3 of the Most Common Misconceptions About Home Theater Setups

Are you prepared for your next home theater project?

If you’re a homeowner in the Minnetonka, MN area or beyond and you’re looking to add a private cinema to your property (or you’re looking to update your existing theater), you should know this:

What you might think about residential theaters might not be entirely accurate.

Below, we explore three of the most common misconceptions about home theater setups – so that you can get the most out of your property’s theater installation.

Just keep reading to find out more.

MISCONCEPTION NO. 1) YOUR HOME THEATER NEEDS TO BE LIKE A COMMERCIAL CINEMA.

Some people might think a private cinema has to look and operate exactly like that of a commercial theater.

Sure, you can design a home theater to model after your local cinema – but it doesn’t have to be that way. The whole point is to improve on the experience.

In fact, your theater can be designed to your family’s wants!

Perhaps you want your theater to have a specific theme to it – like from a TV show or your favorite movie. Or maybe you want to add a bar or a pool table to your space, so it serves multiple purposes.

The fact is, you’ll want to have a reason to spend time in your home theater. With a custom design that you and your family will love, you’ll end up with your perfect space.

MISCONCEPTION NO. 2) A HOME THEATER IS ONLY FOR MOVIE-WATCHING.

We touched on this in the section above.

As we said earlier, you can add several components to your home theater setup so that it’s the ultimate entertainment space for you and your family.

But your private cinema doesn’t only have to be dedicated to watching movies, either.

In fact, your theater easily can support video game content, media-streaming devices and more – even your cable or satellite TV.

That means you can host the best gaming night or just relax and watch Netflix or Hulu, right from your home theater.

MISCONCEPTION NO. 3) YOU CAN GET THE MOST OUT OF YOUR THEATER ON YOUR OWN.

We get it. You can take a lot of pride in building a private cinema on your own.

Even if you have a general idea of what you’re doing, though, it’s best you work with a professional. Why?

Not only can your local home theater company expertly install every component of your cinema (customized to your wants), but it also can provide ongoing maintenance and support.

It even can install an integrated control system for you to manage your cinema’s technology efficiently.

Should anything ever go wrong with your theater, you can have access to instant support, as well. And you can quickly enjoy your devices’ latest software updates.

While a DIY project might sound appealing at first, you’ll enjoy your theater more through an expert installation.
