DIY Home theater design is about so much more than having the latest and greatest high-tech equipment, comfortable seating, and trendy accessories. No matter how good your home theater room looks, it’s guaranteed to disappoint unless you address the issue of sound.
To achieve optimal sound in your home movie theater, you’ll need to address two issues: 1) DIY home theater soundproofing and 2) home theater acoustics.
Home Theater Soundproofing
A new home movie theater can increase your enjoyment of your home; it also can backfire if you neglect to soundproof. Soundproofing decreases the amount of noise that escapes from your home theater room into the rest of your house. Audimute’s Peacemaker flexible rubber soundproofing insulation is an excellent choice for home theater soundproofing. Installed within the walls, floors, and ceiling, these eco-friendly insulation sheets and rolls come in various thicknesses to help keep sound where it belongs.
Home Theater Acoustics
Hard surfaces reflect sound; this can lead to echoes and reverberations that distort "true" sound. Adding absorptive materials such as acoustic treatments to your existing home movie theater decreases the echo and brings out the sound you want to hear.
Audimute offers several products that will improve the acoustics in your DIY home theater room:
- Audimute Acoustic Panels install easily on your walls or ceiling. They use earth-friendly materials to absorb sound waves and come in a variety of colors and shapes that will enhance your home theater design.
- Audimute Acoustic Image Panels and Custom Image Panels use the same effective technology but include an image - either a stock image or one that you supply - for a truly unique way to improve the look and sound of your home movie theater.
- Audimute Bass Traps capture low-frequency sound to acoustically tune your home theater room.
- Audimute Sonipad Vibration Isolation Platforms, either framed or unframed, "float" a device, such as a speaker, to reduce surface vibration. The resulting sound is tighter and fuller.
