In the media room we capitalized on the clients star wars and movie poster memorabilia. We painted a swath of red on the walls to highlight the posters. The carpet tiles were cut and arrange to mirror the fabric on the toss pillows.

Masterful Home Studio and Theater

ListenUp

When the owner and engineer at High Fidelity Mastering in Albuquerque, NM began building his ultimate dream home-studio, he called on ListenUp to help. The 1,260-square-foot facility was designed from the ground up as a dual use room - an audio mastering/restoration facility, and a 9.1.4 Dolby Atmos private theater. The building was constructed by General Contractor Tom Nelson of T-Squared Construction. All acoustic treatments were installed by Jeff Matasso of Specialty Acoustical Solutions out of Dallas, TX, using special acoustical materials and diffusor panels by pArtScience (another Russ Berger company). The analog and digital mastering equipment is by Legendary Audio, TC Electronic, Manley and Weiss. The customer already owned two Bowers & Wilkins 800 Series floorstanding speakers, as well as a McIntosh preamp/processor and amps previously purchased from ListenUp. For this project we did all the wiring and installed an Epson LS10000 laser projector, a 135-inch Stewart Screen, a new B&W 800 D3 Series center channel and CCM 8.5 speakers for all the surround and overhead speakers, as well as motorized shades from HunterDouglas.

A eclectic theatre room can take time and money to perfect, but when done right, it can blow you (and your friends!) away. Technology has never been better, and with the likes of a 3D TV, projector or super-sized TV, surround sound, comfy sofa and recliner chairs, you can easily bring Hollywood into your home. True film fanatics might even install a popcorn machine or fairy floss maker! Add a gaming console that can hook up to the big screen and you have yourself a fully functional media room. If you’re really serious about creating your own eclectic home theatre, spend some time researching the right home theatre systems for your needs, as well as speakers, lighting and lounge furniture. Or, seek the help of a Home Theatre Professional for advice on audio visual and home automation.

Do I need a designated room for a home cinema?

If you have space to spare, a separate cinema room can be quite the luxury, but it’s definitely not necessary to enjoy all the benefits of home theatre experience. Most people integrate their home cinema into their living room. So you don’t compromise on style, consider having your TV screen mounted to the wall, or install a projector that can be stowed away when not in use. If in your living room, try to disguise your speakers and any cables. Ceiling-integrated speakers are a great option. Otherwise, in a standalone eclectic theatre room, consider making your speakers a feature.

What should I look for in home theatre seating?

Comfort should be front of mind when looking for eclectic home theatre seating, so look for options that allow you to sink in, recline and adjust your headrest. For an authentic cinema-going experience, stadium seating is a must. Platforms and stairs, complete with LED step lighting, can mimic tiers. Leather recliner chairs are a top-end choice, or you could opt for several modular sofas and ottomans instead. To cater for those who like to watch, eat and drink at the same time, look for seating that has cup holders, or install a bar area with turnable stools.

What equipment should I add to my eclectic media room?

A projector and projector screen will lead to a more dramatic movie experience, but the picture can be slightly blurry if the equipment quality is bad. A high-definition plasma or LCD TV might not be quite as large scale, but will deliver a more crisp, clear image. You can, however, find oversized wall-mounted TVs that match the size of a projector screen – but these do cost a pretty penny. Next, enhance your cinema experience with surround sound to make the movie-goers feel like they’re right in the middle of the action. Home automation can further replicate the real cinema experience. Consider installing lights that automatically dim once the film starts, or LED strip lighting that comes on when a movie is paused. Finish your fit-out with a gaming console so you can use the big screen and comfy seats to battle your friends.
