Home Automation
Imagine being on a vacation when it is 115 degrees in the Valley, and you realize you left your thermostat on 68 degrees. Wouldn’t it be great to jump on the internet and easily change to an “Away Mode,” where your thermostat adjusts, your lights turn off (with the exception of a few by the windows that go on and off throughout the evening so that is appears that you’re in your house), and if someone approaches your front door the system sends you a photo of them to your e-mail.
Or, if you are in your house, imagine being able to start your favorite music play list, dim the lights, set the temperature and lock up the house, all with a touch of a button. We can customize your needs and make it easy for you to make changes down the road.

Home Automation
So what does this actually mean? Most often when your family sits down to enjoy a movie, it takes at least three or four remotes to actually get the movie playing. Then after the movie finally begins, you have to get up and turn off or dim the lights. With Control4 home automation, you only need one remote to do all of that. With a simple press of a button, all of the devices involved (TV or projector, Blu-ray player, media player, receiver) will all set themselves to the correct inputs and your lights will automatically dim to your desired level.

Home Theater
Control4 home automation allows you to integrate the products and services you already use into one seamless, awe-inspiring experience. You could simply press the “Watch” button on your Control4 remote and grab your snacks. Your Control4 system can turn on all of your devices and set them to the correct inputs, automatically. It even has the ability to automatically dim the lights for you so you don’t have to get up to turn them off and stumble through a dark room on your way back to the couch. And if you start to feel a draft, you can adjust your thermostat right from the couch.
Lighting Control
Lighting plays a critical role in creating an inspiring and beautiful room—not to mention, a safe and comfortable environment. Control4 offers a full range of smart lighting products that let you control virtually any lighting devices – large or small, interior or exterior, CFL or LED – exactly the way you choose. Control4 technology enables you to integrate your lights with music, shades, locks, climate control and video—so that with just one touch, you can turn all the lights on or off, set the scene for bedtime or a dinner party, manage your energy use, or make sure that your home is safe and secure. You can even use your smartphone, tablet, or a PC with the Control4 app to manage your lighting from virtually anywhere in the world for the ultimate in convenience and control.

"By far the best high-end home theater company in Newport Beach. It's amazing to see how they can transform your audio/video experience and give you the right product for what you need."
William Cain
Audio Concepts is the best! I tried several digital vendors in the past and now I have my "go to" guys. They were knowledgeable, on time, professional, and reasonably priced. Strongly recommend you give them a call for your smart home, theater, security or other technology needs.
Rachel Svoboda
It makes me sad that there are so few of these shops left. Scott & Steve are both terrific guys that patiently answered all my questions. While they both know much much more than I do on the topic of home audio, not once did I feel like that. It was like 3 old friends discussing their hobby. I ended up getting a fantastic deal on a current Mcintosh piece.
Mike Lafirst
Technicians are super friendly and thorough. Really enjoy the follow up that I receive since installing my Control4 system in 2016.

Thanks to Desert Valley for always being there if ever an issue comes up with our AV System. We always get prompt service and they are always determined to get the issue solved to our satisfaction. Can't say enough good things about Justin and his employees. Thanks to Jen for going above and beyond for getting us scheduled with Thomas ASAP just recently to have a battery fixed with our alarm system.
James Staffa
I hired Desert Valley Audio to set up surround sound and multiple rooms of TV & Audio. Seth was the superintendent on the job, unfortunately I did not get the other gentleman's name. They did an outstanding job! Seth is super knowledgeable, a hard worker and a pleasure to be around. Thank you for having such great employees!
Baron Adelmann
Thank you DVAV for making our home perfect for entertaining! Adam and Jacob who completed the initial installation treated our needs and home with TLC, as if our home were their own. Jeff and Alan completed upgrade to a larger screen TV and update installations quickly and professionally.
Bob Abbott
Our experience from beginning to end was first rate, made even more special by the fact that substantially all the work was done without us being on hand. We have always been big fans on doing business locally with independent owned businesses and our trust was amply rewarded with Desert Audio.
Wayne Townsend
I had this place install cameras at my two offices and home. They did great work and the price was reasonable. Their technician, Jonathan, was professional and easy to work with. I highly recommend this place and Jonathan.
Steve Vogt
Desert Valley came in really quickly to help fix our system and did a great job diagnosing the situation. We have come to the conclusion that our ISP needs to do some repairs on the system. Thank you Desert Valley! This is my correction to an incorrect review I have previously made.
Tyler Bugeaud
Justin has done it all for me. My office, my homes and has even helped out our other business. I found him in Stone Creek Furniture doing a Media Wall and the relationship has blossomed into a great friend who knows AV! Great guy and his wife and staff are amazing. Definitely could rate them more than 5stars if it were allowed.
Ryan Jones
Dennis & Justin just installed a new TV for us. Another excellent job. Always helpful and efficient. Can't say enough about how good these guys are! Justin and Jon make a great team. They were very efficient, didn't oversell, delivered on everything they proposed and have the nicest group of folks working for them.
Martin Simonetti
I hired Desert Valley Audio Video to upgrade my home entertainment system here in Scottsdale. The reviews are 100% correct. The sales, knowledge, installation, and price we're excellent. The follow up phone call to see if everything was alright, or if I had any questions was a nice touch!
J. Busch
I work for a Advertising Agency called Colling Media and we had them do some commercial AV work. These guys were fantastic and did a spectacular job. Dennis and Justin were the guys that did our install work and we couldn't be happier with it. Highly recommended.

Very professional and knowledgeable staff. Will definitely use again for all my audio needs!

Dr. Joseph Palermo
We took a long time to decide which A/V company to hire. We talked to three different companies and rated them good, better, best. Desert Valley A/V came out as the best, so we decided to pull the trigger. From the beginning, Justin and team were very professional and answered my multitude of questions. I would highly recommend Desert Valley to any of my friends and family.
Zack Romero
These guys are great. Super friendly and super efficient. Have used them more than once and will use them again for future needs. Highly recommended!
Jared Kavlie
I had to get the COX minibox installed to my bedroom TV. Jeff from Desert Valley AV came out yesterday and performed all the work and did an excellent job. The new box required a software update and some trouble shooting that he did a superb job with getting everything to work. In addition he helped with some questions on Control 4.
