The Latest Technology Brings Better Content and AV Performance

It’s hard to imagine, but there was a time when home theater sound was mono, coming from one single space, a flat and narrow reproduction of sound. Dolby Stereo broke through the ranks with the release of Star Wars in 1977 but didn't make it into home theaters until almost a decade later. At the same time, cutting-edge technology consisted of 19-inch high-resolution color TVs.

Times have certainly changed. Today, we have 4K and 8K screen resolutions and 4K HDR laser projectors. The first 4K Blu-ray discs came out in 2016, and our home theater receivers can now handle side, rear, front, and overhead speakers plus subwoofers, delivering truly immersive audio. In 2022, many home theaters surpass the best movie theaters in town. 

Technology continues to advance. Let’s look at the latest trends and how home theater installations have changed in Salt Lake City, UT in recent years. 

Create a Space in Your Home for Movies, Music, and Gaming

There's a tremendous difference between enjoying a movie and being immersed in a cinematic home theater experience. Some homeowners hesitate to delve into the home theater arena, wondering if the room will rarely be used. But the definition of a home theater installation is different for every home and family in Park City, UT. 

For some, it's a dedicated room with tiered seating and reclining chairs with LED lighted cup holders. A 100-inch screen descends from the ceiling, and in-wall and in-ceiling speakers envelop the viewers in surround sound. 

For others, it's a multi-use media room with a hidden 4K UHD TV, comfy, plush sofas, a gaming chair, maybe a pool table, and AV equipment that optimizes music, gaming, and movie nights. Every person defines an exceptional home theater experience differently than the next. 

At AMT Integration, we've installed countless home theaters, and if there's one thing we can attest to, it's that this room almost always becomes one of the family's favorites.
