Stuff that must go:
Everything labeled Control4. Garbage top to bottom. Is there an automation system out there that doesn't suck?
REL HT/1508 subwoofer. Garbage. Junk. Dead after 8 months. Need something better, similar quality and price ($2k or so). The HT/1508 is pretty large, and this is a large room. Something that lasts longer than 8 months would be a major plus too.
Arcam AVR550. Utter shit. Never buy anything electronic from the brits - fucking morons have never known how to make anything that doesn't just suck ass. Need something equal, that can at least do something other than dolby digital (I blame the installer on that part, but the constant dying and power-cycle required reboots to fix video is annoying as fuck and I definitely blame Arcam for that). I'll find someone that has a clue to do the tuning for the speaker positions.
HDMI over ethernet balun - see below for specs (4k/60, ~30 ft).
Needs to support full HDR 4k. TV is fine - new sony 85" something or another. Fronts, mids, and rears are quality Bowers and Wilkins kit. Wiring seems sane at least, minus the HDMI Balun they totally fucked up (and switched to eARC for some god-unknown reason to try and make work).
