Having a home theater brings the magic of the movies right into a living room. Home theater systems can be simple or complex, depending on the customer’s desires. Some customers prefer to buy in-store or online and install on their own, while others prefer to hire a professional for Home Theater Installation in Everett WA. Whatever the preference, any home theater system will include at least three basic parts: a high definition display, a surround sound speaker system, and an audio/video receiver component.
High Definition Display
There are two main options when it comes to high definition displays. One is the two-piece projection system, which includes a projector and a fixed-frame, pull-up, or pull-down screen. This system works best in a dedicated theater room. The other option is the flat-screen television. These are available in a variety of sizes and display types and work well in a family room setting.
Surround Sound Speaker System
Speakers come in varying sizes and shapes so that the best options can be chosen for the space available. Most systems will have five speakers and one subwoofer. Some will have seven speakers and one or more subwoofers. To take things a step further and truly provide a surround sound experience comparable to a movie theater, systems are available that include overhead speakers as well.
Audio/Video Receiver Component
The audio/video receiver component is the heart of a home theater system. It is designed to take the audio and video signals from a source, such as a DVD or Blu-Ray player, and decode and relay it to the display and speakers. This can be an all-in-one component, which receives, decodes, and relays the audio and video signals, or the components can be separate, with different parts responsible for the receiving/decoding and the relay of the signals.
