Home Theater Systems Need a Professional’s Touch
Go Beyond DIY For Your Next Home Entertainment System Upgrade
Many homeowners mistakenly believe a home theater upgrade entails buying a new big-screen TV and sound system and calling it a day. In actuality, quite a bit of planning goes into a fully immersive movie and TV-watching experience if you want it to rival - or even exceed - the sound and picture quality found at the local movie cineplex.
Whether you’re a TV show binger or a movie marathoner, we have the perfect solution for your McAllen, TX, home. Keep reading below to learn how professionally-installed home theater systems can change how you entertain.

More Than a Big Screen TV
The size of your large-format display matters in a home theater space. Too small, and the viewer is left squinting or craning their neck towards a less-than-ideal-sized screen. Too large, and they’re forced to turn their heads up, down, or side-to-side to view the scene in its entirety.
When you work with a professional home theater systems expert like D-Tronics Home & Business, you partner with a team that knows the science behind the perfect display size, seat spacing, and other intricate component and wiring details. Our team can help you determine the best projector and projection screen combination or TV display that would best suit your viewing desires as well as your budget and space needs.
Finding the Best Seats in the House
Once the screen size and viewing distance from the screen are determined, we conduct a sightline assessment to ensure the vertical viewing angle is on-axis within five degrees for primary viewing seats. Altogether, every viewer should have a vertical viewing angle of no more than 15-degrees. This means packing in several recliners may not be the best fit for your home theater space; instead, consider tiered rows of seating that allows more people to see the entire screen without forcing them to sit in an odd location on the side of the room.
Other Considerations
In addition to the AV system components, wiring, installations, and seating, acoustic treatment is likely needed for your upgraded home theater room. Dampening ambient noise from elsewhere in your home and adding additional bends in your HVAC ductwork to slow down the audible air movement through vents are other considerations that a professional AV team must make.
