$0.00 About Us We Are Obsessed With Home Theaters Since 1996, AV Science has lived and breathed all things home theater. We are a custom audio/video retailer serving both residential and commercial clients. Our team of experts is not only dedicated to helping clients create the perfect home theater, but they are also true home theater enthusiasts. Our greatest joy comes from unveiling a client’s new system and showing them how it works. Dedicated Customer Service We walk with our clients throughout the process, providing guidance and peace of mind along the way. And our dedicated customer service doesn’t end after the sale. Our client relationships continue with unwavering service and support. We love our clients We love everything A/V. Whether working with a family of five or a business owner with five restaurants, we embrace the challenge of providing the right solutions for our clients’ unique situations. Better yet, we always suggest the products that best meet the needs of the client – not necessarily the most expensive or extensive equipment.

Craig Peer SALES REPRESENTATIVE Craig caught the home theater bug in 2002, and he's been building and improving his system ever since. AVS clients benefit from his passion for creating the ideal home theater for their needs - he loves showing people how affordable a system can be.

Laurie Elkin PRESIDENT Numbers are Laurie's first love. Her career at AV Science began in 2003 when she became its bookkeeper. Nine years later, she bought the company. Her numbers obsession continues today, but she is equally passionate about the dedicated team she has built. Since the beginning, Laurie has fostered a working environment of open communication and respect, which she feels has led to much of AVScience's success. Away from work, Laurie is an avid traveler who enjoys reading fictional thrillers, cooking and painting with watercolors. Marc Elkin VICE PRESIDENT With over 40 years of audio/video experience, Marc has been applying his special set of skills to his work at AV Science since 2012. Having experienced the evolution of home theater from CRT projectors to laser projectors and from stereo sound to Dolby Atmos, Marc is an invaluable part of the team. When not designing or programming a new system, Marc can be found traveling with his wife or indulging in some Trader Joe’s Coffee Bean Blast Ice Cream.
