This beautiful home theater gives up to twelve people a home cinema experience they will never forget. All speakers are hidden behind the front screen wall and behind acoustically transparent fabric on the side and rear walls. Meridian electronics supply amazing sound and the large, immersive picture is sure to draw you in. Four subwoofers provide earth-shaking bass performance and give even seat-to-seat bass performance, something most home theaters sorely lack. Control of audio/video, lighting, the fiberoptic ceiling, climate, and motorized proscenium drapes are with Crestron home automation controls.

This high-end screening room won the CEDIA/HGTV Best Home Theater award for 2012. Detailed acoustic analysis and layout design by Paradise Theater in conjunction with DSI Entertainment Systems results in a room that doubles as a reference home theater and audiophile listening room. Electronics by JBL Synthesis and Mark Levinson and speakers by Revel and Velodyne. The Digital Projection Inc video projector is hidden in an air-conditioned sound-proofed recess at the rear of the room so as not to detract visually from the room’s modern interior aesthetic and to cut down on noise.

Elegant home theaters designed to compliment the English pub decor in the rest of the basement. This project won a National award from NARI. Designed & fabricated in the In-House Cabinet shop of Media Rooms Inc. Our goal was to not have any audio video components visible in the room. In addition to the audio and video system, we designed and fabricated (in-house) all of the interior elements including: acoustical wall panels, custom columns, wood millwork, proscenium (around the video screen) and custom counter in the rear of the theater room. We also installed a tin ceiling and supplied the carpet and chairs. We located the audio video components in an in-wall closet and fabricated an acoustical panel door to hide the components from view. The left and right front speakers were built into the decorative columns behind the acoustically transparent fabric. The center channel and subwoofers were built into the proscenium directly behind and below the screen. The side speakers are placed in one of the side decorative columns and the rear speakers were placed in the ceiling. Decorative acoustic panels were placed throughout the room to match the aesthetic and add absorption. We installed wood trim around the panels to add to the elegance of the room.
