Guardian walkthrough and the innards of the house

This week, we had our guardian (low voltage) walkthrough, in order to confirm that the options we selected are indeed, what we wanted, and that the locations we originally envisioned made sense. Let me add, that the guy (Paul) who we did our walkthrough with, who was also the same gentleman we sat down with and made our original selections, was awesome and helpful as usual. 

Is it just me, or does one not hear guardian and envision something or someone different, then the "low voltage" folk?

These guys?

Maybe someone like this guy?

Or even this?

Definitely not this:

But I digress, the walkthrough was short and sweet. In our case, possibly because we hadn't selected but so much, it was essentially just a confirmation of which walls did we want the various low voltage outlets (hdmi, coaxial, usb, ethernet) on and where did we want our speaker pre-wires.

We selected 4 speakers or 2 room packages I believe. Two are split between the morning room and kitchen, as in, 1 in each, centered along a line. And the other two will be on above the nearest window sills along the same wall as our family room TV. After we determined where they would be placed, we walked into each room where we asked for a low voltage outlet, and specified which wall they would be placed on. 

That process was surprisingly a little tense I felt like. Mainly because you have to picture where you'll want your bed or viewing angle, or desk to be, without any actual furniture! And then sort of live with it. Granted, you can one day go back and rip out or snake cables through the wall at your discretion, but I'm more of a "put thought into it the first time and live with it" individual.

In any event, it gave us the first official opportunity to walk the house and go up and down our stairs (temporary ones) and go into each room. And it was uber exciting!!!! I'll throw some of the pictures beneath.
