   I’ve been blown away by the creativity, focus and delivery from the big picture and highly recommend their service. After being recommended by a friend, and after receiving a underwhelming quote from another high-end cinema room provider, I was delighted with TBP’s approach to my project. This was a big investment for me, which I wanted to get right and have the suitable wow factor - and I needed someone to help me through the entire process. At the outset, Ciaran and I discussed the brief - with his clear and honest advice on budget, high-level options available and overall feeling and fit for the room for our old (listed) house. They took that brief and delivered renders which absolutely hit the spot - and I was hooked !!! The renders were very detailed and really made the vision come to life. Once we agreed the overall direction, the big picture project managed the lot for me. From the numerous detailed plans and instruction for our builders, to specifications and supply of automated blinds & curtains, sofas, flooring and rugs, lights, doors, cupboards for beer, dart boards, desk area, and everything in between. The automation of the room (and side project for a gym) with control 4, plus the projector, 15 speaker system and other ‘toys’ give fantastic sound and picture. It integrates brilliant with my Apple TV and sky systems. We also built in a laser oche for the darts, and karaoke and dj systems. Overall, I’m very grateful to Ciaran and the big picture for all the work done. My family and I love to spend the evening watching anything from Top Gun through to Celebrity Traitors! I highly recommend the big picture if you would like a high-end cinema and sound system which brings a smile to your face!

   Ciaran is an expert! Free of charge, he helped me to resolve an issue with our home cinema set up, remotely, even though I wasn’t his customer. He understood the problem, went over and above to help me to fix the issue, which saved me considerable time & expense. It’s now operational again and I have a better understanding of how everything works. I would highly recommend Ciaran!

   We now have a beautifully designed, totally bespoke cinema room in a relatively small room in our home. Quality of picture and sound are excellent, lighting, blinds and drapes control works perfectly. We received excellent advice from Ciaron at the Big picture on how to achieve the best possible outcome from the project and we are very happy with the outcome.

   After an initial successful consultation with another firm, I reached out to Ciaran and The Big Picture for a second opinion on our dream cinema room at home. Ciaran’s passion and dedication convinced me that he was the right person to bring my vision to life. He immediately started liaising with suppliers to source custom chairs for the room and provided inspiring ideas to enhance it. The project expanded into a full home automation endeavor, including lighting for the entire home and the cinema room. We’re thrilled with the mind-blowing cinema room that sets an unbelievably high standard of performance. Ciaran’s technical expertise and commitment to customer support after installation make The Big Picture an excellent choice for home automation projects.

   We have just completed a living room/ media/cinema room conversion with Ciaran from The Big Picture ….. the advice, time, work and effort from Ciaran during the entire project has been excellent …. from the first visit when we gave him the brief for what we wanted to achieve to the actual build itself and beyond …. Ciaran has been hands on every step of the way ….. the quality of the tech he recommended and installed was top notch and he always had our overall budget in mind ….. the passion with which Ciaran managed the build and also our expectations for what we could achieve was superb ….. Ciaran is always on hand for any queries or questions and is always quick to respond ….. overall the experience with Ciaran and his team at The Big Picture has been excellent …. the audiovisual performance delivered by his recommended setup (which includes components from the likes of Monitor Audio, Denon, Sony) truly transforms a normal functioning family living room into a home theatre experience literally at the touch of a button thanks to the Control 4 system that he also installed for us …… delivering on our brief fully Ciaran has created a living room / home theatre that is a sanctuary for me and my love of film that at the touch of a button can return to a normal living room and central hub for family living ….. It's a testament to what can be achieved when high-quality components and expert advice and installation come together to create something special ….. I would highly recommend Ciaran and The Big Picture

   Award Worthy Cinema! I contact Ciaran from The Big Picture just after the start of the pandemic when it was a difficult time to do anything for any of us. I had very little idea of what I wanted and even less idea about the space I was creating to house a cinema. I sent him some photos of what I thought would be an identical space and he worked a quote out based on that and based on me wanting something quite special. The quote gave me a number of options from both the lower and higher ends of the home cinema possibilities. We had a lot of hurdles to work through during the process with building materials and complications and Ciaran worked diligently on the phone with my builders to ensure what he envisioned could work with what they were building, and vice versa. Then there were silly issues on equipment that were prevalent in all of these industries at the time and again Ciaran keep me updated at all times and even copied me into emails to and from suppliers to ensure all was very transparent in what was a difficult world at the time. The first time I listened to some music on the wisdom audio speakers in the room, combined with Ciaran’s audio treatment I was almost in tears. The sheer purity of the sound at all levels evoked an unexpected emotional response that I’d never experienced before. The room wasn’t even finished! Several months later from enquiry to completion it was finally time to sit and watch our first movies. My Dad was dying and we had him around to watch the greatest showman. He was in awe and I’ll never forgot watching that film in there with him, the image on the screen, the sound all around us and the total immersion he and all of us felt while we watched it. Controls wise the room is simple to operate for image, sound and lighting, the seating recommended by Ciaran is very comfortable and the room…. Well, it just works as one unit. Every time I go in there continue to be blown away by the sound, the image and the amazing quality of the whole set up. I never expected to feel an emotional reaction but the moment you walk into the room you feel that it’s different, then the film comes on or the music plays and you are transported into another realm of reality where it’s just you and the music/film and nothing else. It is quite simply, incredible. Thank you Ciaran for working with me and creating this space in our home. It is well worth the finals of the Cedia awards that it has reached and in my books it’s definitely the winner! Well done!

   I first used the services of The Big Picture in 2006 and working on a relatively small budget, Ciaran designed a fantastic audio visual experience way beyond anything I thought possible. Over time, I realised that technology was leaving me behind and what was great in 2006 was no longer great now. I contacted Ciaran and options relative to my specific requests were discussed and considered. The Big Picture have now installed a 4K UHD projector, giving stunningly sharp visual images and the new multi-room wireless audio system is a pleasure to own. Ciaran was also proactive in offering advice on decor and colour schemes for the cinema room, which was taken onboard and is now very much appreciated. Ciaran is passionate in his work and has a wealth of knowledge in his field. On both occasions using The Big Picture over a 16 year period, they have provided exceptional value for money and I would recommend them without hesitation. Dave Hathaway Sutton Coldfield
