Start with the equipment.
Fit and performance come first. Projector geometry, ventilation, speaker placement, and service access are verified before production.

Every story has a beginning
Aegis began with a practical problem: how do you bring large-format projection into a real living room without leaving the projector, screen, wiring, and equipment exposed?

Why Aegis exists
The goal was never to hide technology for its own sake. It was to make high-performance AV practical in rooms people use every day.

From fascination to fabrication
Mike Kelley remembers hearing Van Halen’s 1984 on his family’s stereo as a kid, then seeing Top Gun on laserdisc in a home-theater showroom. Those moments made audio and video feel larger than equipment specifications.
Years later, an electronics and engineering background—and the discipline learned as a Marine—shaped a cabinet company focused on positioning, cooling, dust control, wiring, service access, and furniture that belongs in the room.
The Aegis standard
Aegis cabinets are planned as systems. Screen, projector, speakers, sources, cooling, wiring, storage, room placement, and finish all affect the result.
Fit and performance come first. Projector geometry, ventilation, speaker placement, and service access are verified before production.
Collection, finish, cabinet size, storage, glass, legs, lighting, and custom work are selected around the space.
Cabinets are made to order and tested in San Angelo, Texas before they leave the shop.
