A home theater should be installed by a specialist who is simultaneously versed in technology and design. The zone where the home theater is placed (whether it is a separate room or part of the living room) should be organized by a qualified specialist.
Home cinema is a functional technique and it should not just look beautiful in the apartment – it should work correctly, bringing its viewer the maximum pleasure. And this is a relatively new task that all modern designers should learn to cope with.
This is especially important if the family invested in equipment for a home theater, because, incorrectly placing it in the interior, you can easily ruin a lot of its functions or make the impression of them less worthy.
There are a number of rules that help install the home theater on their own. Firstly, it is necessary to buy equipment for your apartment, and the selection of screens is especially important, because some take huge expensive TVs from which it is impossible to enjoy if the sofa or chair is too close. Home cinemas are expensive, so make sure you take devices that are appropriate for your apartment. Otherwise, you just throw money down the wind.
Usually the TV is hung on the wall at that point, the review of which is not difficult from two opposite corners of the room. There is a correlation between the size of the screen and the distance to it, which is required to be observed when viewing. However, in the selection of such screens today there are also other parameters, such as the resolution and type of screen. The maximum proximity to the screen will depend on this, in which the picture will not worsen. Approximately, the calculation of the distance between the TV and the place where the viewer sits is carried out according to the formula: the diagonal of the screen multiplied by 1.5. The resulting figure is the distance that the screen should be removed from the chair of the viewer.
Most of all the effect of watching a movie spoils the improper lighting and glare. People try to install blinds on the windows in rooms where home cinemas are mounted. In addition, separate lamps of muffled light or dimmers are mounted.
The correct chair or sofa not only provide comfort, but also enhance the impression of viewing. The sofa is one of the most ideal solutions when it comes to home theater. If you bought a TV with 3D function, it is better to buy a sofa with a straight back. Otherwise, the picture may be distorted when you move.
Particular attention should be paid to the speakers. Their location allows you to distribute sound around the room evenly. The distance of two speakers from the TV should be about half the less than the distance between the viewer and the TV.
High -quality sound strengthens the experience from watching TV. Thus, it is good to have a high -quality subwoofer. And no less important where you place the subwoofers (it is not recommended to install them in a place close to the walls and other furniture).
Be sure to calibrate your TV under your room. Hire a specialist or read the instructions.
It is also important to understand that your home is not a cinema. To make a cinema out of the room, you need to invest quite big money in the interior.
