A Screen Upgrade

When it comes to modern visuals, size does matter. Imagine the sheer grandeur of a 98-inch flat panel dominating your home media room or the sleek sophistication of a Sony ultra-short throw projector casting cinematic glory onto a 10-foot screen. These screens are a portal to breathtaking visual experiences. Whether you're watching a classic film, the latest 4K documentary, or this summer's Paris Olympics, the clarity, color, and sheer scale of these screens ensure an immersive experience that's second to none.

Screen Tiling

Why settle for one view when you can have multiple? Screen tiling is your answer to a dynamic viewing experience. Perfect for sports enthusiasts and news buffs alike, this feature allows you to display various video feeds simultaneously. Imagine catching every play of the big game while keeping an eye on the stock market, all on one expansive screen.

Immersive Audio

If the soul of any media room is its sound system, then nothing encapsulates this better than Dolby Atmos. This groundbreaking audio technology envelopes you in a soundscape that's not just heard but felt. Upgrading to Dolby Atmos means every note, dialogue, and sound effect is rendered with astonishing clarity and depth. A Dolby Atmos surround audio system creates a three-dimensional sound field that engulfs you, transporting you into the action and story. 

Lighting Control

Lighting plays a pivotal role in crafting the right ambiance for entertainment. Your Southampton home media room can be transformed with the touch of a button, thanks to advanced lighting control systems. You can create lighting scenes that automatically adjust to the mood of the movie, or dim lights as the evening progresses, all seamlessly integrated with your entertainment setup. Whether it's a vibrant gathering or a cozy movie night, the right lighting sets the tone, making every moment in your media room an experience.

Motorized Shades

Unless your media space is entirely windowless, controlling natural light is essential for the perfect media room experience. Enter motorized shades—the epitome of convenience and elegance. With a simple command, these shades adjust to your preferences, balancing natural light and privacy seamlessly. During a daytime screening, they darken the room for optimal viewing. In the evening, they retract, revealing starlit Southampton skies. Pair them with your lighting control and home automation systems to create an ambiance that shifts effortlessly from day to night, ensuring your media room is always in harmony with the time of day and mood.
