HOW OUR COLLABORATION CREATES INCREDIBLE SYSTEMS

We’re a technology integrator, which means we implement business technology systems, including audio, video, security, and lighting. Lighting is a major part of what we do, and we help businesses remotely control and automate their lighting with customizable LED fixtures. 

But we aren’t architects or property builders. We partner with these professionals to bring technology solutions to life in new businesses and homes. In a similar way, we collaborate with lighting designers to supply the technical and electrical side of wonderful lighting design

We partner with designers at Light Can Help You to fulfill breathtaking lighting designs through smart technology and custom programming. Here’s how we work with lighting designers to complete commercial lighting projects in the Dallas, TX, area.

Improve Sound & Office Privacy in a Glass Wall Conference Room in Dallas, TX

b2ap3_large_how-to-eliminate-echo-improve-privacy-in-a-glass-walled-conference-room-1

Glass-walled conference rooms are a hallmark of today’s modern, open-concept office. In urban Dallas offices—especially coworking spaces, design firms, and corporate headquarters—they offer sleek aesthetics, natural light, and a sense of transparency.

However, they come with two major acoustic challenges: echo and lack of privacy.

If your glass wall conference room in Dallas, TX, sounds more like a gymnasium than a meeting space, you’re not alone. Fortunately, solutions like acoustic treatments, sound masking, and AV integration can transform your space into a functional, private environment. Let’s explore how.

Why Access Control Is Non-Negotiable for Your Business

Protect What You’ve Built with Building-Wide Access Control 

What happens when your facility’s entry points aren’t as secure as you think?

In just the last year, several Texas-based businesses and organizations have suffered devastating breaches, each incident underscoring the need for proactive, intelligent access control.

While motives vary, these incidents share one common thread: a lack of sufficient physical access control. A damaged keypad, an unmonitored entry point, or a power outage shouldn’t be a free pass for criminals.

Do You Have to Sacrifice Picture Quality for an Artwork TV?

Not with the Sony BRAVIA + Leon Studio Frame 

If you dislike seeing a clunky black rectangle in your living room, artwork TVs are a dream for design-oriented homeowners like you. When not in use, the artwork TV transforms into a realistic painting or paper photograph on the wall, appearing so lifelike that guests will never know it’s a television. 

Unfortunately, most artwork televisions are great at displaying a matte art canvas, but don’t offer the highest video quality. Many ‘art TVs’ use a commercial display panel that is excellent for static images or low motion, but not ideal for action movies, sports, and games. 

If you want a true home theater experience, a TV like Samsung’s The Frame won’t take you there. Thankfully, there’s an alternative route that provides the best of both worlds: pair a Sony BRAVIA TV with Leon’s Studio Frame. 

Buying a New House or Building? Here’s How to Make It Smart

Look Ahead & Upgrade to Make the Most of Your New Home 

Are you purchasing a home with a home control system? Congrats! If it’s all ready for you, you’ll love it. 

Unfortunately, that is not always the case. New homeowners are often left with an outdated system or one that’s missing components. Maybe there’s wiring and speakers in place for multi-room audio, but it’s not set up for you. Or perhaps there’s a centralized lighting system installed, but some of the keypads no longer work. 

Or maybe your new home doesn’t feature any smart home technology, but you’d still like to install it. It isn’t too late! Wherever your house is in the smart home journey, here’s a technology checklist to help you create a connected, convenient home. 

The 11-Foot Portable LED Display Transforming Presentations

The ViewSonic LDS135-153

A Look at ViewSonic’s Massive New Display on Wheels

This may be a bold claim, but we think ViewSonic’s new video display, the LDS135-151, may forever change business presentations and trade events. 

It’s rare that a new piece of tech truly shakes up the industry, but what we have here is essentially a portable, foldable video wall. 

The LDS135-151 is a 135-inch Direct View LED screen. Typically, most Direct-View LEDs require assembling multiple panels together, taking as long as two hours to install. Now, setup is reduced to as little as five minutes, and the massive display can be wheeled around the room or building. 

Let’s take a closer look at ViewSonic’s latest innovation. 

How to Make Hybrid Work More Personable & Connected

Get the Benefits of Remote Work without the Downsides 

We love hybrid work. It’s incredibly convenient, widens talent pools, and helps people live their best lives without the stress of long commutes and finding local housing. 

But have we lost something without seeing each other in person? Face-to-face interactions lead to fewer misunderstandings, more effective communication, and stronger bonds. So, when your teams aren’t in person together, it’s critical to replicate the face-to-face experience the best way possible.

A well-designed video conferencing system not only ensures effective communication but also creates an inclusive environment where every team member feels equally valued. Let’s explore how advanced conferencing technology can improve hybrid communication and create a more welcoming company culture. 

Why Conference Room Lighting Should Not Be Overlooked

Attract (and Keep!) Top Talent While Improving Productivity in Your Meeting Spaces 

How is your conference room’s lighting? 

While it may not seem like the most urgent concern, your office’s environment can have a direct impact on employee performance, productivity, and morale. If people dislike being in your office, even if only a few days a week, they’ll be more likely to look elsewhere for work. 

Texadia Systems works with businesses across Dallas-Fort Worth, and we’ve seen our fair share of poor meeting room lighting. After we come in and update the lighting design, people are amazed at how much more enjoyable it is to meet and collaborate in their meeting spaces. 

So, whether you’re moving into a new unit or upgrading your current workspace, consider the following updates to your conference room lighting.

First, Get As Much Natural Light as Possible 

We can’t stress this enough. While most of us know intuitively that natural light makes us happier, there’s science to back it up. A 2018 study by the World Green Building Council found that workers in offices with natural light reported up to 15 percent higher levels of well-being, productivity, and creativity. A study by Cornell University also found that workers in daylit offices experience 84 percent less eye strain, headaches, and blurred vision compared to artificially-lit spaces.

Wi-Fi 7: What It Is & Why You Need It

Faster, More Reliable Wi-Fi for the Modern Home 

Not too long ago, we were writing about the exciting new internet protocol, Wi-Fi 6. But as our homes become ever more connected—and Audio Video streaming quality improves—that puts even more demand on our Wi-Fi. 

Enter Wi-Fi 7, the newest iteration of Wi-Fi standards, now available on home networking devices from brands like WhyReboot and Ruckus. Wi-Fi 7 offers accelerated connectivity, solid reliability, and performance that only compares to wired networks. Streaming 8K, gaming online, and smart home devices are all improved with a Wi-Fi 7 network. 

Here’s what you can expect from a Wi-Fi 7 upgrade and why you’ll be thankful you switched. 

What Is Wi-Fi 7? How Is It Different? 

The new Wi-Fi 7 promises enhanced speeds and reliability. Intel describes Wi-Fi 7 as having “wired-like responsiveness.” It packs more data into each transmission with 320 MHz channels—double the size of Wi-Fi 6. 

Wi-Fi 7 arrives at a perfect time, as 4K and 8K streaming becomes even more prevalent. Wi-Fi 7 can easily handle high-quality 8K video streaming, so you can enjoy movie night without buffering and pixelation.

The Soundbar Built for Samsung’s Frame TVs

Get the Custom Width & Length to Match Your Frame TV  

You care about how your home looks, right? You aren’t a college kid with thumb-tacked posters and a hodgepodge of random furniture. No, you’re an adult with taste and a home you take pride in. 

So, if you’re reading this, you probably understand the clash between interior design and setting up an attractive entertainment system. You could have the most beautifully cultivated furniture, artwork, and lighting—and then a clunky TV setup disturbs the entire aesthetic.  

Thankfully, many technology manufacturers are catching on and offering solutions to make TVs appear more aesthetically pleasing. Samsung’s The Frame television resembles a real piece of art when powered off, and fits ultra-slim to your wall. 

And now, audio manufacturer Leon has released a soundbar to perfectly fit the width and dimensions of any Frame AV. Meet the Leon FrameBar, the soundbar built for audio and design enthusiasts alike. 

The Soundbar Made for The Frame 

Leon’s FrameBar is custom-built to match the precise dimensions and frame color of any Samsung Frame TV, creating a unified, polished look. With its ultra-thin cabinet (as slim as 2.375 inches), the FrameBar installs flush to the wall using Leon’s exclusive mounting brackets.

Meet Q-SYS, the Modern AV Platform for Businesses

In today’s IT-driven world, everything from security to communications is built on scalable, software-driven solutions—except, for many businesses, AV. 

Traditional AV systems are still clunky, hardware-heavy, and difficult to integrate, leaving IT teams scrambling to manage disparate devices that don’t play well together. 

If your AV setup feels like a constant headache—requiring custom programming, endless troubleshooting, and costly upgrades—you’re not alone. But it doesn’t have to be this way. The Q-SYS OS by QSC is changing the game, bringing the same IT-friendly approach to AV that businesses have relied on for decades in their networking and software infrastructures. Here’s how it works—and why your business needs it.

What Should My Sound System Look Like? 

If you’re interested in audiophile-quality speakers, sound performance should obviously be your top priority. 

For the best sound, look for reputable brands with high-quality materials, large drivers, and the ability to accurately replicate high, low, and mid-range sound frequencies. (Unsure where to start? Use our hi-fi guide here.) 

And while sound quality is undeniably important, your new speakers’ appearance matters, too. After all, you’re going to live with this hardware in your home for years and even decades. You should like how the hardware looks! 

The following speaker brands not only offer incredible ‘inner beauty,’ but their outer beauty makes a great choice for the design-conscious homeowner. 

Stunning & Floorstanding 

Italy is known for its incredible fashion design (Armani, Gucci, Dolce & Gabbana)—and speaker design, too! Sonus Faber has been handcrafting hi-fi speakers in Vicenza, Italy, for almost half a century.

Retrofit Guide: Updating Recessed Lights to High-Performance LEDs

Update Your Downlights to LEDs & Reap the Benefits 

When most homeowners hear the phrase “lighting upgrade,” they assume it's as simple as swapping out an old bulb for a new one. However, switching from incandescent and CFL bulbs to LEDs can be a little more complicated for recessed/downlight fixtures. 

Downlights come in one of two forms: can or canless. Can lights feature a cylindrical housing behind the bulb, while canless lights are flush to the ceiling without any space around the light. No matter what you have, if your recessed lights still use older light bulbs, it’s time to upgrade to LEDs. 

Our partner DMF Lighting offers a Retrofit Kit that makes it easy to upgrade recessed lighting systems to high-quality LEDs. Let’s walk through how it works—and why it’s always worth upgrading to LED lighting.

Case Study: AV Integration for a Hospital Auditorium in Dallas/Fort Wort

Enhance Your Healthcare Campus with Advanced AV Solutions

Effective communication is non-negotiable, especially for institutions that serve as hubs for innovation, collaboration, and ongoing training. One leading hospital in the Dallas/Fort Worth area recognized that its existing auditorium Audio Video setup no longer met the needs of modern medical education and leadership meetings.

They turned to Texadia Systems to deliver an AV transformation that would support their commitment to excellence without disrupting current infrastructure. The resulting state-of-the-art auditorium supports high-impact presentations, seamless collaboration, and user-friendly operation for medical professionals and administrators alike.

Create a Versatile Media Room with Home Theater-Level AV 

Do you crave the ultra-wide screen, surround sound, and cinematic experience that a home theater provides—but aren’t sure if you have room for a home theater? Or maybe you do have the space yet wonder how often you’ll use a room with only a screen and seating. 

There’s a happy medium between dedicated home theaters and a living room setup, and that’s the media room. Perhaps a media room is a better fit for your Highland Park, TX home. You can still enjoy the high-quality audio and video setup you’d find in a home theater installation, but with more flexibility for other activities. 

Below we’ll share how you can create a multipurpose media room and what equipment to include. And to learn more about the world of home theaters, subscribe to our monthly newsletter here

6 Apps to Control Your Home? There Must Be a Better Way

6-apps-to-control-your-home-there-must-be-a-better-way

Condense Your Apps Into One Smart System 

To any homeowner who’s interested in smart home living, we tell them the best decision they can make is having a professional install a home automation system

But this recommendation is often received with skepticism. “I don’t need a whole smart home system!” they say. “I just want some smart lights and a smart thermostat and a few other things.” 

Fine, fine, fair enough. But as you begin to collect more smart home devices over the years, you may find yourself in over your head with apps and remotes. Here’s where it can go wrong

The Hidden Costs of DIY Smart Lighting

A luxurious living room with warm-toned Lutron lighting.

See What You’re Missing Without Professional Lighting Control

Do you dream of lighting that automatically adjusts throughout the evening, creating the perfect atmosphere on its own? Or do you wish you could turn off the entire house with just one tap of a button? 

Today, ‘smart’ Bluetooth and Wi-Fi bulbs are widely available in stores. But there’s a difference between owning a few smart LEDs and having a truly smart, centralized lighting control system. 

When you partner with a professional lighting designer, you’ll gain access to premium fixtures and smart lighting solutions that are only available through certified dealers. You’ll receive a clean, polished installation with all your lights and motorized shades connected to one central hub.

But if you’re still itching to buy some equipment, watch YouTube tutorials, and install it yourself? Let’s walk through the differences between professional and DIY lighting systems.
