It's less pressure up front for everyone. 
Rough-in is still early in the process for a lot of homeowners. It's no longer a hassle if a customer is undecided about installing a certain type of technology while in the early stages of wiring. We can put an Xspot in at any potential location, the builder can cover it up, and we retrieve it later if it is decided to trim out that technology. No hold ups.

Xspot is our go to differentiator in the marketplace when speaking to new builders. If their guys aren't using the product already, it provides us a competitive advantage because we are seen as forward thinking so we don't get lumped in with all of the other AV Integrators. If you are not installing Xspot, somebody is going to have that advantage over you.

Had a homeowner whose shades wires were damaged during construction, and it cost $2200 in equipment to resolve.  We’ve used Xspot for years and have now started using their Shades solution.

Builder called last minute needing us to run speaker wire in the vault ceiling and line up with lights, fans, etc.  Xspot allowed us to jump in without a specific plan, run wires to a specific location and make adjustments at Trim if needed.

Easily line up different types of technology within a small space and without proprietary back boxes.   Uses the Xspot Demo wall in their luxury showroom to help set customer expectations.
