“I have had the pleasure of knowing and working with Norm Varney for more than a decade. Norm’s talent, expertise and dedication has been a tremendous help to me through the years. He helped us develop our reference audio system, the rooms in our store, and has worked with us on numerous music system and home theater installations where the client demanded the best. Norm is a true professional. I highly recommend Norm and A/V RoomService.”

“AV RoomService dramatically improved the performance of our DALI demo room at Rocky Mountain Audio Fest, 2007. Initially, we had problems with mid-bass frequencies (60 Hz to 90 Hz) loading off the side-walls on the first reflection. The “slapping” sound created a room resonance and an unpleasant din in the room. Upon request, Norman Varney of AV RoomService analyzed and confirmed the problem with his computerized feed-back system. He then provided two acoustically-treated panels placed at a slight angle to the first reflection on the side-walls. The result was immediate and dramatic. The “din” disappeared, and clean, precise music emerged. Mid-bass no longer reflected into the room. We now had a room with sound to be proud of. The music was tight, with controlled bass extension and excellent definition. Perfect! I heartily recommend AV RoomService to anyone seeking to optimize sonic performance in their home. Norman’s analysis and resolution of sonic imbalance is surprisingly quick and effective.”

“Good things are happening here. The room’s sound changed even more dramatically than you suggested it would, and for the better. More snap, more liveliness, more of the stuff I was looking for. I’ve been living with it and listening and evaluating components and I’m not only enjoying the sound more, my ability to discern differences between components under review has increased too.”
