achieve that end result. On the following pages, we profile three very different AV installs with an eye toward the product mix that made them successful. The mannequin? Well, he was owner-furnished.
