Cobham 7.2.1 Dolby Atmos Home Cinema
A home cinema system installed by a different company, a few years ago, in a then new build, had left the owners underwhelmed and dissatisfied.
We at Pro Media Solutions were approached by the owner and asked to revive and bring new life to his cinema room, with the caveat that we’d need to use the current/existing locations and cable infrastructure.
Upon inspection, we found that speakers had been placed in high ceilings and from our experience, we know that this can never produce a truly cinematic feel.
So, with limited options we had to come up with another plan, as we were still determined to bring the cinemagic to this room. Ultimately, we ran new cables discreetly around the room, pulling back the carpet and tucking under skirting boards, before putting back…this left no cables runs visible.
Standard speakers were not an option for this room, so we teamed up with monitor audio to bring in some sleek floor standing speakers and subs that could pack the punch it was missing, whilst keeping the aesthetics of the room.
Not wanting to waste the ceiling speakers, we converted them from being the main speakers to being the surround speakers and upgraded the AVR system to Dolby Atmos.
In addition to the seven overhead existing speakers, we added one centre channel, two fronts as well as two subs. We also added two floor standing speakers behind the seating. This bespoke installation features the Monitor Audio Gold range.
Just wanted to say a quick thank you to Stephen and Toby for all their hard work in getting our Control4 system up and running smoothly. We are so pleased with how everything now looks so neat and tidy. Also, Stephen was very patient with me asking stupid questions!
