I will soon purchase a Pioneer 5070 plasma. I want a professional to mount it on my wall as well as mounting my home theater speakers with concealed writing. Can you share your experiences with professional installers? Have you ever used Firedog with Circuit City or BB installers? BTW, I live in Boston. I appreciate any information on the topic. Thanks.

I felt that for what I wanted to do (everything in an exterior wall, vaulted ceiling, tv on a fully articulating mount, and electrical to code*) it was more than I wanted to pay. So I ended up doing it myself. My father had his done by Tweeter; They did a good job and when he had trouble, they came out and fixed it and taught him how to operate everything. He did not have it wall mounted though, just speaker cables through the walls.

As to being up to code, there are numerous posts on these forums that talk about installers / stores that seem to just pull cables through walls w/o any regard to electrical code.
