1. Upgrade to High-End Speakers
Many people think there’s no difference between lower-quality and high-end speakers. However, there’s a large and noticeable difference that you only need to hear to recognize instantly! Once you’ve enjoyed powerful bass notes and intricate, detailed sound, it’s nearly impossible to go back to low-end speakers.
Deck out your room with surround sound for both music and movie enjoyment. We recommend high-tier brands like Origin Acoustics, JL Audio, and Triad Speakers. Want less clutter? Origin Acoustics manufactures high-fidelity speakers that can blend seamlessly into walls and ceilings.
2. Swap Your HD TV for 4K or 8K
Whether you want a display over the bar or across the room, it’s time to make the upgrade to 4K or even 8K. You’ll enjoy deeper blacks, richer colors, and clearer visuals than ever when you switch to a Samsung QLED or Sony OLED TV. What does OLED mean? It means that every pixel is self-illuminating, resulting in superior color accuracy.
3. Try a Split Screen Feature
Create your own sports bar at home by splitting your large display into halves or quadrants – or play different feeds across several screens. If you own a smart control system like Control4, Crestron, or Savant, you can easily divide television screens to play multiple games at once. Smart remotes make it simple to select media and choose a screen to play on. You’ll never flip back and forth between games again!
4. Set the Scene with Smart Lighting
Entertainment is only one key to creating a fun atmosphere. If you want to use your home bar or media room more often, you can create a welcoming ambiance with color customizable smart lighting.
A smart lighting system gives you total control of your lights’ brightness and hue. You can save custom scenes like “Party” or “Movie Night” that will set the lights just how you like them – all from a single tap on a wall keypad or swipe on your phone.
5. Control It All from One System
If you want to spend more time in the room, you need to make it easy to use. A home control system like Control4, Crestron, or Savant automates everything you need – the TV, speakers, lights, and even motorized shades and thermostats. Then, you can make the whole room ready to entertain from the same remote or app.
