You may have always dreamed of building your own home theater, enjoying the movies all to yourself without any distractions. You now come to the deciding point, to build a home theater or not to build one? There are certain things which need to be considered in home theater room design. There are basic components which include the room design, acoustics, lighting and the equipment.
First you have to choose where you are going to put your home theater. If you have a spare room, it is a good choice. If you are going to convert another room for your home theater, then planning that must be considered too. Having selected the place, you need to consider the design that you will use. You may want to choose a room where the screen is the centerpiece of the room. You may choose to place all the chairs on the other side of the room. You may also consider a simple theater room where sofas and the equipment are only there. You may even want to put in a refrigerator or a microwave so you can get food easily while watching.
Chairs are an important element too in the design you might want to have a sofa stuck on the wall or a reclining chair. You can also choose to have theater seats built into your home theater. This depends on you and what you think is comfortable.
Second is that you need to fix the acoustics. Sound is very important in a Home Theater Room Design. A movie is useless without the sound. You may opt for a surround sound system when choosing your theater room design. Within the room, you may do some tricks in order to keep sound from bouncing off this is to preserve the sound in the room.
Light is an important element of home theaters. In movie theaters, lights are dimmed. Especially when watching a movie, light are switched off. This enhances the colors that you see when you watch a movie. Every detail will be seen properly when the lights are turned off. With the room, as much as possible, do not put too much windows since light can penetrate into the room and disrupt a movie. It is okay if small ventilation is put, but a room can do without this since you may have the room with an aircon.
Lastly, when choosing a home theater room design, the system and equipment is important. You have to choose them really well. These must just fit into your room. It is not about having the biggest screen of speakers. What is important that when choosing the equipment such as the screen and speakers, they fit well into the room. No matter what equipment you choose to put in your home theater, make sure that all the wiring are hidden to prevent accidents or unplugging them while in the middle of a movie.

What’s the best home theater system to purchase at a reasonable price?
Getting ready to purchase a complete home theater system and have been looking at Bose but wondering if there’s a system that is just as good but cheaper. Looking for extremely high sound quality for movies AND music. Price range is $2500 total.
Answer
I also agree that Bose is overrated and overpriced. With their stuff, you are paying for the styling and the name, and not for engineering thats worth the price. Plus, they do a lot of costly PR.
If you are fine with more conventional audio equipment, then with the budget that you have mentioned, you have a lot of room to pick and choose. There are some great on line sellers who can offer a wide range of great equipment and some very good price deals. If you can, do some on line searches, and then see if a store by you can demo some of the gear.
Not lots of people know that amazon.com sells home theater audio gear. They’re worth looking at. Also, a couple of good on line sellers are Vanns and BPAV.
On receivers, great brands include Harmon Kardon, Onkyo, Yamaha and Denon. In speakers, there are such as Polk Audio, JBL, and Infinity, the last of which I am a big fan of.
I have a system with five Infinity Beta speakers run from a Carver pre amp, so I can say that that Beta line is really great sounding, and, since Infinity is discontinuing it, in favour of a newer product line up (Whose appearance doesn’t do it for me), there are really great discounts available on the Betas.
At BPAV, you can get the floorstanding Beta 40s for $230
each (List price $400 ea), th bookshelf Beta 20s for $110
each (List price $200), and a Beta C250 center speaker for
$110 (List price $250). If you want a 7.1 system, that’d run you
about $1010 for 2 Beta 40s, 4 Beta 20s, and 1 Beta C250.
Add in an Infinity sub from Vanns, model SW 12 for $400
(List price $800), that brings you up to $1410, leaving you a grand for the receiver. All the models I’ve mentioned are in cherry colour. No tax and free US shipping.
On receivers, theres a huge range to choose from. Amazon can get you into an Onkyo TX-SR805 7.1 Channel Home Theater Receiver (Black) for $712.59, free US shipping.
(I think that amazon now has to charge NY State sales tax for any shipments going to NYS) List price is $1000. Its also available in silver colour, for $704.47.
$2120 would be your paid price, and that’d be for some very very nice gear. If you want the Infinitys, you have to hurry, they won’t last that long.
