Hi,
I am in the process of purchasing a home cinema system, I am a complete novice therefore I have been relying on the internet for advice!
The system will be placed in the right side of the attached layout image, it will be part of a TV feature wall.
I have reached out to a popular custom installer, they came out to survey my house and recommended in-wall speakers, and they have now provided me with a quote (shown below).
My main question is around the cost of the cables and interconnects, they come in at over £800 - is this common for a home cinema install? All the cables are a fairly short distance from the TV.
Furthermore, the quote does not include the price they charge to install all of the below mentioned products, that's still to be added on.
As a novice to home cinema, is this reasonable pricing or excessive?
I am not sure about the speakers they have recommended, this will most likely change (especially the sub) but just want to know if this is the prices I should generally expect if I want a home cinema system custom installed.
