Theater rooms

One touch. The lights dim, the screen drops, the room delivers.

A theater room is the project people remember. We design from the room out, not the box in. Proper acoustic treatment, calibrated speakers, the right projector for the throw distance, and a control system that hides all of it behind a single button.

Design philosophy

Design from the room out, not the box in.

Most theater installs start with a brochure spec and try to bend the room around it. We start with the room. The dimensions, the surfaces, the seating distance, the throw, the ambient light. Then we pick the gear that matches.

  • Seating distance and screen size mapped to the room
  • Reflective surfaces treated, not ignored
  • Speaker placement that matches the seating, not the wall
  • Cable runs planned before the drywall goes up

What goes in the room

Six things, in the order they get decided.

Every theater room is different, but the conversation moves in roughly the same order. Picture, then sound, then control, then everything that supports them.

Projection

4K and 8K projectors from Sony and JVC. Sized to the throw distance. Paired with the right screen gain for your ambient light.

Audio

Sonos, JBL, Episode, and reference theater audio. In-wall, in-ceiling, or freestanding. Calibrated for the seats, not the showroom.

Lighting scenes

Lutron lighting scenes tied to playback. Press play and the room dims. Press pause and it eases back up.

Acoustic treatment

Acoustic panels, bass traps, riser builds. Done with finishes that match the room, not a recording studio.

Seating

Theater seating sized to the room. Risers when the geometry calls for it. Real comfort, not foam-on-a-frame.

One-touch control

Josh.ai, Eve, or a dedicated remote. One button starts the movie. Another sends the room back to neutral.

"A theater room is the project people remember."
Ernst, Owner
How a theater project runs

Four steps. No surprises.

01

Free consultation

We walk the room, take measurements, and ask what the room is supposed to feel like.

02

Design and proposal

A clear scope: gear list, layout, network plan, lighting plan, and price.

03

Build and install

Cable runs, mounting, speaker placement, projector alignment, and a calibrated commissioning pass.

04

Tune and support

Audio and video calibration, scene programming, remote setup, and ongoing support after the truck leaves.

Get started

Tell us about the room. We will tell you what it can be.

Free in-home consultations across Madison, Milwaukee, and the Rockford and northwest Chicago suburbs. New builds, remodels, and retrofits all welcome.
