68: The Ten Suggestions

AV SuperFriends: On Topic
The Ten Suggestions

Recorded February 13, 2026

It’s March (yes, March– deal with it), the AV SuperFriends gather to lay down the law… higher ed AV law, that is. This month’s On Topic tackles the Top Ten Commandments of AV: the rules you should follow, the ones you sometimes break, and the ones you pretend you’ve always believed in.
From protecting audio at all costs and designing for serviceability, to avoiding 4K hype, over-automation, USB abuse, and unlabeled cables, the panel debates what actually matters when building and supporting campus systems. It’s a fast-moving mix of standards, safety factors, lifecycle thinking, and a healthy dose of “why are we still doing this?”

Opinionated, practical, and just irreverent enough, consider this your stone tablet for smarter AV design… subject to revision next month, that is.

Alternate show titles:

Sometimes you find yourself walking around thinking a lot
Today’s commandments are…
Do you want to disservice half the room?
How do you get away with that?
Is that in your scope to check?
The university as a whole…
Yes, if you’re touching the wall
