If you’re ready to build the home theater room of your dreams, it’s smart to begin with a budget. After all, there’s nothing worse than your exciting upgrade plans leading to unexpectedly high prices.
While the cost of a home theater can vary significantly, there are some basic elements you can plan for in your budget. Before starting your home theater renovation process, consider the costs of the following key components:
The focal point of your home theater will be your screen. For this, you have the choice of getting a large TV or using a projector and screen.
If you decide to go with a TV, there are many factors to consider, including screen size, resolution and extra features. Smart TVs are incredibly useful for home theaters, but can cost significantly more.
Projectors also range in price and quality, but allow you the option to DIY a viewing screen. Using matte finish paint or sturdy cloth, you create a budget-friendly surface for your movie watching experience.
A projector also grants you a more authentic movie theater picture quality. For those who want a true movie theater experience at home, a projector and screen might be the best option.
When building a movie room, most of your budget will likely go to your sound system. To achieve perfect movie theater surround sound, you can buy surround sound speaker sets, or make your own with individual speakers.
With individual speakers, you have more options to stay within your budget. However, expert audiophiles suggest using speakers of the same brand to ensure perfect sound matching for the entire room.
Whether you opt for a speaker set or individual speakers, consider the potential costs of installation. Mounting speakers to walls or ceilings might require professional assistance, and complex electrical wiring should always be handled by a licensed electrician.
There are other factors to consider when gathering home theater ideas, such as lighting, acoustics and theater seating. However, budgeting carefully for the primary components of a home theater such as viewing screen and sound system will help you build the movie theater of your dreams without breaking the bank.
