Justin Rollins

Vice President & Founder

Born and raised in Scottsdale, Arizona, Justin has always been involved in the high-end custom home industry. He started working at a young age for a construction company that built exclusive homes. At age ten he went to his first music concert and this is where his passion for music and sound was born. Justin began building speakers in his family’s carpentry shop and shortly thereafter, at the young age of 19, accepted a job at one of Utah’s premier home theater and automation providers. Worked his way up to a project manager and designer for this company, Justin designed and managed installs of systems ranging from one hundred thousand to over two million dollars in electronics.

After a few short years, Justin left and started Ambiance Systems. Justin grew this company from zero to over a million dollars in sales in only a few short years. Ambience Systems and Ecco Audio Video joined and rebranded as Argenta. Justin’s passion will always be in high-end audio, which he loves sharing with clients as well as with his six young children, who are his pride and joy.
