Brentwood Mall
Our experience at Brentwood Mall with Allstar as our AV systems provider has been very positive. Fred Michael, Bryan Somerville and Myk Shaflik have been very professional and great to deal with. They followed all site rules and regulations and worked well with other trades. We used them for a large number of complex systems including site background music, tying in music with fountain shows from another provider, large LED screens, lighting programming and tie in, etc. Beyond the initial scope of the project our team has made a number of requests for additional items and programming as we began to use the systems. Allstar has been quick to offer solutions, provide quotes, and get work completed on
these projects in a timely manner while sticking to the quoted amounts. I would not hesitate to recommend them.

MacEwan University
Allstar Show Industries has provided audiovisual products and service to Grant MacEwan University for over ten years, and is currently in the second consecutive contract of holding Preferred Vendor status for the University. We are very happy with the AV consulting services, installations, service and support provided by Allstar. We use Allstar for projection and display gear, audio reinforcement for classrooms, theatres and public spaces, and other specialty AV installations too numerous to mention. Allstar also installs and programs our Crestron control equipment on-site, and it has performed very well for us without problems. We fully recommend Allstar Show Industries for any institution’s audiovisual needs.

City Centre Campus
Simon Fraser University Center for Dialogue
As an NV design consultant, we, unfortunately, see a lot of installation work that needs serious corrective measures. I cannot tell you how refreshing it is to see a job done correctly the first time. The quality of wiring and harnessing used in the racks at the SFU Centre for Dialogue is nothing short of textbook perfect. It is also refreshing to work with a contractor who takes the time to understand our design, and to properly integrate it. Gary Urlacher was particularly good to work with. I feel I must also single out your control system programmer, Brook Pimm, for special mention. Control programming is an art, and too few contractors have access to experienced and competent programmers. Brook was able to deliver exactly what I wanted, and then some. I do not hesitate to recommend your company as a “well above average” NV contractor whom a consultant can rely on to properly interpret and install a system design.
Yours very truly,

I am happy to provide a reference for “Allstar Show Industries”, a professional audio/video design, integration and installation company we have partnered with for many small and large scale projects over the last ten years. Examples of their quality installations and equipment integration are utilized daily throughout the Mount Royal University campus include the Kenyon Gymnasium primary audio system and subsystems, Performance Theater audio systems and Lecture Theater audio systems. I am also pleased to add that “Allstar Show Industries” have been selected as the install contractor and audio visual equipment technology provider for MRU’s new “Conservatory of Music” and “Performance Theater” which are scheduled for completion in 2015. Suffice to say we have the utmost confidence in Wayne and “Allstar Show Industries” as they have over the years provided dependable and straightforward solutions to some of our most high profile facilities on campus and I would certainly recommend themfor any related installations or design planning.

During the purchase of our large sound system Wayne and the installers took extra care to get it done right. Many conversations were had in the design phase regarding placement and type of speakers with computer generated simulations done. Installation went exactly as planned, and again, extra time was afforded to the commissioning of the sound system to get it as near perfect as possible. I enjoy working with Wayne and the others, and I have contacted Allstar for various other jobs. I have found them professional, but with a sense of fun that helps the day pass with a smile. I do not feel like just another job; I feel like they care about what I am doing and they want to help me do it.

Wisteria Place
Allstar has been a major contributor to our audio visual and communication needs. Wisteria Place started construction in 2019 and was completed in August 2021. Our systems set up behind the scenes was complex as we operate a high-end intuitive system for our residents daily needs. It was a lot of installation and then training our team on the systems. Myk even did videos to give us an overview of the systems. We are very thankful that the technology is very easy to use with the training provided. The residents are very happy with the technology we use to support all of the residents needs from audio to visualization. The Multipurposeroom on conjunction with Steveston Buddhist Temple has a “sanctuary” feature where the residents can stay in our building and watch the Sunday service on the Jumbo Screen projector. How cool is that!!!. We can divide our rooms up the multipurpose room into 3 events and use the audio visualize having different events. Myk and his team come highly recommended and I would definitely use them again.

“The Forestburg Community Centre Board would like to express it’s appreciation to Allstar Show Industries for their expertise in helping us with our Community Centre sound system upgrade. We have received many comments on how good the system sounds, how easy it is to run, in particular with the user defined buttons, and the versatility of the many available input formats and output combinations. Your technician, Peter, was most patient and knowledgeable in fine tuning the system to our hall and setting up the scenes which would support most, if not all, of the requirements of the various uses of our venue. It was a pleasure to work with you and the rest of the Allstar people on this project, including the friendly and efficient manner with which your receptionist handled the many phone calls we made in the decision-making part of this project. “

The Italian Cultural Centre has had AV equipment and services supplied by Allstar Show Industries for many years, including the original system from about 12 years ago, ongoing upgrades and a full system renovation in 2019. During that time Fred Michael and his team have kept the system in good working order and up to date with current technology. In particular, staff members have commented on how easy the system is to use since the most recent renovation and the noticeable improvement in video and audio quality. I have no hesitation in giving Allstar Show Industries my personal endorsement as a company that will deliver on what they say and support the client at the highest professional level as time goes on.

“I acted as Project Manager for AV systems and lighting upgrade executed at the Unitarian Church of Vancouver during the summer of 2021. I was asked to oversee the upgrade of the audio and lighting systems at a local church that is a heritage building. The audio system installation was awarded to Allstar Show Industries and I worked directly with Fred Michael for the duration of the installation. Even with pandemic uncertainties, Allstar provide top notch service on all fronts. Helping me research and understand the congregation’s needs, choosing the right products, installing, and training. Everything worked out seamlessly and my clients are super happy with their new audio system. I have no hesitation in endorsing Allstar Industries and Fred Michael as expert AV System Installers”.

“With Allstar I was amazed at the flexibility and competence of their installers. They were very happy to work around other contractors, often late at night in order to get our system up and running for the opening ceremonies. Allstar has been very committed to our happiness long after the construction was completed. Allstar seemed very willing to make small changes afterwards as well to accommodate the easy operation needs of our facility. The quality rack construction and wiring installation has been admired by many other contractors who have seen their work in our facility. I have no hesitations about recommending Allstar Show Industries for your equipment or production needs”.

I would like to thank Allstar Show Industries for their conscientious work on the Stanley Theatre Renovations in Vancouver. As the Theatre Consultants on the project, we appreciate the difficulties involved in working to a fixed budget and a very tight schedule.

Through our involvement with Allstar Show Industries on other theatre installations, we have a great deal of confidence in your ability to provide an excellent product. Allstar’ s knowledgeable suggestions and top quality equipment are combined with a high standard of design detailing, workmanship, installation, system adjustment and verification.
Thanks again,

In fact, not only did ALLSTAR perform superbly in their contracts with us, they also stepped in to correct problems resulting from a contract for AN services with another company during this project. Other experiences with ALLSTAR Show Industries are that they are a company truly focused on meeting the needs of their clients at a reasonable cost. Their flexibility and commitment to top quality service and equipment contributed significantly to the success of our project and every one of their staff who worked on our project were extremely professional and dedicated to excellence.
