About the Guest:

Joe Calise, President of Sights-N-Sounds

www.hometheater.biz

Joe Calise has been working with electronics his whole life. Tinkering as a child, and then starting a Car

Stereo and Security company while getting through High School. Joe then moved into the commercial
space of Satellite TV, and designed many Sports Bars and Night Clubs in the 1990’s. When the club
owners would ask for him to come to their home and setup a system, it was then that he realized his
true passion would be fulfilled in the High-End Residential category. Through the years we have also
worked on Private Aircraft and High End Luxury Motor Yachts as well.
Starting with Television connections, and maybe a pair of speakers on a Patio, the business has evolved
to complete Home Technology. As the owner of Sights-N-Sounds, Joe focuses on the day to day
business operations, sales and marketing, but on a rare occasion you will still see Joe pull up in a truck
and help solve a problem that is deemed “impossible to fix”.
Sights-N-Sounds is a family-owned business and Joe has been the only owner operator for over 30 years,
and will service you and your clients anywhere in the world.
