Home theater today is a revolution. At its best it provides an experience that transcends the cinema experience, making it something more accessible, more personal and more fun.  The total home theater experience combines audio, video, lighting, shades, AV gear and temperature control with one multi-function remote control.  

With today’s busy lifestyle it’s nice to be able to come home and relax in your own media room or custom home theater.   Movies, sports, home videos come alive on our crisp High Definition (HDTV) screens. Amazing detail in today's projectors would make you feel that you have traveled around the world with Discovery Channel while you were comfortable and relaxed in your home theater seating. 

What makes up a good home theater?  You can walk into a big box retailer and pick up a projector, receiver, speakers, projector mount, speaker wires, and a screen. But you want to make sure that what you selected is not over-sized or undersized for your specific environment. This is where most of the inexperienced installers make mistakes that end up costing the home theater owner or produce less then desired results. 

Start with the theater screen. Ask yourself the following questions: where it would be located, what size should it be, how far from the screen you will be seating. These are important decisions. A wrong decision can have your neck tired by the end of the movie or give you a headache from rapid eye movement. It is important that you size your screen to the type of watching you will do as well as the overall size of your room.  

Projector is the most costly component of your system; while the price has dropped significantly it is important that you pick the right one for your theater.   Key aspects of choosing a projector tie back to your home theater room. There are few considerations: How big the image projector needs to project, where it will be located in relationship to the screen, how bright it needs to be, and definition / clarity capability. The projectors that have the largest screen at shortest distance tend to cost more and produce far more superior results. Bright projectors compensate for the distance with brightness but tend to run hot and the replacement bulbs are expensive. Our advice is simple, buy only as much projector as you need for your home theater. You will save some cash, and will still have the best performance in your custom home setting. 

Sound is an essential part of the home theater experience. Movie directors spend countless hours in sound mixing studios to ensure that in addition to what you see on the screen you have a sense of presence. May it be birds singing from rear channel right, footsteps from rear channel left, helicopter flying from front to back of the room, or as simple as high definition sound of football flying overhead. It takes professional design and calculation to make sure that speakers are placed properly, tuned to the right channel, and optimized to deliver just the right amount of sound. We start with speaker selection, it allows us to blend your home theater with your design, and tells us how much air we have to move in the room in order to deliver movie theater experience. Once speakers are selected we test, calibrate and adjust them to resonate with your home structure. 

Receiver (also called amplifier) becomes a centerpiece of your system. We build systems ranging from one receiver to several ones (room size and air movement calculations). What we look for in receivers is frequency response, vendor reputation, reviews, and expansion abilities. If all checks out to your liking, the last thing to check is the ease of use.  

Finally, tie it all together with a one touch remote control.   Selecting the right remote control will be one of the things that make the biggest difference in your enjoyment of your system.  Ease of use using in controlling your home theater components is one of the biggest things that people overlook in designing their home theater systems.   Selecting a remote control that has the ability to control the home theater, whole house audio, lighting, HVAC, and security to name a few will be a purchase that you are sure to appreciate.  

There are many other aspects of building a great home theater: Seating, Soundproofing, Source DVD, Gaming Systems and much more. Let us help you select the right components and you will be glad you did.
