Creating a home theater seems like a complex idea, but believe me, it can be easier than you think. With some technological resources in your favor, installed in a comfortable space, it is possible to gather the family to marathon series and watch feature films with all the coziness that your own living room can offer you.
Tips for setting up a home theater
Whether it is in the living room itself or in a dorm room predestined just for this purpose, setting up a home theater requires a few resources that will make all the difference.
Lighting
Ensuring practical lighting with indirect light is not necessarily a rule, but it can help create the perfect mood for your movie theater. A floor or table lamp, placed on a side table next to the sofa will help with that bathroom break, getting a popcorn or drink from the kitchen, or softening the darkness if the idea is not to watch a movie with the light on.(not everyone likes to watch horror movies in the dark, do they?).
TV or projector
A TV with good resolution or a projector are the main elements to compose a home theater. Nowadays, it is also interesting that this TV be Smart, to support your favorite streamings, or that it have a device that mirrors the cell phone on the TV, such as a Chrome Cast or a Fire TV Stick.
A good sofa
Here we must take into account the space in which the home theater will be installed: if it is in the living room, it is important that the sofa is suitable both for receiving guests and for resting in front of the TV. Of course, its size must also be chosen according to the size of the room, so that it does not hinder circulation. But if the home theater is set up in a bedroom just for thispurpose, there is the freedom to think outside the box: custom armchairs, pouffes, or sofas with retractable back and seat are great options.

So that you are not limited to watching your favorite movie or series only at night, invest in a good blackout curtain so that the daylight does not negatively influence the image quality of your TV or projector. There are several options on the market that fit your space, balcony door or window, and the prices are also very diverse.
Sound
A home theater or a soundbar are the icing on the cake that your project needs (in case it is a small room, this item may become dispensable if your TV has a good speaker). When it comes to the first option, there is a range of possibilities, from the system built into panels and the lowered ceiling, to devices with separate boxes that can be spread as you wish throughout the room.
With these features guaranteed, you can pop the popcorn, settle into your seat, and play that movie you have been waiting for so long to come out of the big theaters directly into your home.

55. and the distance of its installation must be taken into account according to the space
56. more minimalist projects include practical and versatile solutions
57. and can mix items used in a living room
58. without neglecting the quality of the experience
