Entertainment and Media

Entertainment technology has evolved dramatically, and Portland homeowners are embracing the possibilities. Whether you're a film enthusiast in Laurelhurst, a sports fan in Beaverton, or a music lover in Sellwood, our entertainment solutions transform how you experience media at home.

Home theater design is both an art and a science. Our process begins with acoustic analysis of your space, considering room dimensions, surface materials, and ambient noise levels. Portland's older homes often present unique acoustic challenges that we address through strategic speaker placement, acoustic treatments, and calibration techniques developed through years of local experience.

Our theater installations range from simple soundbar upgrades to full Dolby Atmos systems with 4K projection. We work with premium brands like Sony, JBL, and Klipsch to deliver cinema-quality experiences. For Portland's basement theaters, we address moisture concerns with appropriate equipment selection and ventilation considerations unique to Oregon's climate.

Whole-home audio systems bring music to every corner of your home. Our Sonos and Control4 installations allow you to play different music in each room or synchronize audio throughout your house for parties. Weather-resistant outdoor speakers extend your entertainment to Portland's beautiful summer evenings, perfect for backyard gatherings.

Modern entertainment systems seamlessly integrate streaming services, cable boxes, gaming consoles, and physical media players. Our universal control solutions eliminate coffee table clutter, replacing multiple remotes with intuitive touchscreens or smartphone apps. Voice control integration means you can start movie night with a simple command to Alexa or Google Assistant.

Entertainment system installation follows a methodical approach. After initial consultation and design, we handle all pre-wiring during construction or carefully route cables in existing homes. Equipment installation, speaker mounting, and screen setup typically take 2-5 days depending on system complexity.

Calibration is crucial for optimal performance. Using professional measurement tools, we adjust speaker levels, delays, and EQ settings to achieve reference-quality sound. Video calibration ensures accurate colors and optimal brightness for your viewing environment.
