Everything for Everyone

by Thoughtful Integrations

Lights can change right from the Control4 touchscreen to the colors of the owners’ favorite sports team.

This is definitely the place to be for a family that’s stuck at home.

The team at Thoughtful Integrations explains: “Whether the use was for sports, movies, gaming, music, or any other entertainment choice, everything was built to exceed expectations.

Performance of this room was based on “at above” standards set by manufacturers Rayva, Anthem, Triad, Sony, Kaleidescape, Control4, Screen Innovations, Dolby, and ISF.

Teaming up with Rayva for the acoustic treatment of the room was a key to gaining proper acoustics in an acoustically challenged room. Closely following CEDIA white papers, best practices, and manufacturer guidelines and suggestions allowed this theater to be a strong example of the total shared knowledge of the CEDIA community with an insight to the excellence of knowledge cooperation.

“The theme of this theater was to create a space where any resident of the home can enjoy their favorite digital pastime.”

If a movie’s the choice, a 4K Sony projector lights up the Screen Innovations display, and as Thoughtful Integrations notes, the Jaymar DBox seats sync their movements to the action onscreen to “create an immersive environment where the viewer feels like they are in the middle of the movie.” For sports, while the sights and sounds are amazing, the ability to change the lights right from the Control4 touchscreen to the colors of the owners’ favorite team was key.

“Gaming in this room is next level through the intelligent use of the 4K Xbox One,” explains the integrator, and the room can easily become a “concert hall at home.” “Usage of new Dolby Atmos Mastered audio content (and several other formats) at the users fingertips makes this the concert venue you’ve always dreamed of.” A 7.4.4 Dolby Atmos immersive audio package brings terrific sound no matter what content is pumping through the speakers.
