The Dedicated Home Theater
Dedicated home theaters bring quite a few “pluses” to the table. This controlled environment means that we can optimize the space and create the best entertainment experience possible. Whether using blackout shades or choosing a room without windows, no ambient light means incredible, cinema-quality onscreen images.
You may consider a higher-end video projection system and 4K HDR TVs for the ultimate in picture quality. The depth of color, brightness, and clarity brings every scene to life, transporting you to a different place and time.
These rooms can also be acoustically treated for sound control. Special construction techniques with speakers and subwoofers hidden behind acoustic treatments can create a space where the sound surrounds and envelops you. Klipsch makes some of the best sounding speakers, from in-ceiling to professional cinema speakers. Each creak of the ghostly door, deep bass of the drums, or the delicate tone of wind chimes creates a crystal-clear sound that you not only hear but feel.
These rooms are uniquely designed based on a client’s vision. Some want soft, cushiony seats on risers to allow for unobstructed views and that high-end “movie theater” appearance. Others opt for large couches and loveseats that create a luxurious and welcoming vibe. Whatever you can dream, we can do.
The Open-Style Family Room Theater
The open-style family room theater can be just as fun and entertaining in a different way. Instead of opening doors and walking into a room specifically designed for movie night, a family room theater surprises you. A motorized projection screen drifts down from the ceiling when it’s time for entertainment, or maybe your large flat-panel TV screen that looked like fine art in a wooden frame morphs into a screen perfect for movie night.
You may also be surprised to learn that we can create a surround sound experience despite the large open area. We can even make this type of experience in your backyard! Using a Dolby Atmos surround sound system, we integrate theater-grade in-wall and in-ceiling loudspeakers and subwoofers into the décor, so you’ll feel like you’re in the action of your favorite movie without seeing any of the speakers.
Smart Home Automation
When you integrate your theater into your smart home automation system, you can pre-set scenes, making it easy to masterfully change the environment. With just one touch of a button, the lights dim, the blinds lower, the screen descends, the picture appears, and the sound surrounds you. Technology has created incredible convenience and a type of lifestyle that is hard to define unless you’ve experienced it first-hand.
