Company description: 

First Priority Audio’s goal is to make your home the place you feel safest, the place where you can connect with family and friends, the place where you can entertain and be entertained, and the place you can’t live without. From media room design to home lighting control, technology should be designed to simplify your life when at home and away. We believe our family business fosters a culture of humility, empathy, and integrity. These core values set the standard for what we do within FPA, and what our clients can expect from us. Through our 19 years in business we have forged lifelong relationships with clients and partners in our community. We’ve succeeded by focusing on a design first mindset and providing 24/7/365 support that our clients can count on. Our clients are family for life, not just the length of the project at hand.
