What if I told you that your run-of-the-mill surround sound system is in desperate need of an upgrade—scratch that—a million-dollar upgrade? Today, homeowners are demanding that their residential music and visual home entertainment systems rival that of live music performances, symphonies and commercial cinemas.
LMC Home Entertainment has been leading this charge in the Valley for almost 30 years. Their residential entertainment systems are highly customizable and feature premium audio equipment from partners such as Burmester, Dan D’Agostino Master Audio Systems, Sonus faber, Wilson Audio, and numerous other premier American and European brands. LMC’s Scottsdale showroom, approximately 10,000 square feet, displays over $10 million in equipment to encourage customers to fully immerse themselves in LMC’s precision-engineered sound systems.

Like purchasing any luxury product, buying a customized audio system is an investment. From the speakers’ cabinetry to the cutting-edge technology, everything enhances the listening experience.
“With a high-end manufacturer, the life expectancy of a product is several years, not months, as is a more mass-market product,” Mike Ware, co-founder and president of LMC Home Entertainment, says. “They build them to an extremely high degree, and they are built to last, both physically and from a technological standpoint. Many of our products can be upgraded should a new technology arrive. So the customer doesn’t just take their product, throw it in the trash and buy a new one. They literally get their investment upgraded.”
For Ware, the technical mastery behind these luxury audio systems only tells half the story. The other half lies in the experience itself: the unmistakable sense of awe when someone encounters premium acoustics for the very first time— whether in a fully integrated speaker system in their living room or in the LMC showroom.
“There is an art and a science. They both have to merge to get exceptional sound. You can look at two amplifiers that may, on paper, measure identically. They sound vastly different because, as advanced as we are, as much as we know, there are things we don’t know. There are distortions, little sonic effects that we do not even know how to measure,” Ware explains. “And in the end, no matter what the specs say, the final judgments are the two things attached to the side of your head: your ears.”
In the end, whether a customer is looking to purchase $10,000 worth of audio equipment or $1 million, LMC has created a brand people trust: one built on ingenuity, creativity and unparalleled craftsmanship.
“It’s just like anything else, from cars to watches to luxury homes,” Ware notes. “The sky is the limit.”
