A Boston Automations Field Trip · San Clemente, CA

Walk In With Me.

Adam filmed every room of Sonance's 8,000-square-foot California studio — so you can hear what invisible sounds like. The tour starts at the front door.

Sonance Architectural

In-Ceiling & In-Wall

This is the sound most people never see. Sonance Visual Experience in-ceiling and in-wall speakers sit perfectly flush, match your trim, and fill a room evenly — no boxes, no wires, no compromise. In-wall subwoofers carry the bass from behind the drywall.

Sonance Invisible Series

Speakers You Will Never See

Fully plastered into the wall. Invisible Series speakers vanish completely — you paint right over them — and the whole surface becomes the speaker. Hearing it in person is the reason this studio exists.

Sonance Small Aperture

A Speaker the Size of a Downlight

Small Aperture rounds and squares match your recessed lighting layout exactly, so the ceiling reads as lighting — until the music starts. Step up to James by Sonance for aircraft-grade enclosures and grilles carved to match your ceiling.

The ceiling reads as lighting.
Round or square. Always flush.

Outdoor & Landscape

Concert Sound, Hidden in the Garden

Speakers in glass pool railings, in brick walls, in stair steps, and buried in the planting beds. Sonance and James outdoor audio covers the whole yard evenly at neighbor-friendly volume — weather-rated for rain, salt air, and New England winters.

Built to Order, Finished to Match

When the answer is more — more output, more finish options, more extreme placements — it's James. Bespoke speakers built to order in California, with grilles color-matched, veneered, or CNC-carved from solid oak to match your rooms.

Light That Changes the Room

Also in the studio: the light itself. Lutron Ketra tunable fixtures make art and shelving pop with one press and sweep from daylight to candlelight in a single fixture — and Palladiom shades move in complete silence. We design lighting and shading alongside audio: one system, one app.

Walk the Studio Yourself

Adam's films show you what matters. When you want to wander the rest, the studio is open — all 8,000 square feet, in 360°.

From the Studio to Your Home

Boston Automations designs and installs everything you just watched — we're the team Sonance recognized with the 2024 “Designed to Disappear” Project of the Year. The studio is in California; the experience is ours to build in New England.

Every project starts the same way: a conversation about your rooms, your music, and how invisible you want the technology to be.
