MENU CONTACT About EDG Founded in 1987 by Bob Gullo, President, and Chief Creative Officer. Gullo approached the dawning of the home entertainment/smart-home systems era with a unique vision that would set the company apart from the customary retailer turned Home Theater/AV Store, by steering the company on a decisively non-retail, professional design and engineering path. EDG aimed at working with the client’s architects, designers, and builders at the earliest possible stages of a project whenever possible. Ultimately the successful deployment of an EDG installation is a direct reflection of the trust and understanding developed with our clients, and the other professionals involved in the project. While audio/video systems had been the primary focus of the business, 1990 was pivotal in the direction of the company. Gullo saw the need to develop greater expertise about the integration of other electronic technologies into the home, such as lighting control systems, temperature controls, advanced structured wiring, video cameras, pool/ spa controls, telephones and “brains” that could monitor and control all these systems, e.g., the integrated, automated smart house concept. Gullo’s foresight proved correct and in 1997, Gullo spearheaded the technology design of worlds most advanced smart home at a cost of over 1.5MM. According to Gullo, “That project was make or break, for us, we were paving the road, doing things nobody was attempting to do at that time. We not only nailed it, after that project, we had the process, procedure, and knowledge to replicate what we learned and scale it down or up as required.” Experience, Expertise and Innovation What do The Internet, Smartphones, Laptops, GPS, TV Remotes, and the Microwave Oven have in common? Technology.

The devices we use every day have changed. No longer is television programming confined to the living room today. For example, 85 percent of all Americans now watch video online, ranging from short amateur clips to television programming or movies.
