Getting Excited About Your Home Theater Installation
Have you been thinking about the perfect home theater for some time? We know it’s a lot to consider and can be overwhelming. If you’ve scrolled through Pinterest or browsed the internet, you’ve seen how nearly limitless the options are in home theater design.
A home theater installation, however, shouldn’t be stressful. It should leave you excited about the possibilities and in anticipation of sitting back, watching the lights dim, and experiencing a first-class movie theater in your home. From the first to the hundredth home theater installation, our team of designers, engineers, and integrators at Andrus Smart Technologies are always thrilled when a homeowner gets to enjoy their new home theater for the first time. It’s why we’ve been in business in the San Diego, CA, area for almost 20 years.
Let’s explore a few of the considerations when creating your entertainment center and why Andrus Smart Technologies is the homeowner’s choice for home theater design.

Exploring Room Options
The “ideal” room for a home theater is often defined as 20 x 15 feet and a ceiling at least 9 feet high. Of course, the perfect room dimensions rarely exist in the real world. Our team has created home theaters out of basements, extra bedrooms, dens, and even outdoor areas by the pool.
We’ll explore your options and determine the best for your unique situation. Once the room is determined, we’ll account for all the aspects that impact audio-video performance to ensure the ultimate in images and sound.
Every Seat is the Best Seat
One of the most important considerations is seating. The specific layout determines the number of speakers and their placement, guaranteeing an enveloping surround sound for everyone. We also optimize subwoofers so everyone feels and hears the explosive, action-packed scenes and the deep bass in music scores.
Seating also affects the screen size and placement and requires the right planning and design to ensure no interrupted sightlines, strained neck muscles, or inadequate viewing angles.
Sound Isolation
Can you imagine enjoying your first blockbuster movie in your new home theater and hearing the neighbor’s dog barking in the background? Neither can we. Sound isolation ensures we keep the external noises out and keep your surround sound in.
Lighting Design
As with the rest of your home, lighting is integral to your home theater’s design, aesthetics, and functionality. Do you want to create a mesmerizing mood with starlit fiber optic ceilings? Maybe your heart’s set on wall sconces and recessed lights that dim when the movie begins. We’ll also integrate lighting that softly illuminates a trail to the door for those who need to take a break mid-movie.
18-Month Guarantee
We’re so sure of our abilities to build a home theater that exceeds our client’s expectations, we offer an 18-month guarantee on all our home theater installations.
