Wrong Display
Your intuition might tell you that bigger is better when it comes to home theater displays, but this isn’t always the case. A screen can be too big, depending on the size of the room. You must take the correct measurements of your wall and seating distance before you begin looking at possible displays. We recommend consulting a home theater professional like Andrus Smart Technologies to determine what size screen will work best for your home theater room.
Wrong Speakers
Most people tend to focus on the display when designing a home theater system, but the speaker system is equally important. Surround sound is imperative for a fully immersive movie experience; the type of speakers you choose as well as speaker placement and calibration play a key role.
Our team partners with industry-leading AV brands like Bowers & Wilkins to design and install fully customized home theater systems for our unique California clients. Bowers & Wilkins is universally loved by audiophiles and offers a variety of wired and wireless speakers for several applications. Consider their flagship CT800 series, which combines power, clarity and control to create a system that can be custom fitted into your home theater. The CT800 series can become virtually invisible once installed so as not to take away from your space and room décor. You’ll experience the soundscapes of your favorite movies in three-dimensional detail.
Controlling Tech Separately
There are many components to a home theater system: your display, your speakers, your media sources, any video game systems you might have, plus the control of the lighting and temperature of the room itself. Nothing is more frustrating than having to sort through a pile of controllers just to enjoy a movie night. Remove clutter and make control of your home theater so much easier with a centralized control system.
A Control4 system will enable you to control your audio-video equipment, lighting, thermostat and more from a single controller of choice: a dedicated touch panel, on-wall keypad, handheld remote, or even your smartphone. Set a scene for movie night, and with the single press of a button, your lights will turn off, your thermostat will adjust appropriately, and your movie will begin. Never again will you have to worry about choosing the right remote.
