Discover How You Can Revel in The Legacy and Magic of Movies Right in Your House

Movies have been a cultural force for over 125 years, yet their earliest days are murky and heavily debated. When asked who invented filmmaking, the most common response is Thomas Edison, or if you are someone who dug a bit deeper, you might make a passing reference to the Lumiere brothers.   

Louis Le Prince’s vision, breakthrough technology, and untimely disappearance are storylines right out of a modern movie plot.

EXPLORE THE ELEMENTS THAT MAKE THE ULTIMATE HOME THEATER EXPERIENCE

Now more than ever, we are focusing on the home. With our need to spend more time within the confines of our houses, smart technology that can enhance our lifestyles has become critically important. Entertainment, especially movies, are a big part of distracting us from day-to-day concerns.

In response to this need, a major studio, Warner Brothers, has begun releasing first-run films to home streaming at the same time they are in theaters. While using a media room’s flat panel display and high-end audio to watch these films is doable, it lacks the ambiance and authentic sound and vision of a theater. The cinema experience is an important component to movie viewing, a place where we focus solely on the story unfolding before us on the screen.

A home theater installation brings the best elements of a movie house and makes it better. The systems installed can match and often exceed the quality of your local Austin, TX multiplex.
