Thinking about installing a home movie theater? There is more to it than simply plugging in the TV and connecting the speakers. Home Theater Installers in Everett WA, allow homeowners to watch movies cinema-style, while in the comfort of their own homes. Consider the following to start: the room, seating, and viewing screen.
* Room -; Unless the home is not a new construction, consider an addition, or converting basement or garage space. One needs to account for access to equipment and media such as cable, satellite, or broadcast TV services, internet, gaming systems, DVD/CD player, and other portable devices. The perfect room will be one large enough to accommodate seating and provide the recommended viewing distance from the screen, preferably no windows, and above or in a basement (for all the wiring).
* Seating -; More important than the type of furniture selected, is the positioning of the furniture. The worst places to put the furniture are smack in the center of the room or against the back wall. This is because the bass frequencies disappear in the center of the room and accumulate along the walls. Furniture placement also depends on the screen size, how many pieces of furniture, and the sound system itself.
* Screen -; Does one choose a Plasma, LCD, or projection system? There is no wrong choice as it depends on what you want to achieve most from the viewing experience. The main contenders for movie theaters are Plasma or LCD flat screens. If you intend to play video games, then choosing a plasma set allows for showing movement in more detail. An LCD TV is the better choice for rooms with ambient light leakage whereas Plasma sets have better contrast levels due to their superior black levels. Projection systems are very popular choices with screen sizes reaching 300 inches. Projection systems allow for viewing anywhere in the room and with the right type of wall, a screen is not even necessary.
* Consulting with Home Theater Installers in Everett WA is the smartest choice a homeowner can make when planning a home theater installation. They are experts at helping people get all they can out of their home theater systems and one runs the risk of missing out on some of the fabulous aspects of a home theater system. Resist the temptation to install the system yourself when you can have a professional do the work and ultimately be responsible.
