Are you tired of not being able to enjoy the much awaited weekend Big Bash game because of the poor sound system at home? Does your kids complaint about having to move the chairs around every time they sit down to watch a movie? You may have given a fair bit of thought to setting up a state of the art media room for your whole family to sit back, relax and enjoy the real entertainment experience at the comfort of your own home, but never really had a clue where to start from. This article contains a few helpful steps that you can adopt in creating the most perfect space for family entertainment within your living space.
Space concern
The very first step is to determine which room you are going to transform into a media room. Several factors must be taken into consideration when making this decision as it will be extremely difficult to relocate the whole setting once done. One of the main requirements is a larger than life smart TV which will provide the luxury of online streaming. If you are using optical fiber broadband internet facilities, check with the aid of an optical power meter whether the strength of the conducted connection is adequate for the smart device. Next, make space for the required number of couches or sofas which should ideally be placed at a point that facilitates maximum entertainment and provides the optimum acoustic advantage to the listeners.
Entertainment
Once the right space is selected, decide on the specific components you’re going to include in the media room. Is the sound system going to be a full HD, surround sound system that will elevate the movie night experience for your family? If other forms of entertainment such as a gaming system or a karaoke machine is to be set up, and if you want to provide internet facilities for those devices as well, make use of a DAC cable for faster and better connections. This way, your children will receive the arcade-level gaming experience at the comfort of their own home.
Comfort
To properly enjoy the exposure to a state of the art cinematic spectacle, a conducive surrounding must be set up. Comfy couches with a proper table to place snacks must be made available. Paint the walls with a colour of your choice and same goes for drapes and blinds that will help create the theatre like atmosphere. Artistic sound panels and socket outfits that blend with the surrounding are also great ways of utilizing the space inside the media room for decoration.
