With many people spending more time than usual at home right now, you’re likely looking for new ideas to keep yourself occupied. Whereas you might have gone out for dinner a few times a month or more before, now you are rarely doing so. Rather than going to a show, stay home, be safe, and have fun with a movie theater experience in your house.
To make watching films at home as great as possible, follow these tips.
Get a Bigger Screen
When you have a small screen, it limits your viewing experience and reminds you that you’re at home. Instead, escape into the movie theater experience by getting a large 4K TV that has excellent clarity and four times the resolution of 1080p.
Look for top brands so that you know what you’re getting is top quality and find them for less by using Best Buy coupons. These online deals on televisions and other items make creating a home theater easier as you can do so within a budget and save money to put toward other accessories, such as great audio.
Don’t Forget About the Sound
A big part of a film is the sound, whether you realize it or not. The background music can increase the intensity of a scene and evoke certain moods in the viewer. Plus, an action sequence isn’t all it can be if you don’t have great bass.
With high-quality speakers you will also be able to hear the dialogue clearly, like you would in a movie theater. A surround sound system is also terrific because then you feel like you’re in a real screening room.
Get the Right Lighting
Often, lighting isn’t a consideration until the last minute. But it needs to be given some thought so that you can create the fairytale home theater room.
If you’re asking yourself, “but isn’t a theater usually dark?” then think about how you would clean your TV screen, stereo speakers, and other elements of the entertainment center. Lighting is needed; and it can set the mood too. Perhaps you could put up sconces on the walls to light the room while also creating the movie theater atmosphere.
Get the Correct Positioning
Now that you know the elements of the perfect home theater, how do you position them to create the best experience? Firstly, make sure that you don’t put the couch too close to the screen, as this can lead to eye fatigue. Plus, you will enjoy the benefits of a better-quality picture form a 4K TV by sitting further back.
How far back, you ask? The best distance to sit from a 4K TV depends on the size of the screen. For example, a 55-inch screen is optimally viewed from 3.7ft away, while a 60-inch screen best from 4ft away.
Get Your Home Movie Theater Fairytale
During a time when the news is worrying, and anxiety levels are high, escape from the day with a home movie theater in your living room. Being able to recreate the home theater experience can bring a lot of joy to you and your family.
