Conference Room AV Systems in Ann Arbor, MI
AV control for conference rooms
AV technology that works for every meeting you run
Walk into one of our custom-designed conference rooms, training centers, or office boardrooms and you'll find one streamlined AV control system, not an intimidating rack of gear. Thalner builds AV systems designed specifically with conference rooms in mind, ensuring your technology is the last thing you talk about during your meetings.

A design process built around free consultation.
Most projects move through a one- to two-week design process, built around your space and at no cost to you.
Consultation
Your assigned project team works with you to define what the space needs.
Design
We design the system around how your space is actually used, and demo it before you commit.
Installation
Once you approve the design, our own in-house technicians install and program it.
Support
We maintain, troubleshoot and support the system for as long as you own it.
Part of one connected system
Streamlined control for modern AV technology
Your conference room doesn't operate in isolation. The same touch panel that starts a meeting can also tie into building automation, mass notification systems, or the digital signage in your lobby. Thalner fills in the missing hardware and gear that gets overlooked when AV is planned as a single purchase instead of part of the whole building.
Once your system is live, our service department keeps it running with firmware updates, system checks, and warranty support. We also take over existing conference room systems installed by other integrators and get them working the way they should.
- One-year warranty on every installation, longer terms available
- Service takeovers for conference rooms installed by other integrators
Don't let faulty AV disrupt your meetings
When a conference room's AV system is confusing, people stop using it. They bring their own laptops, skip the video call, or ask for help every time they want to share a screen. Thalner designs conference room AV systems for businesses, universities, and municipalities across Ann Arbor and the surrounding area with one goal: make the room disappear so the meeting can happen.
That means installing a touch panel that starts a call with one press, cameras and microphones that just work, and an organized rack of equipment seamlessly tucked away where nobody has to think about it. Whether you're outfitting a single boardroom or a full floor of training rooms, our team designs the system around how the space actually gets used, not around a list of equipment.
Conference room technology that works for you, not the other way around
Our in-house certified programmers build every AV interface for every room from scratch, utilizing industry-leading platforms such as Crestron, QSC, and Extron. That matters because no two conference rooms use technology the same way: one client wants a simple one-button start for Teams or Zoom, another needs the touch panel to also control room shades, lighting, and even electric tinting glass.
Our engineers start with a site visit to understand how the room gets used before we ever propose equipment, then fill in the pieces, mounts, cabling, camera placement, that get missed when a room is planned around a single TV and speaker. The same control platform we install in your conference room can extend into a building's AV control systems, tie into the digital signage in your lobby, or reach the audio systems running elsewhere in the building, so nothing operates as an island.
Thalner: Your conference room audio-visual support team for life
We've been operating out of the same building on Jackson Road in Ann Arbor for 60 years, and conference rooms have been part of our AV work the whole time. We've built out boardrooms and training rooms for corporate offices, city council chambers for local municipalities, and lecture halls and meeting spaces at the University of Michigan, where we've been a strategic AV supplier for nearly 30 years.
Every AV system we install comes with a one-year warranty, and most clients add an ongoing maintenance contract on top of it, where we routinely check firmware, test the touch panel, and make sure the room still does what it's supposed to do. That's the model: one team, the same account manager and programmer from design through years of support, free design work up front, and a commercial-only focus on getting the room right.
