How to Pick a Home-Theater System

When buying a home, you have many things on your list of things to do. After settling in and getting all the basics in order, the next step is to focus on the things that make a house a home—like setting up your entertainment space. A luxury home theater allows the homeowner who enjoys movies, TV, and other digital entertainment to experience it in a whole new way. However, good luxury home theaters have certain traits that set them apart from simply hooking a TV into a set of store bought speakers. Here’s some advice our team at Alarms R Us have put together to help you know what to look for in a luxury home theater.

Video Playback Quality

if you want maximum video quality, then a Blu-ray player is an absolute must. While DVDs remain popular and very affordable, many DVD players cannot display in full high-definition picture quality. If you’re truly looking for luxury, only the high-end display of a Blu-ray player will do. Plus, Blu-ray players can upscale DSVDs and display streaming service in higher resolutions as well. Note that getting the right equipment isn’t enough. The video playback system must also be properly set up and configured to display correctly and work in unison with the television set. If you know how to do this yourself, great! Otherwise, you may want to hire a home-theater professional.

The Right TV

You can find several different types of TVs on the market. Many display high-quality video imagery. However, not every TV is perfect for every room. Experts recommend different television types for different environments:

  • LED TVs are by far the most common. They offer a thin profile and good picture quality. While they can work in any situation, well-lit rooms work best.
  • Plasma TVs are not as common as they once were, but they still offer many advantages. Their color display is something to behold with rich colors and darker shades being deep and properly displayed. They work really well if a homeowner has a darker location for their theater system.
  • OLED TVs are very expensive but offer the brightest, sharpest, and most balanced pictures on the market. They are also very thin TVs.

No matter what a homeowner chooses, proper installation is a must. Alarms R Us can make sure your television is properly displayed to have the best possible viewing angle and achieve the proper distance away from viewers to maximize picture quality.    

Sound

One technical aspect to consider when installing a sound system is its wiring. This is where the experts come in. Sound systems are very hard to wire properly. With expert installation, you can be sure that every speaker is expertly placed to maximize sound quality and that the wires are properly hidden. Alarms R Us offers a wide range of sound system configurations to enhance any viewing experience.
