Seems high to me, I had quote for A-bus in 5 rooms, Intergra receiver and DVD player, and Speakercraft speakers and was around $7000, Almost $700 of that was labor at $85 an hour.

The wiring for the entire system is already in place. I paid about $2,000 to have it done. Don't know what else needs to be done except hooking everything up to the outlets, etc.

The system that dog posted about is a completely different animal than the ABUS system you have - a standalone ABUS system generally requires little to no programming.

My opinion (being in the business) is that the $2,360 actually seems rather cheap - I would expect 40 hours integration effort to be considerably more expensive. Then again, locale could be the difference here (we're in a major metro area).

That price is very reaonable. If you want your keypads to control the source equipment in the rack, that programming takes time and is too often underestimated. Be happy with that labor. If they are reputable you should get a good install.
