The AB(V)Cs of Premier Home Theater Design

Quality in commercial theaters continues to deteriorate, with even industry bigwigs like Jason Blum commenting on what a terrible experience going out to the movies has become. That, along with quick access to new releases on streaming services, has skyrocketed the demand for home theaters. But many moviegoers wonder if cinema's magic can be recreated at home. The answer? With the right home theater design, it can be even better than what you're used to. Here's how we do it for our clients in the Greater Atlanta area.

Audio

As Blum's comment and the replies to it show, audio issues often cause the most havoc when watching movies. We go out of our way to ensure our clients have great sound. It starts with finding the ideal room (for example, square rooms are terrible for acoustics) and then the precise placement of high-performance speakers. We work with the top immersive audio formats like Dolby Atmos and integrate overhead speakers so sound encompasses you from all sides.  

Video 

For video, we recommend working with a projector-and-screen combination rather than a flatscreen since this will allow you to have a larger display while maintaining optimal quality. 4K video projectors from Sony not only offer great resolution but also unrivaled contrast, color, and realism. Pair the projector with a dedicated theater screen that rejects ambient lighting to avoid glare or washed-out images. 

Content 

As Bill Gates famously said, "content is king." Though he was talking about the future of the internet, this is true for home theaters as well. As part of your dedicated theater design, we'll incorporate AV receivers and media servers that give you access to all your favorite entertainment. Easily pull up your Godfather Blu-ray collection, the latest Netflix release, or the Falcons game.
