7.2.4 Home Theater Tour
In this home theater showcase, we’re excited to share a new theater we recently finished in a brand new home. We will cover everything in the theater itself and discuss the room, equipment and acoustic treatment. We also give special attention to how we calibrated the theater, including showing you some tricks for getting the most out of your surround sound.
Earphones | In-Ear vs. On-Ear vs. Over-Ear
We think there is a time and place for each of these types of headphones. Let’s take a look at each style and talk about how they perform in three primary areas — portability, comfort, and performance.
MASSIVE 179” Screen w/ 177 Speaker Drivers & 10,000 Lumens! Sony, MartinLogan, JL Audio
This ultra-high-performance home theater has 177 speaker drivers and a 10,000-lumen projector! The customer wanted to update their previous theater to the highest audio and video performance possible. Given the size of the room and the sheer power of the audio system behind it, it truly was one of the most immersive theaters we had ever seen when we were finished.
DIY 5.1 Home Theater Setup w/ Heco Speakers & Sony Television In Rented Townhome
For this tour, we are in a townhome that is being rented by one of our customers. When it comes to creating an immersive theater experience, a lot of construction can often be involved. This just simply isn’t feasible when you’re renting a space and don’t want to knock a ton of holes in your walls. Another challenging aspect of this living room is that it is not a perfect square or rectangular room. In this townhome, the dining area is attached, making it one large room with some strange dimensions. In this video, we show you how this customer used our Free 3D Home Theater Design Tool to create an immersive DIY home theater experience in their own rented living space without breaking the bank.
Heco 5.1.2 Premium Home Theater Showcase
Watch our latest video featuring a near-field home theater that we recently installed in a relatively compact bonus room. While we have many home theater showcases, the majority of them cover homes with dedicated theater rooms. The reality is that many people don’t have that kind of extra space available, but still want to create a cinematic experience in their homes. In this video, we’re going to show you how you can put a terrific theater in a more compact space, such as a bonus room, living room, or larger bedroom. Check out the overview where we look at what the space looked like before we started installing, a full time-lapse of the install, and then a demo of a few clips to see how well it performs.
Incredible 9.4.4 JBL Dolby Atmos Synthesis Sony Home Theater Install Timelapse
This was our first theater to have the latest JBL Synthesis SCL speakers which provide amazing dynamics for their cost. Paired with a Sony VPL-VW715ES projector and JBL Synthesis dual SSW-3 & SSW-4 in-wall subwoofers, this configuration gave us an incredibly seamless surround sound experience.
