Whether in a living room, basement or other location, a home theater is often the most popular hang-out spot for entertainment viewing. Along with being a place to gather for movie night, it also provides an exciting way to watch and enjoy basketball, hockey, football and other sports.
Make your home theater a stylish and comfortable meeting space for family and friends with the following set up tips and ideas:
The Projector – Choose the right projector for your space. Begin by assessing the amount of light in the room. If you have lots of light, you’ll need a projector with more lumens or brightness.
Seating – Cozy seating is important for setting up a comfortable home theater. Arrange for comfortable seats with quality back support such as stadium chairs or recliner sofas.
The Screen – Choose your projector screen based upon the amount of light in your room. For example, white screens are best for basement theaters while a gray screen will show images best in rooms with lots of light. Another important thing to keep in mind, is the screen size should be determined by the square footage of your room.
Sound – External speakers provide a great way to ensure you have quality sound in your home theater. For even better sound, place speakers in the corner of the room and on the side of your seating area.
Lighting – Minimize lighting when watching movies or games with black-out curtains or room darkening blinds.
Projector Placement – If you plan to use your projector in multiple rooms, you’ll want to opt for a lightweight, compact and portable one. Temporarily place your projector on an AV cart or small coffee table when in use. However, when possible, you should consider mounting it on your ceiling for saving space and added convenience.
