Even after the Super Bowl has come and gone, these systems will give your home theater a major boost
The Super Bowl is almost upon us, with the NCAA basketball tournament and the start of baseball season following soon after. Or maybe you’re more excited about the Oscars or streaming your new favorite movie. Regardless, now’s the time to make sure you have everything you need for a superior viewing experience, whether you’re a sports fan or not.
The key to getting the most from whatever you’re watching is your home theater system. That’s where we come in. Yes, you want a big TV and killer speakers, but there’s much more that goes into creating the ideal environment for whatever you’re watching, whether it’s sports or something else. Here, then, are three systems you may not have thought of but will still make your Miami home the envy of your friends and family throughout Florida.

WHOLE HOME A/V
Despite how often we might wish for it, the world does not stop for us when we’re watching live sports. There’s little that’s more frustrating than when something interrupts you when you’re watching TV, whether it’s a phone call from a family member or a necessary trip to the bathroom. You can pause the game, but then you’re playing catch-up and aren’t sharing the live experience with everyone else.
Using distributed audio and video to create a whole home A/V system alleviates problems like these. Using a single audio or video source, you can watch and listen to that same content on any connected TV or set of speakers in your home. Come gameday, you can have every TV and every speaker tuned to the broadcast, making it easier for you to keep track of the action no matter where you are. And if someone wants to watch or listen to something different, they can change the content with a few button presses.
SHADES AND LIGHTS
You may have the greatest TV known to man, but if you’ve placed that TV in the wrong lighting environment, you still have a tough time following what’s happening on the screen. Especially with 4K and 8K TVs, proper lighting is crucial.
The best way to manage your lights while increasing convenience is with smart lighting control. Lighting control lets you control every fixture in every room from one device, making adjustments a breeze. For an even easier time, create preset scenes that combine multiple systems at once. That way, you can lower the lights and draw your motorized shades with the same command and watch the change happen in seconds.
SECURITY AND INTERCOM
Another common interruption when you’re trying to watch the big game: Late guests ringing the doorbell. What if you could see who was at the door and let them inside without leaving your couch? You can, using smart security and a virtual intercom. With these systems in place, you can see who’s at the door, talk to them and unlock the door remotely, all in seconds from your phone. That way, you’re spending more time watching what you want to watch.
With all these live sports events on the horizon, now’s the time to get your home theater ready for gameday. To learn more, call us at (305) 910-2890, leave a message in the chat box below, or visit our contact page.
