We built this converted attic space into a theater room for a couple who loves action movies and concerts. They wanted to find a way to keep their kids at home instead of always at friends’ houses. We mapped out the ideal screen size for the seating arrangement and installed a 127” diagonal 2.40 acoustically transparent Stewart Filmscreen. The main left, right, and center JBL Synthesis speakers are behind the screen for a true cinematic experience.

The remaining Atmos and surround speakers are all Revel architectural models that disappear in the room. 3 SVS subwoofers placed around the room provide powerful bass impact for all those action movies. A top of the line Anthem receiver and extra 3 channel power amp power everything, and ARC (Anthem Room Correction) technology makes the room sound incredible. Kinetics acoustic panels damp out reflections enabling all of those subtle details to shine. The Sony projector is perfect for this screen size with a 4K picture quality that looks absolutely amazing in this room. For all-around great signal quality, we used AudioQuest cables to connect the components. Transparent InWall Cable was used to wire all the speakers. A Control 4 remote and lighting control system is the final touch for this great space.
