I've been wondering why the low voltage contractor isn't proposing what you should be putting in your home. Part of what you're paying for is them to design the low voltage infrastructure. I respect wanting to be knowledgeable enough to approve their design/plan, but red flags are going up when I think about the contractor having the homeowner design this stuff. Is the plumber asking you what size and type of pipes he's putting in too? Lol

Please don't take this as an attack on you. I'm just saying I'd keep your ideas to yourself and hear what the pro suggests first. Then talk with the pro about the differences between his ideas and yours. They're the professional. If you don't respect them as such I'd find another until I did.

You're not having an electrician design your low voltage infrastructure are you? Perhaps that's the problem.
