We purchased a new property which was ""pre-wired"" by All-Safe Security for an alarm system and a 5.1 surround sound system. The alarm system seems fine (though we do not plan to pay for monitoring), but we tried to have them install speakers to take advantage of the pre-wiring, and it was a nightmare.\r

Besides being almost impossible to contact (phone goes to a secretary who takes your name, but then never has anyone call back), they were unprofessional in almost every way possible. They failed to show up for appointments almost 10 times (w/o calling of course), took days to respond to voicemails, and didn't seem interested whatsoever in working with me. It took us over 2 months to get about 3 hours of work ""done"".\r

The workman brought out incorrect speakers on 3 different occasions, requiring additional delays since they don't seem to keep any inventory and we had to wait on new speakers to be ordered. When they finally (partially) installed a subwoofer, it was an incorrect part and one that could not possibly work with any standard 5.1 surround sound system. I had to do the research myself (via internet and calling other speaker dealers) in order to confirm the issue. All-Safe didn't even KNOW it couldn't work, though they eventually ""checked it out"" themselves and concurred. I really don't think they know what they're doing.\r

I had another audio guy come take a look at the situation, and he was aghast at the quality of speaker wire used in the pre-wiring. Given how longs the speaker wires are, there will be significant interference.\r

Do yourself a favor and don't deal with All-Safe. Even if your property has some work by them, just pick someone else at random because they couldn't be much worse.
Cons: Unresponsive, not knowledgable
