^^^^^ these are true words.... Obviously shading and lighting are huge areas of growth....but another is one that got us here in the first place...better audio....
So many of us (and I was one of the worst offenders) have installed the highest profit cheap crap speakers we could....we drove them with whatever cheap amp was in our program....it was good enough....until it started not to be....the smart speakers and table top radios started sounding almost as good....
Go back to your roots....find an area or two or three in the house that need a great audio experience...And for gods sake find real speakers from a real speaker company ....educate your customer on High-Rez...since moving over to the rep side I have fallen in love with music again....your customers can too
And how many times have you updated firmware in a speaker?
