Control more with less when you unify your TV and home theater setup through a Harmony remote setup. Our professional installer will configure your learning remote to control up to eight of your devices and help you customize up to six different actions, such as events, scenes, automations and more. We’ll connect your remote to your existing home network and, if included, connect the remote’s smart hub or base station. If applicable, we can also help you set up your remote’s companion mobile app. Finally, we’ll review everything we set up and make sure you know how to use it so we leave you in full control. Once we’re done, we’ll ensure the workspace is clean and remove any packaging that’s no longer needed. Best Buy’s home theater services are backed by a 90-day limited workmanship warranty.

We’ll do the heavy lifting and save you time and hassle. Enjoy the convenience of our installers quickly and professionally mounting your TV to the wall or a piece of compatible furniture, giving it a clean look without all the cables. We can make recommendations on placement for the best viewing experience of your TV. For properly-rated, non-powered cables, we'll conceal them within the wall in a single stud bay or on the wall’s surface. If we're extending power cables, we’ll make sure an approved extension kit, which is sold separately, meets your desired mounting height requirements. Then, we’ll install the outlet portion of the kit inside the drywall, run the in-wall-rated jumper cable inside the single wall stud bay and install the receptacle portion of the kit near an existing power outlet. Then, we’ll power on the TV to ensure it powers on and works properly. Finally, we’ll ensure all wires and cables are neatly dressed, and the workspace is clean when we finish.
