Build Your Dream Home Theater in Kansas City
Become immersed in the sights and sounds of your own home theater system.
Transform Your Space into a Luxury Home Theater
Relax and enjoy the show without the hassle of loud crowds, limited showtimes, or poor viewing angles. Experience movies in a perfect viewing environment with a private theater expertly designed to meet your needs.
Pull up your favorite movies, TV shows, or sports on larger-than-life displays with immersive surround sound that places you right in the middle of the action. From Hollywood classics to new releases, everything looks and sounds better in your home theater.
What’s in a Home Theater Installation?
While the display often steals the spotlight, the perfect home theater design involves many components working together.
Lighting
A light-controlled room is ideal for your theater, but complete darkness can strain your eyes and cause discomfort. Dimmed overhead lights or wall sconces create the perfect ambiance for movie night, while LED strip lights and task lamps enhance safety and visibility as you navigate the aisle. A layered lighting design offers subtle illumination during movies and versatility for other activities like video games or watching sports.
Acoustical Treatments
Transform your home theater into an entertainment oasis with acoustical treatments that isolate the room from the rest of the house. Enjoy superior sound quality that surpasses commercial theaters, free from reverberations or echoes. Optimize the space to hear every moment as if you're part of the action. Our range of acoustic treatments not only targets audio reflections for an even, natural soundscape but also adds a stylistic touch that enhances your overall theater design.
Smart Home Control
Unify all technology components into one seamless control system to simplify how you use your home theater. Effortlessly manage lights, home audio, video, climate, and more from a dedicated touchpad, mobile app, or sleek remote. For frequent activities like movie nights, create preset scenes accessible with a single button press. With one touch, the lights dim, the projector powers on, the screen drops down, and your favorite streaming service appears.
Sound
Indulge in immersive movie soundtracks with a professional surround sound installation. High-end loudspeakers are strategically placed throughout the room to deliver crystal-clear sound from every direction. Experience the power of explosions reverberating through the room and the subtle sound of footsteps as if they’re right behind you. Discreetly installed in-ceiling and in-wall speakers ensure you enjoy the ultimate movie-watching experience without intrusive technology disrupting the cinematic aesthetic.
Projectors
Embrace the classic big-screen cinema feel with a 4K projector in your home theater installation. Enjoy lifelike, larger-than-life images that transport you directly into your movies in your Kansas City-area home. Experience unprecedented color, contrast, and black levels that make it feel like you're looking through a window rather than at a screen. Stream the latest movie releases, enjoy football Sunday, or binge-watch the latest TV series with stunning visuals that offer an unparalleled viewing experience.
Screens
Upgrade your viewing experience by pairing your projector with an ambient light-rejecting screen. These screens absorb only the light from your projector, creating bright images with rich colors even in less-than-perfect darkness. Available in various sizes, our experts will guide you to the best choice for your space. Opt for a retractable screen if you desire a multi-purpose environment where your display can be hidden when not in use.
Custom Seating
Settle in for a movie marathon with custom home theater seating that combines style and comfort. Choose from a wide array of models and fabric options, including sleek leather loungers and ultra-soft recliners. Available in various colors and modular systems, we can design the perfect setup for your preferences. Enhance your theater experience with custom seating accessories such as retractable arms, cup holders, tray tables, touch screen mounts, reading lights, lumbar pillows, and more.
Star Ceilings
Create an enchanting sky full of stars in your home theater with fiber optic star ceiling panels. These glimmering ceilings can be customized to the ideal brightness and color to create a magical atmosphere. Star ceilings also offer practical benefits, serving as acoustic treatments to enhance sound quality throughout your theater.
