Having a dedicated room for your Home Theater gives you the ability to optimize audio and video performance while creating an interior design that suits your taste. As you begin your planning there are three very important considerations. First is the shape of the room. Rooms that are rectangular will have better acoustics than rooms that are square. Next is light control.
Light falling directly on the screen washes out the picture.
Ideally your plan for window treatments and lighting should provide enough ambient light for people to comfortably move around and operate controls, yet prevent bright light from falling directly on the screen. Finally, the actual construction of walls needs to be considered. If you want to prevent the sound of your Home Theater from reaching other rooms, special sound absorbing and insulating techniques can be used. We love having the opportunity to work with clients planning a dedicated Home Theater. The results are always worth it.
