Elias turned to see a guy in a blue polo named Marcus. Marcus didn't just sell tech; he spoke about it with the reverence of a curator.
Two hours later, the living room was silent. Elias stood back, drill tucked under his arm. The Playbar sat perfectly level, exactly four inches below his TV. He tapped 'Play' on his phone. The opening notes of a deep, orchestral score swelled, vibrating through the floorboards.
"I’m worried about the studs," Elias admitted. "The Playbar is heavy."
"You're going to want a level and a steady hand for that one," a voice said.
The Best Buy blue was a welcome sight. He headed straight for the home theater section, past the glowing OLEDs, to the wall of accessories. There it was: the Sonos Wall Mount Kit. It was slim, official, and looked deceptively simple.
It wasn't just sound anymore. It was part of the house. He sent a quick photo to Marcus at the store—a "floating" speaker and a job well done.
