TV or Projector Screens: Choose the Best Option for Your Space
When it comes to creating a home cinema, the screen is the focal point of the entire experience. At AML Installations, we offer professional installation of both high-definition TVs and projector screens, depending on your space and preferences.
For those with smaller or mid-sized rooms, a large 4K or OLED TV can deliver breathtaking picture quality, with deep contrasts and vibrant colours. Modern TVs come in sizes ranging from 55″ to 85″ and beyond, providing a crisp, sharp image that works perfectly for movies, sports, and gaming. Our team ensures your TV is wall-mounted securely and positioned at the optimal height for a comfortable viewing experience, with all cables hidden for a clean and sleek finish.
For larger rooms or dedicated home theatres, a projector screen may be the ideal choice. A projector setup offers a truly cinematic experience, allowing you to enjoy massive screen sizes that can easily exceed 100 inches. Combined with a 4K or HD projector, you’ll get crystal-clear visuals that rival the quality of a commercial cinema. We’ll help you choose the right screen and projector for your space, ensuring the best possible image quality, even in rooms with ambient light.
Sonos Integration: Seamless Sound for Every Room
A great home cinema is more than just picture quality; the audio is equally important. That’s why integrating a Sonos sound system into your home cinema can take your entertainment to the next level. Known for its powerful, high-fidelity sound, Sonos provides a wireless solution that seamlessly fits into any home cinema setup, whether you’re watching a blockbuster movie or listening to music.
Sonos speakers are wireless and modular, meaning you can easily integrate them into your home cinema system without worrying about messy cables or complex wiring. You can start with just a sound bar, like the Sonos Arc, and expand the system over time by adding subwoofers and rear speakers for a more immersive experience. Sonos also integrates with popular music streaming services, allowing you to play your favourite tunes in the same room, or across the entire house, with multi-room audio functionality.
Best of all, Sonos is compatible with smart home systems, enabling you to control your entire home cinema system via your smartphone or voice commands through Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant.
Dolby Atmos: Experience Immersive 3D Sound
For the ultimate home cinema experience, nothing compares to Dolby Atmos. This state-of-the-art audio technology generates a three-dimensional soundscape, giving you the ability to hear every aspect of a movie or show precisely as intended by the creators. Whether it’s a plane flying overhead, raindrops falling around you, or dialogue that feels like it’s happening right in front of you, Dolby Atmos brings you deeper into the story by immersing you in a world of sound.
Dolby Atmos works by adding height channels to traditional surround sound systems, enabling sound to move around the room in all directions. Whether you choose a sound bar like the Sonos Arc or a more advanced speaker setup, our expert installers will configure your system for maximum effect, so you get the full benefit of this revolutionary audio experience. We’ll strategically position your speakers to create an immersive sound field that surrounds you from every angle.
5.1 and 7.1 Surround Sound: Creating the Perfect Audio Environment
When it comes to surround sound systems, the two most popular configurations are 5.1 and 7.1, referring to the number of speakers and subwoofers involved. At AML Installations, we provide both options, ensuring that your home cinema has the right setup to deliver rich, immersive sound.
A 5.1 surround sound system includes five speakers and one subwoofer. This configuration is perfect for smaller rooms or those looking for a more budget-friendly option. Placing the speakers around the room, typically with two in the front, two in the back, and one centre speaker, provides a balanced and immersive sound experience.
For larger spaces or more advanced setups, a 7.1 surround sound system adds two additional speakers, typically positioned along the sides of the room, creating a more enveloping audio environment. The added speakers provide more depth to the sound, enhancing the experience of watching movies, TV shows, or playing games. Integrating both 5.1 and 7.1 systems with Dolby Atmos enhances the sound experience, creating an even more immersive environment.
Our team will help you choose the best speaker setup for your space and preferences, considering factors like room size, seating arrangement, and acoustic properties. With every installation, we make sure to place all speakers discreetly and hide cabling, maintaining a clean and modern aesthetic in your home cinema.
Home Automation Integration: Control at Your Fingertips
A modern home cinema should be easy to control, and that’s why we offer full home automation integration with our installations. Imagine dimming the lights, closing the curtains, and starting your favourite movie all with a single touch—or even with a simple voice command. With home automation, you can control every aspect of your home cinema from one central interface, whether it’s a dedicated remote, smartphone app, or voice assistant.
At AML Installations, we integrate your home cinema system with popular smart home platforms. providing seamless control over your audio, video, lighting, and even temperature. You can create custom “scenes” that adjust multiple settings at once, such as a “movie night” scene that lowers the lights, starts the projector, and activates your surround sound system in one go.
With voice assistants like Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant, you can take things a step further by using voice commands to control your entire setup. Whether it’s starting a movie, adjusting the volume, or pausing playback, voice control adds an extra layer of convenience to your home cinema experience.
