Home Theater Installations
At Padgitt's we define the concept of Home Theater as television and video equipment designed to reproduce in the home the experience of being in a movie theater.
A home theater system uses a combination of audio and visual components to recreate the experience of a professional movie theater. The set-up may be as simple as a DVD player fed through a stereo system and a larger television set, or as elaborate as an entire room professionally wired with multiple speakers and a projection screen. A home theater system may even include theater-style chairs and an elevated floor for optimal viewing.
Retrofitting
Retrofitting of existing home can bring the same high-tech equipment right into your living room without disrupting your lifestyle in the process. Retrofitting does take a bit more effort but the rewards of a great home theater are worth it. The first step should be to consult a pro to discuss what you want and how to accomplish it.
This should include drawing up a floor plan, preferably right there in your house. This is necessary in deciding where you want the electronics, including speakers, and what type of video display you prefer - colossal rear projector, elegant front projector or wall-hanging plasma. Let Padgitt's help you realize your "Dream Room."
Control Systems
As home theaters become more and more popular, sooner or later everyone begins to experience the same basic problem: too many remote controls sitting on the coffee table. While a few such as those packaged with television sets or receivers may feature basic universal capability, it always seems there's a few buttons on every other remote that you're unable to program yet just can't live without. That's where a Univeral Remote Control System comes in. One unit that can learn the signals for even the most obscure feature and allow you to finally, once an dfor all, put the rest away. We work with famous name brands such as AMX, Crestron, Sony, and Phillips.
