When building a new home or upgrading an existing one, integrated music and video systems have been growing in popularity. Today, as more and more homeowners request such systems, the savvy builders are the ones who meet the challenge with not just the latest products and technology, but also with speed.

Miami-based Speed IT is aware that homeowners are interested in design and aesthetics more than ever before. The firm works closely with builders, designers, and architects, in order to understand the needs and desires of homeowners and to ensure that installers take special care of a builder’s needs for model homes, design center support, and reliable installations-before and after the installation.

When it comes to information technology, Speed IT’s founder Karim Quazzani is the man for the job. With a degree in computer science and several years of practical experience as a computer network consultant, it was only a matter of time before the hardworking Quazzani would go off on his own to start his own company. “When building or renovating a home, I found out that there was a huge gap between the artistic and decorative side of the project and its integration with electronics,” says Quazzani. “Professional installers were limited by the infrastructure. In most cases, concessions had to be made in terms of physical layout. I came up with a system, ‘the invisible solution,’ that was able to fill that gap. This new vision was welcomed by Michael Capponi, founder of Capponi Group, and as a result, Speed IT was founded. We became pioneers in this new venture where luxury, art, and technology go hand in hand.”

Your home automation system could gently wake you up with your favorite song. It could also turn on to your favorite television channel, just as you walk in the door to brew your coffee. All this and more can be enjoyed with a professionally installed networking solution that delivers results and offers a level of flexibility that you’d never have thought possible. “Speed IT is a one-stop shop solution that prides itself with its quality services, but is also known for its creativity, professionalism, and, especially, its speed.”
There are a number of ways to gain greater control over your home’s lighting and shades. Dimmer switches, keypads, and handheld controllers are a few of the options now on the market. Special lighting can create a powerful visual effect for any room, in almost any living environment. A well-designed Speed IT lighting system offers the power to control the ambience in your home with the push of a single button.

The term “information technology” has ballooned to encompass many aspects of computing and technology, and is more recognizable than ever before. The information technology umbrella can be quite large, covering many fields. Speed IT is a total service computer company with the capability to provide PC repair and maintenance, upgrading, and consulting for computers and networks, as well as leading-edge web design. It will happily assist the customers in setting up a network in the home or office.

Speed IT does not stop communicating after its products are delivered and installed. Knowledgeable customer support personnel are in place to help the customers. The technical support group is available to assist with designing a system, installations, and other professional advice. Speed IT also offers training at industry events, distributor locations, and in its corporate offices. Speed IT want their customers to grow with them and move forward.

“My goal is to expand this concept and eliminate the gap between art and technology by reaching out to visionaries, like us, worldwide,” says Quazzani. “Our research department is made of young and talented professionals that are constantly searching for state-of-the-art technology, and then assimilating it into our projects.”
