A deliberate listening position
We plan the relationship between speakers, the listening seat, windows and openings. Room dimensions and equipment placement guide the layout.

Give your system room to breathe
Acoustics with a purpose
Absorption, bass treatment and diffusion address different issues. Treatment is chosen for the actual room and goals, with specialist measurement included where agreed.
Storage for records and equipment
Built-in cabinets can combine record storage, component shelves and cable access. We confirm equipment weight, shelf depth, clearances and ventilation.
A room you want to spend time in
Comfortable lighting, finishes and seating make a listening room inviting. Your equipment can remain the focus without dominating every surface.
From a listening corner to a dedicated room
Hi-fi, vinyl and everyday listening
Start with a pair of speakers and your favourite chair, or create a complete room for a record collection. We coordinate storage and finishes around equipment you own or plan to buy.
Music and movies in one room
A shared media space needs an agreed listening and viewing position. We can build the cabinetry, lighting and cable routes around a system that serves both. Explore home theatre construction.
Three steps to your listening space
1. Tell us what you enjoy
Start with how you want to use the space. Equipment lists, photos and budgets are optional. We can help you choose a direction.
2. Arrange a room review
We measure, review access and the existing construction, and agree the layout. Your written scope separates renovation work, equipment, specialist design and any required approvals.
3. Build and finish
We coordinate the agreed construction, wiring routes, joinery and finishes. Equipment installation, testing and specialist calibration are included when listed in your quote.
FAQ
Planning a room for music
Do acoustic panels stop neighbours hearing music?
Panels mainly address sound within the room. Reducing sound transfer requires an assessment of the building construction, doors and other transmission paths. See soundproofing.
Can you use speakers and equipment I already own?
Yes. Model details help confirm dimensions, ventilation, connection routes and mounting needs. You do not need to replace a system simply to improve the room around it.
Can you promise a particular sound quality?
Results depend on the room, system, placement and treatment. We agree the construction scope and any measurement or specialist calibration before work starts. We do not promise a universal acoustic result.
Does this include electrical work?
Electrical changes are identified in the quote and carried out by qualified trades where required. We can coordinate outlets, lighting and cable access with the room plan.

Read full reviewWe had an excellent experience working with Maxim and Strataline Inc. Installing and perfectly matching a custom stain for our oak treads was no small task, and the addition of the square posts made it an even greater technical challenge—but everything was executed flawlessly.

Read full reviewMaxim at Strataline did a very professional job in removing our hallway popcorn/stucco ceiling. The end result was a completely smooth surface and not only that, they totally sealed off the area so absolutely not dust penetrated other areas of the house.
