Home Theater Systems Vs The All Purpose Media Room​

A media room stands out from a home theater due to its versatility. Designed for all types of entertainment, it easily integrates devices like iPads, gaming consoles, and more. At Smarter Homes of Austin, we craft custom spaces that combine the best features of both media rooms and home theaters, offering the perfect balance for relaxation and entertainment.

How to Decide the Best Home Theater System for Your Austin TX Home Systems

Before designing or installing your home theater, it’s best to browse the different types of home theaters available in the market and explore the different range and qualities which is best suitable for your design and room. While customization is nearly infinite, below are the typical home theater options that are available:

Basic home theater installation packages are typically designed and installed with a 4-6 seat viewing capacity and a 100″ – 120″ screen. Installation of basic ceiling speaker surround sound with a floor standing subwoofer, $10K video projector, and an AV receiver-based audio amplification system.

Enhanced home theater installation packages are typically designed and installed with a 6-8 seat viewing capacity and a 120″ – 140″ projection screen, a brighter, higher performance projector, and a higher quality sound system.

The performance home theater installation package is typically designed and installed with an 8-16 seat viewing capacity with a 12′ – 15′ wide screen, high performance projector, and THX theater-quality sound system.

The high-performance home theater installation package is typically designed and installed with an 8-20 seat viewing capacity with a 12′ – 20′ ultra wide screen, reference-grade video projector, reference-quality sound system, and acoustic design.

The ultra-high performance theater room installation is typically designed and installed to spare no expense with the very best equipment available and includes acoustic design and room design.

CREATE YOUR SMART HOME BUDGET

*The calculated home technology budget range you will receive will includes parts, labor & accessories (Tax not included)
(a round number is OK)
Numerous structures on the property: Dock, Casita, Guest House, Barn, Gate etc. Check all that apply.
Prewire installation calculations assume you would like your home fully wired for ALL home automation technologies shown throughout the budget calculator, including 'future-ready' wiring. Prewire pricing can vary substantially based on what features you would like in your home. The wiring budget is for low-voltage wiring, not for electrical.
Prewire pricing will vary based on exactly what features you would like in your home. Read this article about the importance of wiring/cabling in today's "wireless" world. Your local Smarter Homes integrator is the best resource for exact prewire pricing. Wiring budget is for low-voltage wiring only, not electrical.
Keep in mind that our modern lifestyle and our home's automation technology systems are extremely reliant on a quality network and Wi-Fi system. Most homes are moving towards enterprise-grade hardware and away from the types of network products you could buy in an office supply store or a consumer computer store. We recommend that all homeowners consider the network and Wi-Fi system to be the most important system and installation within the home.
Higher-quality sound or higher-grade architectural finished speakers can range from $5,000.00 to $10,000.00 PER ROOM
Basic background music system pricing ranges from $1,500.00 to $5,000.00 per room including all equipment, labor, and programming.
Range includes video sources such as AppleTV, a Blu-ray player, satellite receiver, and remotely-locating them for best aesthetics. A basic soundbar is included for better audio.
This is called “video distribution” and reduces the amount of audio/video equipment located at each TV location/room.
A surround sound system creates an immersive sound experience, much like a dedicated home theater room, though in a dual-purpose room such as a Family Room, Master Bedroom, etc. If you would like more than one surround system location, click on the "Add Another Surround System" button below
Typically, homeowners want to see the following areas: front of house, front door, driveway / gate, sides of house, and pool. If you are more concerned about security, you may want to add cameras for the perimeter of your property. Good-quality cameras see about 75 feet of distance on average. The high range of the budget estimate includes higher resolution cameras, better night vision, and longer surveillance recording time.
The installation of a lighting control system reduces wall clutter, allows preset lighting scenes at the push of a button, increases security through programming automation, and adds convenience.
Motorized shades add beauty, convenience, address privacy concerns, and can be used to save energy. If desired, provide your best guess on how many windows/shades you want to motorize. The higher-end of the budget range includes higher-end fabrics, large windows, and dual-roller shades (both sheer and privacy shades on one window).
For example, a house music app, an app to operate your TV, an app for lighting automation, an app for locks, an app for cameras, an app to open close garage doors & gates, etc. Or do you want to control the entire house through a single unified app that controls all the automation systems within the home?
Make your home feel larger by balancing the light between indoor and outdoor areas.
