BONITA SPRINGS, FL – March, 2008 -  Accent Electronic Systems Integrators, an industry leader in both low and high-voltage specialty electronics, and one of the  elite Runco dealer reps in southwest Florida, announced it has taken delivery of the world’s largest flat panel plasma display; the first ever in the state of Florida.

 Runco International, the leaders in home video display and technology, introduced the 103-inch flat panel, CinemaWall ™ XP-103DHD to the world at the Custom Electronic Design and Installation Association’s (CEDIA) annual conference held in Denver last Fall.  It is the largest and latest addition to their PlasmaWall™ product line.  With full 080p resolution, the XP-103DHD represents a significant leap forward in high definition flat panel technology measuring in at a mere 5 inches in depth despite its monstrous size.

 John Lupo, a techonology systems designer for Accent Electronic Systems Integrators, designed the system around the special requirements for the client, a prominent Naples area physician.  “The theater room presented unique challenges based upon the planned utilization of the space” explained Lupo, “and since the client wanted the space to serve multi-functions as a theater room as well as a billiards room, he also wanted the room to open up to the Lanai and pool area for entertaining, the Runco 103 provided the ideal solution for viewing movie-size images in high ambient light conditions.” The mack-daddy plasma sits in a beautiful state-of-the-art custom home theater where it is in good company with some of the world’s premier names in audio and video technology equipment such as Anthem, Paradigm, Sunfire and Velodyne  Rounding out this technological marvel of a home, Accent Electronic Systems Integrators also designed and installed a complete Crestron home automation and lighting control solution package as well.

BONITA SPRINGS, FL – September 14, 2007 – In an effort to better serve the ever-growing clientele that is being generated from the automation craze that is spreading like wildfire throughout the country, Accent Electronic Systems Integrators, a Bonita Springs-based specialty low voltage integration firm to builders, developers, architects and interior designers, announced expansion plans today of its Bonita Springs corporate headquarters.

Accent ESI plans to double in size by adding another 2,720 SF to its already existing 2,720 SF facility and another 5-10 employees to its current employee base of 15, to accommodate for the rise in popularity and subsequent growth of the space-aged “Jetson’s” type technology.

Automation is the ability to control electronic systems such as a thermostat, security system, interior and exterior lighting, irrigation systems, and audio and video distribution just to name a few, either automatically or remotely with a touch of a button. It is quickly becoming the “must-have technology” of choice among tech-savvy home and business owners alike and as result, this technology will continue to evolve exponentially over time as popularity increases. “Because technology changes so fast, we make an avid point to stay ahead of trends such as home automation rather than trailing behind them” explained Curt Rothenberg, Vice President and Founder of Accent ESI. Rothenberg went on to say, “Subsequently, the stagnant construction market has precipitated builders to welcome the home automation trend with open arms and incorporate it into their homes all in an effort to distinguish themselves from their competitors and I firmly believe that as more builders learn to embrace home technology, this trend will continue to rise not only in south Florida, but across America as well.”

This announcement comes one year after Daniel Robbins acquired the majority stock of the company of one the founders who moved on from the company. Robbins’ initial vision was to expand into integrated facilities systems within the residential and commercial markets by further expanding the product line and geographical reach of the company in an effort to turn Accent ESI into a statewide reseller of residential and commercial electronic systems. “Although the housing market continues to stumble, we have held our own and increased revenues two fold year to date over 2006, and it is essential to continue expansion and growth plans regardless of what’s happening on the street if you want to be positioned properly for grabbing market share when construction markets improve” said Robbins, President of Accent ESI.
