Home Theatre Installation Ideas

1. Ideas For Home Theatre Installation

2. Select A Location The ideal place for the home theatre installation should be about 20 feet long and 13 feet wide and a bit secluded from the rest of the place.

3. Mount And Insulate The home theatre installation is very similar to other installations, but the only exception is that you need to give more attention to the insulation. A grading of R30 is excellent for the ceiling, floor, and external wall covering, but don’t ignore the inner walls. The Loosely stuffed R11 will help retain the sound of that particular space and don’t let it rock the entire home. However, the sound will not be blocked entirely; you must attach a sound blockade after pre-wiring the room.

4. Pre-Wiring Of Surround Sound For pre-wiring a 7.1 system, these steps should be followed: Mark every spot where speakers will be placed: • Middle – just below or above the display screen • Right/Left– on one screen side at ear height • Border Surrounds – on the side of walls back of the main seating row • Back Surrounds – on the rear wall (how far aside depends on the system)

5. Pre-Wiring Of A Video Projector You need to pre-wire a video display projector for a large screen and realistic theatre experience that includes two cables. One of the cable ends should expand from the roof area at the back of the theatre where the projector will be placed, and the other cable’s end should attach to the system hub.

6. Pre-Wire Lighting Proper lighting is necessary for creating an atmosphere like a movie theatre which includes sconces and concave ceiling lighting across the side walls. You will need floor lighting across the steps if you want stadium seating. Move primary electrical cables to each of these places. Attaching the lighting to the RF dimmer would allow you to regulate it with the similar RF remote you need for the projector. Also, you can adjust the light setting to dim with just one press.

7. Fix Drywall and Voice Fence At this installation stage, you have two primary choices for auxiliary Soundproofing. Either you can implement special drywall potent of the sound blockade that can cost you eight times more than the standard one, or ordinary drywall covered with sound-decreasing materials like heavy vinyl. While fixing drywall, think about where to leave openings for audio and pre-wired cables so they can route through them. Whatever you choose between them, make sure to place a rock-hard door for optimal sound reduction.

8. Set Up Sound And Video Systems Once the drywall gets painted, fix your projector, screen, and speakers in the appropriate place. In the 20 by 13 feet theatre, the ideal size of the screen is about 110-120 inches. To get a more professional feel, mount the display with proscenium, an arrangement of black-colored acoustical boards that hide the center, left, and right speakers. These boards can be designed with traditional patterns, including family and friends photos or your favorite movie poster. Hiding the remaining speakers with acoustic panels magnifies as design.

9. Install Theater-Like Seating You can enhance your seating area with loveseats or comfortable theatre sofas for an authentic feel. Two lines of four seating will be appropriate for 20 by 13 theatres. Also, you can raise the back column with a pre-formed platform. These theatre types of seating come in various styles, including authentic leather with hollow casing in the seating’s arm. These seats allow you to relax and enjoy your favorite movie.
