Discovering Commercial-Quality Home Theater Systems

When watching a film delivered from the latest 4K laser projectors, the visuals can leave you spellbound. Vibrant yet natural colors, superior contrast, and minute details can transport you into the image on the screen. It is, however, the audio that brings life to the scene, defines the story, and creates a sense of realism.

The director, Danny Boyle, said, “The truth is, for me, it’s obvious that 70, 80 percent of a movie is sound.”

Thanks to today’s advancements in technology and home theater systems, you can experience the most realistic sound available—an audio system that rivals commercial venues. Let’s explore today’s surround sound system and what it brings to home entertainment in Dayton, OH.

Engaged in the Moment

The rumble of an engine coming to life, the crash of a wave, or the soft whisper of a shared secret can define the moment a film’s course changes direction. It’s the sound that provides the emotional impact and the energy. 

Every sound, from the dialogue to the special effects and soundtrack, must be accurately reproduced, including the deepest bass and the highest treble. Our audio experts at Beacon Home Audio Video Systems analyze a room’s acoustics before strategically installing and calibrating in-wall and in-ceiling speakers. These speakers deliver the lifelike Dolby Atmos surround sound—object-based audio that provides the ultimate realism.

Dolby Atmos and Home Theaters

Dolby Atmos provides a 3D multi-dimensional sound field that encapsulates you, placing you in the center of the action. From the storm erupting overhead to the voices behind you and the flight of the bird in front of you, you are engulfed in the moment. 

This immersive experience is achieved through a sound system that surpasses channels and treats audio as an object, placing and moving it within the 3D sphere. With its rise in popularity, you can find AV receivers with built-in Dolby Atmos technology and limitless compatible movies and soundtracks.

Once you hear a movie in Dolby Atmos, nothing will compare. 

The Explosive Bass

The impactful bass is another essential element of your home theater’s immersive experience. Multiple subwoofers deliver this all-empowering audio that you can feel as well as hear. Getting the sound right requires experimentation and acoustic treatments, including bass traps that reduce reverberation and eliminate reflections.

The Outcome

When all the elements come together, including the high-fidelity speakers, acoustic paneling, placement, and calibration, you experience a level of sound that transports you to another place in time. Whether hearing the wind whip around you on a mountain peak or a storm raging around and above you out on a ship at sea, you’re no longer in a space contained by four walls but immersed in the moment.
