Instead, you need products that fulfill on their promise – a high-end home entertainment experience that is second to none.

Video: Seeing Is Believing!
You’d never want to put a standard HD TV in your home theater to watch movies. If you did, you certainly wouldn’t feel captivated by the early 2000s display. Today’s projectors and TVs offer 4K resolution (more than 8 million pixels). Some even come in 8K – that’s 32 million pixels! With an updated TV or projector, you’ll certainly see and experience the difference. The following are the top brands to consider when you want a phenomenal display in your home theater.
- LG
- Barco
- Samsung
- Sony
- Stewart Filmscreen (for projector screens)
Surround Sound: Audio That Speaks Volumes
Please don’t use your TV speakers to listen to movies and music! While TV speakers have come a long way over the years, they simply will not provide the auditory experience you deserve. But with a surround-sound system, everything changes. Planes flying overhead in the movie – you’ll feel it! Actors whispering sweet nothings to each other – it sounds like it in your own ears. A classic musical theme – you’ll hear every note and nuance. Never settle when you want superior sounds. These brands won’t let you down:
- Bowers & Wilkins
- KEF
- Meridian
- Monitor Audio
- Sonance
- TRIAD
Lighting: Creating the Perfect Ambiance
What would it be like to have overhead fluorescent lights in your home theater? Not very appealing, right? Of course, you’d never do that, but some homeowners make the mistake of paying little attention to lighting with their home theater system. And yet, it’s one of the most important ambiance-setting technologies. A properly designed and installed lighting control system turns your average home theater into one that comes alive – with fiber optic lighting, recessed lights, wall sconces, floor lights, and much more. Here are the top brands to choose from:
- Lutron
- Control4
- Savant
Seating & Décor: Give Your Home Theater Personality
First of all, you need a comfortable place to sit. Actually, you need a luxurious place to recline while watching a movie. Fortress Seating creates luxury chairs, loungers, and accessories to put you in the driver’s seat while watching a film. Cup holders, swivel trays, headrests, and much more ensure you are completely relaxed during the show. Salamander Designs takes it a step further and designs luxury seats as well as AV cabinets, racks and stands, TV mounts, and much more. Both brands help you have personalized decor in your home theater.
Smart Home Control & Media Servers
You may not mind getting up to turn the lights off, lower the shades, or adjust the sound system. But it could be so much better! Smart home automation from Savant and Control4 puts everything at your fingertips. Adjust the motorized shades, lights, and AV without getting out of your seat. You can even access your personal media library, such as Kaleidescape, which delivers high-end, lossless media right to your private cinema. It’s the only way to truly enjoy premium home entertainment and seamless control of it all.
