Why You Should Work with a Home Theater Designer

Create an entertainment oasis in your home by working with a home theater designer

If you want to make your home more entertaining, one of the best ideas for elevating the fun is to add a home theater. Not only can you watch your favorite movies and TV shows in4K and immersive surround sound to get a cinematic feel, but it also helps in improving family bonding time.

There are many ways to integrate a home theater system into your home. After watching an inspiring YouTube video, some homeowners might even consider taking on a DIY job. But once you start the job, you’ll realize it isn’t as easy as it looked, especially when the home theater needs to be integrated into your whole home automation.

In smart homes, even home theaters are automated, requiring special wiring. The cable work can get complex, and instead of working on it yourself, it is better to leave the job to a professional.

Expert Insight

Home theater installations require considering multiple factors. You first must pick the right space for the theater. Once you have decided on the space, the next step is finding the ideal equipment for it.  

It is important to decide whether you want a projector or flat-screen TV for your home theater. You then have to pick an optimum size and place the seating at the perfect distance to get the best view of the screen. All these might seem like easy tasks, but they require expert insight.

The integration of the sound system and its placement is also important. Your theater designer will provide a solution based on how you want to use the space and the limitations of the room. They’ll help you choose the best speakers for the job, their ideal location and calibrate them for optimal performance. 

Seamless Integration

You don’t want intrusive wiring hanging in your home theater. But when you work with an expert, you don’t have to worry about this issue. They’ll keep all wiring hidden behind walls and in the ceiling to avoid the unseemly—and at times dangerous---mounds of cords common in DIY theaters.

They will take care of the wirework and install the home theater system to blend perfectly with your smart home. This includes incorporating architectural speakers and subwoofers that remain camouflaged behind walls, so you get immersive audio without the clutter.

You’ll also be able to integrate your theater with the rest of your smart home features like lights, HVAC, etc. Then with a single button press you’ll be able to dim the lights, activate your flat screen or projector, and pull up your favorite streaming service.
