Home Theater

The home cinema experience is unique to every customer and every space, but one thing is true for every job: audio makes all the difference. Whether you’re already installing home theaters or looking to grow your business, Snap One has the gear you need to build immersive home theater experiences.

A/V Receivers and Separates: Which Is Best for Your Install?

For a one-box, AM/FM tuner, preamplifier/processor and amplification set up, install an AV receiver. The device is compact and wallet-friendly. However, for jobs that require power, and superior audio quality with high-end internals, clients will need you to choose the right separates. See how the two systems stack up for the best path forward on your job.

Choosing an AVR

To choose the proper AVR, consider the required number of input and output channels. Snap One carries the industry’s leading AVRs with the capacity to build 5.1 to 13.2 channel systems. For added audio versatility, find AVRs with wireless music streaming, Bluetooth and Airplay features.

The Latest Audio and Video Capabilities

Clients with high audio and visual standards will enjoy Dolby Atmos audio paired with a 4K or 8K AVR video experience. Dolby Atmos system assigns sounds to specific speakers for a sense of dimension and space. Install DTX for customers who want to feel immersed in the sound through its 5.1 or 7.1 channel setup.

Overhead Speakers and Subwoofers

An overhead speaker with a subwoofer provides a complete sound. From richly textured to full-bodied and powerful, sound ranges translate with the specificity of an out-of-home theater experience.

The Subtle Importance of a Subwoofer

Regular speakers excel at delivering mid-range sounds. However, a subwoofer is essential to get a rounder experience with deeper, low-frequency tones. It’s a crucial component in counterbalancing high-frequency sounds.
