Has anyone used Firedog(Circuit City) or Magnolia (Best Buy) to install a home theater system?

Could you please provide feedback as to the level of service you received using either of the two.

Has anyone used Firedog(Circuit City) or Magnolia (Best Buy) to install a home theater system?
What type of home theater are you looking to install, a dedicated home theater or just hanging a plasma on the wall. These two stores really don't have people that are very experienced in this field. These services just run wires and plug in your system, an easy job to do if you read the manual. Let us know what you are lookin to do or email me and I am sure we can walk you through it. Saving you money and patience.
Reply:Don't use either of them, they are a sorry excuse for installers. Don't go to a frigging electrical contractor or builder either. Go to CEDIA website and they can refer a contractor in your area that will fix you up.





P.S. If you don't know what you are doing then don't do it yourself. It will only cost you more in the end.
Reply:Not advisable the techs are under qualified, you may get lucky. But I advise using a home builder or electrical company that has a specialized division. You may spend more but the specialized electricians they have will be a great asset and the install will be the best possible. The premium price that BB and CC charge is not worth what you get.
Reply:In my opinion both of these stores are overpriced and overrated. Heck, I think BB charges a couple hundred bucks just to program your remote.





I personally would look at installing it yourself, or maybe find a buddy who can help. The hardest part is installing the wiring, but other than that it's not all that difficult.
