THE BEST PLACE TO BEGIN IS BY WORKING WITH EXPERTS WHO WILL ASK YOU POINTED AND PERTINENT QUESTIONS
FROM THE STARTING POINT
Identify the room or area for your home theater.
Use a custom home theater company for planning, equipment and advice.
Decide on the room’s purpose. Will it include a pool table or other items?
Determine the budget. Theater rooms can cost from $8,000 to $10,000 for the most basic equipment and furnishings.
Get the room’s measurements and layout before you shop.
Decide on audio/speaker placement. Should you hear sound in other rooms?
Decide on lighting. The room will need to be fairly dark. How will you adjust this?
Do you want to see or conceal the audio/video equipment?
Do you wan one remote to control all aspects of the room?
Allow 30–45 days to deliver and intall equipment. Furniture can take longer.

Jim Winkler, owner, Leather Shoppes, Inc.
“You can do two rows of seating for that true, movie theater effect.
Many people even put in full recliners or recliners on the ends. One
of the most popular items continues to be leather sofas in semi-circle
or cur ved shapes. They make it easy for movie viewing.
“One of the better items to get, though, is the all-in-one remote
control. A lot of customers don’t like having multiple remotes. We
offer programmable remotes with color-touch screens. It can control
the movie, the lights…ever ything. And we can program it to make
it simple to use.”
