What Is A Home Theater Designed To Do?
Learn the Ins and Outs of This Home Entertainment Space
Have you ever arrived late to a movie and had to sit too close to the screen? Craning your neck upwards or sitting sideways to view the scene in its entirety can be a literal pain. Or maybe you’ve been watching a movie at a friend’s house, but the speakers weren’t properly calibrated, so you were left with too much bass but could barely understand what the actors were saying during a pivotal scene. Unfortunately, these same scenarios can occur if your home entertainment space is poorly designed.
Keep reading below to learn more about the essential components that go into a proper home theater design and how you can transform your Danville, CA, entertainment space.

Audio/Video Performance
An immersive visual and auditory experience is key for any home theater design. Mounting the biggest TV display you’ve ever seen on the wall simply will not do. Bigger isn’t always better. Once the seating and audio configuration is designed, then the proper screen size can be determined. The size of the room is the most significant factor for screen size.
For audio performance, a surround sound system featuring Dolby Atmos technology will create a 360-degree soundscape that places any viewer into the middle of every action or drama scene. In-ceiling and in-wall speakers can hide away in plain sight; though high-end floorstanding speakers are bold choices for true audiophiles.
Seating
Every seat should be a good seat to view movies and TV shows on the big screen. Tiered seating allows for clear sightlines for every viewer, and our team can build risers into a space to create the same look and feel of the seating at the local cineplex.
The fabric selections for your home theater space are not only the perfect fit for comfortable movie marathons, but they are scientifically designed to absorb sound and light reflection as well.
Lighting
You may think that turning off all the lights will set the perfect movie-time ambiance, but some lights are still necessary for a luxury home theater experience. The front of the room’s lights should be controllable and capable of turning off completely so the image on the screen is not compromised if a door opens or a window shade rises. Dimmable can lights and track lighting near the back end of the entertainment space allow for dramatic lighting effects and let viewers safely make their way out of the room for a bathroom break or popcorn refill.
