What Does It Take to Have a Dream Home Theater System?

Creating the Ultimate in Entertainment Starts with These Four Solutions

There are as many different definitions of the ideal home theater system as there are families to enjoy them. Some of the home theaters we create are modern in design, while others embrace old-world glamour. Because of this, one of the most important aspects of creating entertainment spaces that exceed our client’s expectations is listening. Once we understand your lifestyle, dreams, and design preferences, we can help you choose between the many nearly limitless options. The result is a home theater that becomes the favorite room in the house. 

Let’s explore the possibilities and the four essential components of today's home theater design.

1. Custom Seating

You probably thought we would start with the audio and video equipment. Fair enough. However, your seating determines just about every other element, including the placement of the speakers and lighting, as well as the size of the screen. In addition, the sight lines and viewing angles of every seat must be considered, ensuring that you get the best seat in the house, no matter which reclining chair or loveseat you pick. 

2. The Latest Surround Sound

Traditional surround sound places speakers around the listener and assigns sounds to each one. For example, the front-center speakers play the all-important dialogue. Today’s Dolby Atmos object-based audio is different. Sound is treated as an independent object and placed by sound engineers into a precise location within a 365-degree sound field. 

The result is a blanket of sound that engulfs the listener. This audio delivers such an immersive experience that it enables viewers to suspend their disbelief and accept what’s happening on screen as reality. This immersive experience is at the heart of a great home theater.

3. Lighting

Lighting is one of the most critical elements in your home theater. The right lighting sets the scene and creates the atmosphere, from recessed lighting to wall sconces. It may include the popular fiber-optic star ceilings that create an immersive sensation and provide depth. LED light strips can illuminate when it's time for a break, creating enough lighting to navigate safely without disrupting the mood.
