Got Surround Sound? You’ll Be So Glad

The cinematic experience is not just about seeing a film on a giant screen; it's just as much about the sound. Watch an epic movie on a huge screen with less-than-stellar sound, and you will be underwhelmed. Watch that movie with a state-of-the-art Dolby Atmos surround system, and you'll be transported into that magic state of the suspension of disbelief. 

Now, not every movie you'll watch in your home theater will knock your socks off. Some dramas are very dialogue-oriented and not full of action and complex audio, for instance. But some will stretch the limits of your home theater system and make you glad you opted for that new Dolby Atmos surround system. Here are four of the best movies for surround sound to watch in your Chicago, IL, home cinema. Oh, and the visuals are pretty darn good too.

With a professionally installed home theater system for your Chicago home, you can bring the best elements of the cinema to you instead of needing to brave the multiplex. It’s easier than you might think, and we can walk you through everything you need.  Here are 3 elements that make your at-home movie-going experience superior.

With all the time spent at home during the pandemic, few things are in more demand in Illinois than a home theater. With the plethora of content available over streaming services like Netflix and a lack of reasons to head out to an actual theater, a home cinema is an excellent investment for home entertainment. 

While almost any space can be turned into a home cinema, planning for one from the start when remodeling or building makes it far more manageable and less expensive to integrate a home theater system. Home theater systems involve many details, from seating to screens, projectors, speakers, sources and amplifiers, cabling, acoustics and more! Understanding what’s involved and how to plan a home theater space makes it much easier for your clients to get the home cinema they envision for their new home. Keep reading for more details below.
