Mission statement: 

Do well by doing good: Do the best job we can at providing great products and service for our customers to create experiences that improve the quality of their lives, enrich the lives of each and every one of our employees, and support our community.

Vision statement: 

Bring the world's finest consumer electronics together in one place – no spin-offs, no gimmicks, no junk – and then find the right people to explain and demo the difference. People who don't push, but inspire instead, because they honestly love what they do. From there, recruit schooled designers and installation experts, professionals far and away superior to typical chain store installers. Set new standards for music-listening, Mobile Entertainment, Home Automation, Lighting Control, Shades, Whole House Audio and, of course, Home Theater. After people, policy: keep pricing competitive, and provide customer service even years after the sale. Earn our customers’ trust, never hide from mistakes, and build on integrity. Give back to the community and always follow the credo "do well by doing good." Last, laugh at ourselves as often as possible – and never put a fake gorilla on the street to wave in customers. Then, hopefully, let word-of-mouth do the rest.
