3 Ways Your Home Theater Beats Out a Traditional Movie Theater
Why leave the house to experience the magic of a cinematic masterpiece?
As we near the end of 2020, commercial movie theaters are amid a crisis. As people have sheltered at home during the coronavirus pandemic, home entertainment has flourished while commercial theaters have floundered. And there are very few clues into when or how the theater industry will revive.
Luckily, this doesn’t have to be a loss for you. Now is a great time to take your home entertainment to the next level with a home theater system in Lafayette, LA. Keep reading to learn three reasons why you won’t regret a home cinema installation!

Unlimited Use
Unlike your local theater, a private home cinema is open 24/7. You have the freedom to expand your theater’s use for so many fun viewing activities, like hosting a spooky movie marathon on Halloween or having a Super Bowl watch party with family and friends. During the winter holidays and summer breaks, entertain the kids with movies and snacks at home instead of driving to the theater multiple times. And on date night, skip the Friday night crowds and spend a quiet, romantic evening at home with your spouse, a homecooked meal and a comedy movie in your private cinema.
A home theater is a significant upfront financial investment. But once you start enjoying movies and TV in a theater room perfectly calibrated to deliver optimal sound and picture quality, you’ll never want to return to the days of trying to find a theater seat with a decent view of the screen and being constantly disrupted by a noisy crowd. In the long run, you’ll save time and money on waiting in long lines, purchasing tickets and munching on pricey movie snacks.
Unlimited Content
With digital content streaming and downloading on the rise, there’s never been a better time to invest in home entertainment. In the past, one of the advantages of movie theaters was that they consistently delivered fresh, exciting content for you to view. Today, that’s not the case. Services like Netflix, Amazon, Hulu and Apple TV spend a lot of time and resources to produce and distribute high-quality, original movies and TV shows that you can stream from anywhere.
But what about the big blockbuster movies that premier exclusively in theaters first? Even that trend is changing. In 2020, as people shelter at home during the pandemic, production companies have been releasing several blockbuster films straight to streaming or download. In September, the new Mulan film skipped the theater entirely and was available for streaming on Disney+.
Today, we aren’t as reliant on movie theaters to provide entertainment. In a private theater, you’ll have access to more content than ever before — including content that you’d never have a chance to see on the big screen otherwise.
Unlimited Control
Okay, so you already know that you can use your home theater whenever you want to watch whatever type of content you desire. But you can also control so much more of your viewing experience. With help from a professional integrator like Electronics Professionals, your theater can be designed to give you complete control over the audio/video equipment, lighting and room temperature from one smart device, like a universal remote or touchscreen tablet.
Don’t waste time running around getting everything ready for your viewing experience. Relax into your seat and use your smart device to turn on your theater screen and sound system with one-touch control. Tap the Netflix icon to bring up your movie selection and turn off the lights with one button press. During the movie, adjust the volume, lighting and room temperature from your seat using your smart device. Let your technology do the work for you and enjoy a relaxing experience in an environment attuned to your preferences.
And finally, your home theater will beat out any commercial theater because it will be built by a company specializing in designing, installing and integrating custom home theater systems. At Electronics Professionals, we’re here to turn your theater vision into a reality. Call us at 337-268-9753 or fill out a contact form to get started.
