This is my first post on cocoontech. I am usually lurking around on AVS but been wanting to do a little more research on home automation. I don't have my dream home yet but have plans in the next few years to build. I plan to do all the low voltage wiring myself so I am going to take advantage of this great forum to make sure I am prepared for anything. I would like to say thanks ahead of time to all the fellow members that will be sharing some of their wisdom with me.
