“My experience with Prime ECS is beyond my highest expectations. They provided me with an experience that combines excellent technology with incredible dedication to customer satisfaction.

"While Technology has become an essential part of designing a fine residence, my clients prefer to not have to think about technology. For them, it’s more about controlling their environment with ease at the touch of a button or a voice command.
The expectation is to be able to simply adjust the temperature, the music you hear, the light levels you see, and the security you feel utilizing an intuitive system.
Prime ECS provides a level of engineering and client service that make these systems feel natural to use. Additionally, They are sensitive to how technology impacts the aesthetics of a home. Every detail is thought through.
Derrick Thames and Prime ECS are more than “AV consultants”, they customize and create graceful living experiences.”

"Southern California is where many tech and design influences begin, marrying the two often can be challenging. Our clients, designers and architects projects require such high standards. Derrick and his team, at Prime ECS, have a proven track record of consistently meeting and delivering these high demands. We continue to build upon this steadfast relationship and know that our clients are well taken care of by the Prime ECS team”

"Derrick and the Prime ECS team are the real thing. They have knowledge, experience and integrity. I have worked with four other smart-home, low-voltage, audio-video systems companies over the last 20 years. It is a field that is big on promise and potential, but the implementation often falls short. Not so in my experience with Prime ECS. Their design and implementation exceeded my expectations. Their systems are high quality, perform brilliantly and have user interfaces that are simple and intuitive. And their ongoing support is always helpful, friendly and available after hours and on weekends. In all, I am delighted, amazed and grateful. Thank you Derrick and team!”
