Dedicated home theaters are our passion. We know how to create a dedicated home cinema that is thoughtfully and elegantly proportioned to your needs and is designed in harmonious and luxurious balance, resulting in visual and acoustical perfection.
State-of-the-art electronics featuring top of the line loudspeakers, movie servers, dynamic surround sound and projection systems, are integrated and beautifully contoured to the space, engineered to perfection. Whether small and intimate or grandiose, we combine innovation with comfort in home theater design to celebrate the cinematic experience the director intended.
We can also seamlessly integrate the control system with the home theater to the rest of the house giving you the ability to flow from any room right into the theater with ease.
Choosing the right projector is the most important decision in in achieving an impressive movie experience. There are a number of options to consider; throw distance, brightness, lamp technology, resolution, and 3D capability to name a few.
Throw Distance:
Throw refers to the distance between the film-screen and projector lens. This distances is usually dictated by the architecture of the room. Nicer projectors use interchangeable lenses to allow better flexibility with projector placement. Some people believe that longer throw distances reduce brightness at the screen, but that’s a misconception. The only thing that affects brightness is the size of the screen.
Brightness:
Generally, the higher the brightness, the better. However, there are a number of things that can influence the amount of brightness needed. The size of the screen, ambient lighting in the room, and screen material are such examples.
Lamp Technology:
High-end projectors, such as those by Runco, are moving to LED bulb technology as rather than the traditional metal halide bulbs. There are a number of benefits when going with the newer LED projectors. The bulbs never need to be changed saving thousands of dollars over the life of the projector. A replacement metal halide bulb for a high-performance projector can cost $1,000+. LED projectors also run much cooler which reduces noise from cooling fans and also reduce the air conditioning needed to to compensate for the heat.
The right screen for your home cinema is very important. Just as with projectors, there are a number of options to consider.
Screen Material:
A wide range of projectors and room dynamics require various screen materials. Image size and projector light output can be matched to the appropriate fabric, yielding predictable professional results. Higher lumen output projectors match well with lower gain screen surfaces. Hot spot artifacts are minimized; resolution and viewing angles are increased. Projectors with lower lumen output can be augmented with a quality Stewart high gain screen. Brightness is retrieved and the image emerges even when ambient light control is not optimum.
Aspect Radio:
Generally, home cinemas have a 16:9 aspect ratio commonly known as ‘widescreen’. This means the screen is 16 units of measure wide by 9 units tall. However, many blockbuster movies are filmed in a number of different aspect ratios. Active masking is an option on some screens that allow the screen to change is aspect ratio based on the content being watched. This allows for the ultimate cinema experience while viewing the movie as the director intended.
