Columbia, Missouri is one of the most dynamic and forward-thinking cities in the Midwest. Home to the University of Missouri, Stephens College, and Columbia College, the city blends academic energy with a thriving business community and fast-growing residential neighborhoods. As Columbia continues to expand from the South Providence corridor to the new developments near I-70 demand for professionally installed audio, video, security, and smart home technology has never been stronger.

The Entertainer is proud to serve Columbia and all of Boone County, bringing the same level of expertise and craftsmanship we are known for throughout mid-Missouri to Mizzou's home city. Whether you are building a new home near the Research Park, outfitting a restaurant on Broadway, or upgrading a historic house in Old Southwest Columbia, our team is ready to design and install a solution built around your lifestyle.

Home Theater & Multimedia Entertainment in Columbia

Columbia's homeowners have developed a taste for high-end living, and a professionally designed home theater is the centerpiece of the modern home. Our team designs and installs custom home cinema rooms, media rooms, and whole-home entertainment systems for residences across Columbia from the established neighborhoods of West Worley and Old Southwest to the newer developments near Brown Station Road and Waco Road.

We work with the finest brands in the industry including Sony 4K laser projectors, OLED televisions from LG and Samsung, Klipsch and Sonance speaker systems, and Epson home cinema projectors to create a viewing experience that rivals any commercial theater. Every system is calibrated to your room's acoustics and your personal preferences, ensuring that movie night, game day, or binge-watching your favorite series sounds and looks exactly as it should.

For MU alumni and Mizzou sports fans, we can build a dedicated viewing room complete with a large-format display, surround sound, and a control system that makes switching between game-day sources effortless.

Whole-Home Audio for Columbia Residences

Music should follow you through your home from the kitchen to the back deck, from the master bedroom to the workshop. Our distributed audio systems use industry-leading platforms like Sonos to stream any song, podcast, or radio station to any room in your home, independently or all at once.

For Columbia's older homes especially the beautiful craftsman and Victorian-era houses in historic downtown neighborhoods we specialize in discreet in-wall and in-ceiling speaker installations that preserve your home's character while delivering extraordinary sound. No visible wiring, no compromised aesthetics, just beautiful music everywhere you want it.

Smart Home Automation for Columbia

The university-educated families and professionals who call Columbia home expect technology that works intuitively and reliably. Our smart home automation solutions built on platforms like Control4, RTI, and Savant unify your home's lighting, climate, audio, video, security, and motorized shades into a single, elegant system you control from your smartphone, a dedicated touchpad, or by voice.

Imagine pulling into your driveway and having your outdoor lights illuminate automatically, your front door unlock, your thermostat adjust to your preferred temperature, and your favorite playlist begin in the kitchen all without lifting a finger. That is the power of a professionally integrated smart home, and it is exactly what The Entertainer delivers to Columbia homeowners.

We also offer automation solutions for MU graduate students and faculty in Columbia's apartment and condo communities smaller-scale smart systems that add real value to everyday living without requiring a whole-home installation.

Commercial AV for Columbia Businesses

Columbia's commercial landscape is as diverse as its population. From nationally recognized healthcare facilities like MU Health Care and Boone Hospital to the independent restaurants and boutiques that line Broadway and Ninth Street, businesses throughout Columbia rely on professional AV technology to serve customers, train employees, and run efficient operations.

The Entertainer designs and installs:

1. Conference room systems for Columbia's growing number of professional offices, law firms, and insurance companies complete with 4K displays, wireless presentation, and video conferencing integration.
2. Restaurant and bar audio/video systems multi-zone audio, sports-bar TV arrays, and background music systems for establishments along Broadway, Eighth Street, and beyond.
3. Digital signage solutions for retail and healthcare waiting areas throughout Boone County.

Security & Surveillance for Columbia Homes and Businesses

Columbia's growth means more people and more property to protect. Our security and surveillance solutions range from simple doorbell camera installations to comprehensive 24/7 monitored alarm systems for businesses with multiple locations throughout Boone County.

For homeowners, we offer smart lock integration, doorbell cameras, motion-activated exterior lighting, and indoor camera systems all controllable from your smartphone whether you are across town or across the country. For Columbia businesses, we provide access control systems, high-resolution surveillance camera networks, and monitored intrusion detection.

Networking Solutions for Columbia's Connected Community

Whether you are a MU professor streaming video calls from your home office, a family with four kids all streaming simultaneously, or a small business that cannot afford network downtime, Columbia deserves fast and reliable Wi-Fi everywhere.
