A home theater is the dream of many moviegoers, and today it can be realized without huge expense or complex installation. Modern audio systems, projectors, and televisions allow you to recreate the atmosphere of a real movie theater right in your living room, delivering cinematic sound and picture quality.
The foundation of sound is a 5.1, 7.1, or Dolby Atmos speaker system. A classic 5.1 system uses five speakers (front, rear, and center) and a subwoofer. Dolby Atmos adds height channels, creating the effect of sound from above—for example, a passing helicopter or rain.
A soundbar is a compact alternative to a full-fledged system. Modern models from Sonos, Samsung, and Bose support virtual surround sound, Dolby Atmos, and even a wireless subwoofer. They are ideal for small apartments where there is no space for multiple speakers.
An AV receiver is the “brain” of a home theater. It processes the audio signal, distributes it across channels, and controls all sources: TV, Blu-ray player, and game console. The choice of receiver depends on the number of supported channels, HDR support, and format compatibility.
