Three Big Things that Impact Home Theater Audio Performance

What’s more important, image quality or sound quality? When you’re talking about a home theater, it should be both. When you go to a movie theater, you have a set of expectations; both the visuals and the sound should immerse you in the story. When bringing the cinema experience home, it should be the same – a giant screen with sound that leaves you wanting is an unsatisfying mismatch.

Many factors can affect the audio quality in a home theater, from the room layout, materials, seating, electronics, speakers, and more. We’re going to break those down into three broad areas so you can be better informed as you think about a new or upgraded home theater system for your Henderson, NV home.

Create a Multipurpose Entertainment Space Beyond Movies

Do you live a formal or informal lifestyle? Las Vegas and Nevada, generally, are places for less formality. Lifestyles here are only bound by your imagination and interests. If you lean to the informal in the way you live and entertain, chances are your home is a reflection of that attitude.

If you are considering a home theater installation for your Las Vegas home, you’re likely to want that space to be more than just a dedicated room for watching movies. And you’d be in the majority, as today’s home theater designs tend to be less formal and more adaptable to multiple uses. Keep reading below to explore four ideas to get the most bang for your entertainment buck from your home theater.

Outdoor Music Makes Everything More Fun Outside

Las Vegas seemingly has two seasons, cold and hot. We’re only kidding; outside of the hot desert summers, the weather is relatively mild and pleasant the rest of the year. And that means you can enjoy an outdoor lifestyle at home most times of the year. And the summer? It's perfect for pool time; just add sunscreen. 

With all that time outdoors, you might want to add a piece of outdoor entertainment that makes any time of the year, day or night, more fun – outdoor sound. And we have just the solution for that, whether your musical taste runs to classical or hip-hop.

One of our favorite outdoor audio brands is Coastal Source, as their range of speakers features robust build quality and powerful performance. Read on below to learn more on amping up your outdoor spaces with Coastal Source. 

How Much Do You Enjoy Pulling Wire Through Walls?

Some people are diehard do-it-yourselfers. There's nothing they can't do with a few things from Amazon or a trip to Home Depot. Install a whole-home audio system? No problem. Start those holes in the drywall now. 

You may not be a DIYer of this magnitude, but you may do some things yourself. You may not need a professional to mount your new 65-inch OLED TV. You might not need help figuring out the programming for an intelligent remote control. 

On the other hand, some audio-visual installation projects can get complicated. And while you could do them given enough time, patience, and newly acquired YouTube skills, you have better things to do. Some AV projects are better left to professionals, and you'll enjoy the finished product in your Las Vegas, NV home without the headaches and sweating. Here are three projects which we think are better left to people that do them every day.
