Acoustic Design Systems (ADS), a Las Vegas-based commercial and residential home automation and security solutions company, has joined Home Technology Specialists of America (HTSA), an international trade consortium of the finest residential technology dealers and custom integration specialists across the U.S. and Canada. 

As an HTSA member, ADS says it will benefit from the group’s extensive marketing and personalized education resources and tools. Producing annual events and industry training, HTSA will hold a virtual spring conference to be attended by all ADS sales and management team members. HTSA was founded in 1996 by prominent technology specialty retailers who came together to share, learn and grow their operations.

“We are excited to join a collaborative group to discuss and learn best practices and operational concepts from like-minded companies across the nation,” said Chris Sterle, founder and CEO of ADS.

“Through this membership, our company will benefit from the wealth of knowledge and educational resources that HTSA offers as the industry continues to flourish.”

ADS also recently earned luxury certification from Home Technology Association (HTA), the first independent organization to educate and empower homeowners in their technology purchases, recognize exceptional businesses, and elevate the technology integration industry’s status and stature with a rigorous third-party certification process.

ADS was evaluated by more than 60 criteria including reputation in the marketplace, history of technical competence, and commitment to high-quality aftercare service and support.
