Upgrade Your Space with the Latest Home Theater Technology

Experience the Latest and Greatest in Home Theater Technology

It wasn’t long ago that moviegoers had to go to the theater to experience the pinnacle of immersive entertainment. While that’s still an option, the home theater experience has advanced significantly in recent years, allowing people to enjoy cinema-quality visuals and sound from the comfort of their own homes.

Thanks to innovations in AV technology, today's home theaters can not only rival but often surpass the commercial theater experience—provided they're equipped with the right gear. Unsurprisingly, demand for high-performance home theaters has continued to rise, especially here in Tennessee.

If you’re considering a home theater for your Nashville home or want to upgrade your existing entertainment space, read on to discover cutting-edge technologies that will transform how you experience movies, shows, and games in 2024.

8K Resolution: Unmatched Visual Detail

8K TVs and projectors are now readily available, and 8K content is steadily growing, making it a must-have for anyone serious about visual clarity. With four times the resolution of 4K displays, 8K offers unprecedented detail and realism, ideal for larger screens commonly used in home theaters. Even if the content you're watching isn’t in native 8K, today’s advanced upscaling technology ensures a sharper, more lifelike image.

For cinema and gaming enthusiasts, 8K is a future-proof investment that enhances every viewing experience in your home theater.

IMAX Enhanced: Bringing the Big Screen Home

Love the breathtaking visuals of IMAX movies? You can bring IMAX’s signature picture and scale to your home theater through a Sony premium 4K HDR projector. Sony premium home theater projectors are IMAX Enhanced, enabling them to deliver bigger and better visuals of IMAX-compatible content. Sony IMAX Enhanced projectors display the expanded ratio of IMAX movies while delivering sharp and vivid 4K HDR images so you can enjoy IMAX Enhanced movies to the fullest at home.

Dolby Atmos Surround Sound and FlexConnect

Dolby Atmos 3D surround sound used to be reserved for commercial theaters, but now you can experience it at home with the right speaker setup and compatible content! Dolby Atmos is a surround sound format that frees audio from channels so that it can move freely above and around you.

When a car zooms from the left to the right of the screen, you’ll hear it zip past you as if you’re there in the scene. Likewise, a plane flying overhead will sound like it’s right above you. Not only does Dolby Atmos make movies and shows more immersive, but it also transforms the way you play video games by allowing you to precisely hear where enemies’ footsteps and other noises are coming from.

For homeowners who have a unique theater room configuration, the Dolby Atmos FlexConnect is a game changer. Announced in 2023, this technology allows users to place wireless speakers anywhere in a room, and FlexConnect adjusts the sound to provide an immersive Dolby Atmos experience. This technology is a great option for Nashville homeowners who want a flexible home theater audio system.

One Remote for Everything

When you go to the movies, you don’t have to fuss with power buttons, volume, and input settings. Instead, you sit down and enjoy the show. Home theaters should offer the same ease! While theater systems can be complex, control is effortless when everything is integrated into a Control4 system.

Control4 simplifies and enhances your home entertainment by connecting your AV equipment, lights, shades, thermostat, and more into one platform. Using one remote or touchscreen, you can wrangle your AV inputs and devices with a swift button press. Then your lights and shades can automatically dim and close in response to that button press, setting the scene for movie night.
