Speakers that disappear
In-ceiling and in-wall speakers sit flush and paint to match. Invisible speakers vanish behind plaster. The layout is engineered for the acoustics of each room, not just where the joists happen to be.
Whole-home audio systems for Dallas-Fort Worth homes.
Music in every room, from speakers you never see. One app picks the song, the rooms and the volume, and the sound follows you from the kitchen to the patio.
// Whole-Home Audio
Whole-home audio integration for Dallas smart homes.
A whole-home audio system puts speakers in the rooms you actually live in and connects them to one central system, so the same playlist can play everywhere or every room can play its own. We design the speaker layout for open-concept Texas floor plans, hide the equipment, wire the house for reliability and put the whole system in one app, alongside the lighting, shades and everything else we install.
Every room is a zone
A zone is a room, or a group of rooms, with its own source and volume. The kitchen can play a podcast while the patio plays the game and the whole house joins in for a party, all from the same app.
Wired for reliability
High-resolution streaming needs bandwidth. We hardwire the speakers and the sources, and build the network to carry it, so the music never drops out halfway through dinner.
// What we design and install
How a whole-home audio system works, room by room.
01
One system, every room: how whole-home audio works
A whole-home audio system is not a speaker in every room that you control separately. It is one system: the sources (streaming, TV audio, your turntable) live in a central rack, amplifiers send the music through wires to speakers in each room, and a controller decides which room plays what. The music comes from the ceiling and the walls, not from a box on the shelf, so the room stays clean and the sound stays even wherever you stand.
- Sources and amplifiers in one hidden rack
- Wired speakers in every room you want music
- Any source in any room, or the same song everywhere
02
Architectural and invisible speakers
In-ceiling and in-wall speakers sit flush with the surface and their grilles paint to match, so a living room, a kitchen or a primary bath has full sound with nothing to look at. Where even a grille is too much, invisible speakers are plastered into the wall and disappear completely. Hidden subwoofers add depth without a cabinet in the corner. We specify Sonance architectural speakers and lay them out room by room for even coverage.
- In-ceiling and in-wall speakers with paintable grilles
- Invisible speakers plastered into the wall
- Hidden subwoofers for depth without a cabinet
03
The Savant app: music, rooms and volume in one place
This is the screen most people have never seen: on the touch panel and in the app, one view lists your rooms, your music services and your volumes together. Pick Spotify, Pandora, Deezer or TIDAL, the TV audio or the turntable, choose the rooms, and the music starts. Add the patio with one tap, group the whole house for a party, or set a favourite on a keypad so dinner music starts with the dining lights. Voice control through Josh.ai, Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant runs the same rooms.
- Streaming services, TV audio and turntable as sources
- Rooms grouped or independent from the same screen
- Keypad favourites and audio scenes tied to lighting
04
Hidden equipment and the wired backbone
Nothing lives in the living room. The amplifiers, streamers and network gear sit in a ventilated rack in a closet or the utility room, and every speaker is wired back to it. Wired audio does not depend on Wi-Fi, so it does not drop out, and a rack we can reach means service and updates without opening a wall. The network that carries the streaming is designed as part of the same project.
- Amplifiers, streamers and network in one rack
- Every speaker hardwired back to the rack
- Built on a network designed for streaming
05
Outdoor audio for Texas patios and pools
Weather-resistant speakers built for Texas heat, humidity and storms, laid out for even coverage so no corner of the patio is loud and no corner is quiet. Ceiling speakers under the covered patio, landscape speakers and buried subwoofers around the pool, all on the same app and the same scenes as the rooms inside.
- Covered-patio, landscape and pool speakers
- Even coverage without the volume war
- Same app, same scenes as indoors
// Proof
Designed for the room, hidden in the architecture.
We work alongside interior designers and builders during the early design phase, so wiring runs behind walls and speaker positions and cabinetry concealment are planned before construction finishes. The result is sound that fills the room, or the patio, from hardware nobody notices.

These guys are amazing! Do yourself a favor and hire them; you won't regret it. They know their stuff and take the time to explain what they do and why. Incredibly responsive too. Thank you, Johann and the team!
Adrianne Cramer, Google review - ★★★★★
WH Tech is the best! There are so many specialists in home automation, it's hard to know who to trust. These guys were communicative, punctual, had transparent pricing, and offered advice every step of the way.

What is a whole-home audio system?
One central system that sends music to speakers in every room you choose. The sources and amplifiers live in a hidden rack, the speakers sit in the ceilings and walls, and one app decides which room plays what and how loud. It replaces a collection of portable speakers with something built into the house.
Can each room play something different?
Yes. Every room, or group of rooms, is a zone with its own source and volume. The kitchen can play a podcast while the patio plays the game, and the whole house can be grouped for a party from the same screen.
How do you hide audio gear without affecting the sound quality of the room?
We use architectural speakers that sit completely flush with your walls or ceiling, and invisible speakers where even a grille is too much. Our engineering team designs the speaker layout to suit the acoustics of each room, delivering rich sound from hardware you cannot point to.
Can I control my multi-room music and outdoor media from the same system?
Yes. We build centralized control systems so you are not juggling multiple apps on your phone. Indoor music and backyard speakers are managed from the Savant app, the keypads and voice, and outdoor zones join the same scenes as the rooms inside.
Will a whole-home audio system overload my existing home network?
Streaming high-resolution audio requires substantial bandwidth. We design and install a robust home network foundation to handle heavy data traffic and use hardwired connections whenever possible, so your music never drops.
How early should we plan for audio during a renovation or new build?
Collaborating during the early design phase is ideal. Working alongside your interior designers and builders lets us run wiring behind walls and pre-plan custom cabinetry concealment before construction finishes.
Can whole-home audio be added to a finished home?
Often, yes. We survey the home, find routes for wiring, choose speaker types that suit the existing walls and ceilings, and tell you honestly what is possible without disruption.
// Across Dallas-Fort Worth
Whole-home audio installation across Dallas-Fort Worth, from Frisco to Highland Park.
The best audio distribution comes from expert system design and centralized control, not from the number of speakers. As a home audio company based in Allen, we design and install whole-home audio across Dallas-Fort Worth, whether that is an open-concept new build in Frisco, Prosper or McKinney, a renovation in Plano or Southlake, or an estate in Highland Park or University Park.
We work alongside your builder and interior designer during the design phase, so wiring runs behind walls and speaker positions are planned before the drywall goes up. We are a Savant Elite Ambassador and an HTA Certified integrator at the Luxury tier, and after the installation our team remains available for support, updates and adjustments.
