Custom Home Cinema
High definition (HD) flat-screen televisions and surround sound are transforming the way we watch television at home. It’s a far more immersive experience, comparable to going out to see a movie – hence the term ‘home cinema’.
Taking home cinema to the next level, we can convert an under-used room or space (such as a garage or basement) into a dedicated home theatre [link text], with professional level soundproofing, air-conditioning, audio systems and video projection equipment.
What makes a home cinema?
A typical home cinema comprises:
- an HD widescreen TV (usually with 3D TV capability)
- a DVD recorder/player
- a personal video recorder (PVR) - such as Sky+
- a surround-sound amplifier connected to strategically placed speakers.
This setup can be introduced into an existing living area or family room without disrupting its everyday use and represents a practical compromise between space, style and function.
The impact of the equipment can be reduced by using hidden projectors, retractable projector screens and in-wall or in-ceiling speakers.
How much will it cost?
A wide choice of systems and equipment is available, to suit every budget.
Whether you are looking for the highest fidelity audio reproduction, the most impressive surround sound experience, we’ll make sure you’ll always get what you pay for!
Is it just about selecting the best components?
We recommend top quality equipment from leading manufacturers – and we’ll tell you what pitfalls to avoid! Where our service really comes into its own is in planning, designing and implementing a complete solution tailored exactly to your needs.
Based on your room design, lighting and furniture (including floor coverings and soft furnishings) we will recommend a speaker arrangement and viewing positions to maximise the performance of the system as a whole. Our attention to detail extends to specifying the individual cables and plugs connecting all the components for the best results.
From the initial concept to loading all of your DVDs onto a storage system, our involvement can be as little or as much as you need. We are happy to work with your own designers, suppliers and installers as required.
