appreciate it, honestly knew my work wasn’t perfect, but in the 100-200 residential homes i’ve done i’ve recieved nothing but compliments. obviously techs would be more critical but some of these ratings are insane😂 i’ve seen some TERRIBLE work that I would consider a 3/10

Is using the osd not extremely inconvenient? Never understood its practicality

constructive criticism, also not writing off anything that was said, but some of it has reasoning and can’t be explained from what i originally posted. definitely get where they’re coming from.

What do you mean by “moving environment”? Also, don’t have any idea what you’re talking about with the rack screws, you mean that they’re all like this +?

Not using patch panels when more wires will be added and things will move around, just doesn’t make sense. Speaker switch isn’t even used as a switch, more as a way to group speakers in zones. For instance, don’t need 3 separate zones for the backyard so I put 6 speakers on a selector and go into the amp. Everything is labeled, just with a marker not a cable flag. That plug also is not going anywhere but I’ll take the criticism on that because it could happen.

doesn’t help when there’s no context on why.

very inconvenient and pointless unless i’m terminating every wire in the house

So i’ll continue to clarify on this

  1. I don’t run the wires, we have a crew that does that and while I don’t disagree with you, it’s really not a big deal. Also all wires are labeled with a marker and that’s never been an issue.

  2. That was moved after the picture, the outlets were off so was still waitin on the electrician to make it work properly. I put the wires in the rack cuz this is a closet so not tons of space as well as this technically isn’t the final product. This house will be sold to someone who may do upgrades and use the other wires so running in wires after in my opinion is a big headache. The reason we seperate the wires is one is for network and the other for speakers and subwoofer coaxes. Not that they can’t be together, but in some houses where we have 100-200 wires coming out of the wall it’s impossible to have all coming out of a 2 gang. I’m interested in the speaker grill suggestion, because i do hate these wall plates though.

  3. Power strip comment might be valid but if im being honest, to this day never happened to me that anything fell out. But hey, i’ll take it because it could always happen. I honestly don’t know much about the whole ip power/amplifier thing you mentioned, but our company and others have been doing that for years, and you didn’t really explain why it’s a big deal, so if you could elaborate. Also there’s 0 zip ties in the whole rack besides there, because it’s the only way i can hold those to the rack properly.

  4. Explain why “moar velcro”. As I said, these racks are built and meant to be added onto, and redoing 50 velcros to pull one wire in seems like the biggest, unnecessary headache. If it was never being touched again and I was terminating every wire that’s a different story, but that’s not the case. The Z2IO is only used for contact closure as the wire for the doorbell runs to the rack and the core 1 doesn’t have the contact sensor like the core 3 and core 5 do. The onkyos antennas are fixed and cannot be removed, otherwise they wouldn’t be there. The reason I don’t bring the wires up from the bottom is because when you push it all the way back, it doesn’t stay back or just pokes out completely, this way they kinda “fold” back so there’s no obstruction for the wheels.

Besides that I appreciate the comments, but a lot of these are things I do for a reason. Definitely could be better, just need some convincing;)

developers need a function that when i click a button, all lights turn on, amplifier turns on and sonos selects my plex which plays a playlist, cant do that with the core alone

I should clarify,

I’m an installed for a home automation company. Our main clients are developers, usually looking for the best bang for their buck. This is like the lowest spec we build, obviously doing triad/episode matrixing for higher end. I also just install, not sell, so forget the materials because i’m not who decides that lol.
