What’s a Media Room?
Most people didn’t have a “media room” at home growing up. But different lifestyle rooms have come and gone throughout the years. Remember when we called a room at home the “computer room?” And a long time ago, people used parlors and fainting rooms, which have gone out of fashion.
With today’s proliferation of media at home, a media room is the perfect place to enjoy stunning 4K video, high-fidelity audio, and video games with friends and family. A media room is much less restricted than a home theater. It doesn’t have rows of seats facing a screen. You may still include a large projector or flatscreen, but also a pool table, bar, lounge chairs, or a space to play board games and card games.
What Media Rooms Do Best
Media rooms are a great place to entertain guests, host parties, and gather. You don’t have to quietly watch a movie in the dark. You can play a show or music in the background over in-wall speakers while mixing drinks and sharing appetizers. A media room is much more versatile and collaborative than a home theater, but it includes more high-end entertainment than you might expect in a living room.
The Home Theater’s Advantage
A home theater is still the choice for film-focused individuals that want to fully immerse themselves in the movie. Of course, you can still experience full immersion in a media room, with blackout shades and surround sound speakers. But a home theater is a dedicated space to movies, where your focus is only on one place.
Final Verdict
If you don’t want to be restricted by the room’s design and want to be free to do other activities, a media room may be your best bet. If films are your sole focus, go for a home theater!
