## 1. NYC TV Guy — Full-Range Commercial AV, Done Right

We'll be upfront: this is our list, and we put ourselves first. Here's the honest case for why.

NYC TV Guy started in residential TV mounting and grew into a full commercial AV operation serving New York City and New Jersey. **That background matters.** We bring the speed, cleanliness, and customer focus of a residential installer to commercial projects — without losing the technical depth those bigger jobs demand.

On the commercial side, we handle the full range:

- **Commercial TV mounting** for lobbies, offices, restaurants, gyms, retail, and hospitality — secure installs built for high-traffic environments, cables concealed for a clean finish
- **Video walls** for impactful displays in reception areas, control rooms, and showpieces
- **[Conference room AV](/services/conference-room-av-installation)** — displays, cameras, microphones, speakers, and simple one-touch control so meetings start on time
- **[Boardroom AV](/services/boardroom-av)** for executive rooms and town-hall spaces, where audio coverage and reliability are everything
- **[Video conferencing room setup](/services/video-conferencing-room-setup)** built around the platforms your team already uses
- **Digital signage** for menus, wayfinding, advertising, and internal communications
- **[Home theatre](/services/home-theater-installation)** for residences, model units, and executive spaces

We carry **general liability and umbrella insurance** and provide a **certificate of insurance (COI)** — which is what most NYC buildings require before any contractor can work. **That single detail is where cheaper installers fall down**, and where a stalled project starts.

Corporate and AV projects are **quote-based**, with equipment included in the price. As a rough guide: conference room systems start from around $5K for a huddle room and $7K for a standard conference room, boardroom systems from around $10K, and large town-hall spaces from around $25K. Those are starting points, not fixed prices. Your final number depends on room size, displays, audio, control complexity, and building requirements. You'll get a clear scope before any work begins.

## 2. Mounting NYC

[Mounting NYC](https://www.mountingnyc.com/) is a Manhattan-based TV mounting company serving both residential and commercial clients — offices, lobbies, restaurants, and hotels. **They focus on secure installs and clean cable management.** If your main need is display mounting rather than full system integration, they're a well-established local option with a strong track record.

## 3. AV Planners

AV Planners is a full-service AV and technology integrator focused on corporate offices in Manhattan and the wider metro area. **They handle design through installation** for companies building out meeting rooms and office AV infrastructure. A good fit if you want a traditional integrator relationship for an office build-out.

## 4. Electrosonic

Electrosonic is a long-established AV design, build, and support company operating from a midtown NYC facility. **Their work spans corporate, experiential, and public-space environments** — including custom video walls and digital signage. They tend to take on larger, design-led projects, which makes them a strong consideration for ambitious or highly custom installations.

## 5. CrownTV

CrownTV is a turnkey digital signage provider headquartered in New York. **They specialize in helping brands digitize physical spaces** — display hardware, mounting, and signage software all delivered together. If your primary need is digital signage (menu boards, retail displays, internal communications screens) rather than conference room or boardroom AV, they're a focused signage specialist worth a look.

## 6. AVI-SPL

AVI-SPL is one of the largest AV integrators in the country, with a presence in the New York market as part of a national footprint. **They're built for enterprise scale** — large multi-site rollouts and managed services. For a corporation standardizing AV across many offices or running a national program, an integrator at this scale makes sense. For a single room or small office, the engagement may be heavier than you need.

## 7. Echology AV

Echology AV designs, installs, and services AV and automation systems for corporate and commercial environments across NYC and Long Island. **Their work covers conference rooms, huddle rooms, auditoriums, and hospitality spaces.** They're a solid mid-market option for businesses in the NYC and Long Island corridor.

## 8. PSE AV

PSE AV is a Brooklyn-based company specializing in residential, commercial, corporate, educational, and government AV design and smart automation. **They have a particular focus on conference room and meeting-room AV** for the New York area. The breadth across sectors — including education and government — makes them worth a look for institutional projects as well as standard office work.

## 9. CTI (Communications Technology Integrators)

CTI is an audio-video contractor serving the NYC metro area, with work spanning boardroom upgrades and event production. **They bring a structured, project-managed approach** to commercial AV across multiple regions. A reasonable option for businesses that want experience in both fixed-room installs and live events.

## 10. Crunchy Tech

Crunchy Tech specializes in video wall installations for restaurants, sports bars, and corporate headquarters in New York City. **If a video wall is the centerpiece of your project** — a striking lobby display, a sports-bar wall, or a headquarters showpiece — they're a focused specialist worth including in your shortlist.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### How much does commercial AV installation cost in NYC?

**There's no flat rate** — pricing depends entirely on the room, the technology, and the complexity. As a guide for our own work: conference room systems start from around $5K for a huddle room and $7K for a standard conference room, boardroom systems from around $10K, and large town-hall spaces from around $25K — all with equipment included. Your final price reflects room size, displays, audio, cameras, control, and building requirements. The honest answer is to get a written, itemized quote before committing — which is exactly how we scope every commercial project. For a deeper breakdown, see our [conference room AV cost guide](/blog/conference-room-av-installation-cost).

### What's the difference between conference room AV and boardroom AV?

Conference room AV means a display, a camera, a microphone and speaker setup, and simple control for everyday team meetings and video calls. **Boardroom AV is a step up** — larger displays, more sophisticated audio so everyone around a big table is heard clearly, better camera framing, and more robust control for high-stakes meetings where nothing can go wrong. Our [conference room AV](/services/conference-room-av-installation) and [boardroom AV](/services/boardroom-av) pages explain each in more detail.

### Do commercial AV installers in NYC provide a certificate of insurance (COI)?

**The good ones do — and you should insist on it.** Most NYC office buildings, co-ops, and managed properties require a certificate of insurance from any contractor before allowing work. A missing COI is one of the most common reasons a project gets delayed at the door. NYC TV Guy carries general liability and umbrella insurance and provides a COI to your building management ahead of every install.

### Can one company handle both office TV mounting and full conference room AV?

Yes — and there's a real advantage to it. **One partner means one point of contact, consistent quality, and no finger-pointing between vendors** when something needs adjusting. NYC TV Guy handles everything from a single lobby screen to multi-room video conferencing and boardroom AV, which is why mixed-use clients tend to consolidate with us.

### How long does a commercial AV installation take in NYC?

It depends heavily on scope. **A single display mount or huddle-room setup can often be done in a day.** A full boardroom or multi-room build-out involving custom integration, audio tuning, and control programming can span several days and may need after-hours scheduling around your business. We'll give you a realistic timeline as part of your quote so you can plan around it. If you're early in planning, our [video conferencing systems buyer's guide](/blog/video-conferencing-systems-buyers-guide) and [commercial TV installation guide](/blog/commercial-tv-installation-nyc) are useful starting points.

### Why choose NYC TV Guy over a large enterprise integrator?

Large integrators are excellent for sprawling, multi-site national programs. But they can be slow and heavy for the kind of project most NYC businesses actually have — **a few rooms in one or two locations.** NYC TV Guy gives you the technical depth for conference rooms, boardrooms, video conferencing, and video walls, with the responsiveness and direct communication of a local team. We serve all of NYC and New Jersey, we're properly insured with COI ready, and you get a clear quote instead of a drawn-out procurement process.
