Media Room
Media Room Design and Installation Services for Connecticut and New York Smart Homes
Your family room gone high-tech.
In fact, when Lifetronic Systems is done installing your media-room components, friends might not even know we’ve been there except for your spanking new state-of-the-art smart TV. Of course, even that can be disguised behind a mirror or a motorized piece of artwork.
Speaker technology is so advanced, resulting in theater-like surround sound strategically placed around your room. Some speakers are inserted into the ceiling, angled to provide intense sound no matter where you sit in the room. We even offer invisible speakers mounted on fiber panels that completely disappear when painted or papered.
Customized Media Room Design
While the specific features of a home media room can vary based on personal preferences and budget, here are some primary features we commonly include in our clients’ well-equipped media rooms:
Large Display or Projection System
This can include a high-definition television (HDTV) or a projector and projection screen that’s chosen based on the room size and desired viewing experience.
Surround Sound System
A surround sound system typically includes multiple speakers strategically positioned around the room to create a multidimensional audio experience.
Acoustic Treatment
Acoustic treatments can include the use of acoustic panels, diffusers, bass traps, and other sound-absorbing materials to enhance audio clarity and create a more immersive experience.
Comfortable Seating
Options can range from plush sofas and recliners to dedicated home theater seating with features like cup holders, built-in recliners, and adjustable headrests.
Lighting Control
Installing dimmable lights or automated lighting systems allows you to adjust the lighting levels to suit different activities and preferences. You can also consider blackout curtains or blinds to block out external light sources and minimize glare.
Media Sources & Streaming Devices
A home media room should have access to various media sources and streaming devices, including Blu-ray players, media servers, gaming consoles, streaming devices (e.g., Apple TV, Roku), or dedicated media players.
Streamlined media room control.
A professional media room installation includes an integrated control system that allows you to manage and control various aspects of your home media room seamlessly. With unlimited options, the system can include a universal remote control, a smart home hub, or a mobile app that centralizes control over audio, video, lighting, and other room features. This simplifies the operation of multiple devices and enhances the user experience, for example:
- One tap from your smartphone, tablet, or easy-to-use remote dims the lights, closes the shades, and starts your TV.
- Another touch starts the music, ignites the gas fireplace and dims the lights for a romantic evening alone or a cozy setting with friends.
- You can even send HD video to any room in your home or watch video from many sources: Apple TVs, Roku boxes, media players, hard drives, portable devices.
A highly desirable part of this control system is that the system’s brain is completely hidden and out-of-sight.
