What We Build

Two Ways to Experience Sound and Cinema

A dedicated theater that rivals a commercial cinema, or music flowing through every room. We design, install, and integrate both — and they work together from the start.

Cinema & Theater

Home Theater & Media Rooms

A dedicated space built for cinematic immersion. We design the room around the experience — projector and screen selection, speaker placement calculated for your space, acoustic treatment, ambient lighting, motorized shades, seating layout, and a control system that makes it all feel effortless. One tap and the room transforms.

Projectors from Epson, Sony, and Leica — from high-value 4K to reference-grade laser cinema
Screen Innovations — motorized, fixed-frame, ambient light rejecting, and acoustically transparent screens
Surround sound with Klipsch, Bowers & Wilkins, DALI, and Phase Technology — 5.1 through immersive Atmos
AV processing from Marantz, NAD, AudioControl, Integra, and AV Pro Edge
Acoustic treatment, light control, and seating layout designed around your room dimensions
One-touch control — lights dim, shades close, projector fires, and the movie starts
Whole-Home Audio

Multi-Room Audio

Music in every room, controlled from the apps you already use. VSSL streaming amplifiers with in-ceiling and in-wall speakers — each zone plays its own source or syncs together. No proprietary apps. No subscriptions. Just your music, everywhere.

VSSL A.6x — 6-zone streaming amplifier with AirPlay 2, Chromecast, Spotify Connect, and Alexa built in
In-ceiling and in-wall speakers from Bluesound, Klipsch, Truaudio, and Bowers & Wilkins
Independent zone control — each room plays its own source or syncs with others
Voice control via Alexa, Google Assistant, and Siri — no remote or app required
Scalable — stack VSSL units for 12, 18, or more zones as your system grows
Retrofit-friendly — we install speakers and run wiring in finished homes with minimal disruption
The Finishing Touch

AVA Cinema Remote

The most refined way to control a home theater. One remote. One touch. Total immersion.

AVA Cinema Remote installed by Rivas Technology Group

One Remote. Zero Complexity.

Effortless control. Cinematic indulgence.

The AVA Cinema Remote replaces every remote in your theater with a single, machined-aluminum device. Its edge-to-edge touchscreen and dynamic keypad adapt to whatever you're controlling — projector, audio, lighting, shades — so the interface always makes sense without hunting for buttons.

AVA OS runs directly on the remote with a built-in octa-core processor — no external controller required. One touch dims the lights, lowers the screen, starts the projector, and queues the movie.

Built-in AVA OS — no external processor hardware needed for single-room installs
Dynamic Keypad with 3D glass ring — adapts buttons and labels to the active source
Google Certified — run Spotify, streaming apps, and smart home controls directly on the remote
Supports up to 15,000 devices — scales from a single room to a whole-home system via Nano Brain
Control4 integration via webhook — custom button triggers that fire Control4 events, bridging both platforms
Machined aluminum body with magnetic USB-C charging — up to 6 days of battery life
AVA Cinema Remote is available exclusively through certified dealers. As an AVA Certified partner, we handle design, configuration, and installation.

Common Questions

Home Theater & Audio FAQ

How much does a custom home theater cost?

Theater projects vary widely based on room size, display choice, speaker configuration, acoustic treatment, and seating. A dedicated media room with a quality projector, screen, surround sound, and control typically starts in the mid-five-figure range. We offer free consultations and design systems across a range of budgets.

What is multi-room audio and how does it work?

Multi-room audio distributes music to speakers throughout your home using a centralized amplifier like the VSSL A.6x. Each zone can play its own source or sync together. You control everything from your phone using apps you already know — Spotify, Apple Music, Pandora — through AirPlay 2, Chromecast, or voice assistants. Read our VSSL overview →

What is the AVA Cinema Remote?

The AVA Cinema Remote is a premium handheld remote with an edge-to-edge touchscreen, dynamic keypad, and built-in AVA OS processor. It controls your entire theater from a single device with no external processor required. We've also engineered a custom integration between AVA and Control4 using webhooks, so your theater remote can trigger scenes across your entire smart home. Read about our AVA + Control4 integration →

Can I add multi-room audio to my existing home?

Yes. We install in-ceiling and in-wall speakers with minimal disruption to finished spaces. VSSL amplifiers mount in your equipment rack and connect to your existing network. For homes without pre-wired speaker runs, we run new cabling through attics and crawl spaces.

What speaker brands do you install?

We install Bowers & Wilkins, Klipsch, DALI, Truaudio, Phase Technology, and Bluesound. We match the right speakers to each room based on acoustics, use case, and budget — from architectural in-ceiling speakers to dedicated theater reference systems.

What areas do you serve?

We serve Kent, Tacoma, Gig Harbor, Federal Way, Auburn, Puyallup, Sumner, Bonney Lake, Covington, Maple Valley, University Place, Tehaleh, and the greater South Sound region of Washington State.
