5 expert tips for creating the ultimate at-home cinema experience
Dodgy, uncomfortable seats. Bank-breaking refreshment prices. Relentless wrapper rustling and chatter.
Any film buff would argue that this is all just part of the movie-going experience, but what if we told you there was a way you could eliminate all these inconveniences?
With the ever-increasing popularity of film streaming services, you wouldn’t be the first to sack off your local cinema and attempt to replicate the setting at home.
So, how do you create the ultimate at-home cinema experience?
Discover our expert tips below!
1. Think carefully about screen setup
Of course, the screen is the most crucial part of your bedroom cinema setup.
When it comes to choosing the right TV, ensure it’s big enough for immersive viewing, but still suited to your space so that it doesn’t take over your room. To further enhance visuals, you could upgrade to 4K or OLED for a crisp, clear picture with rich colours.
You should also make sure the screen, regardless of the size, is positioned correctly. Eye level is ideal when you’re sitting or reclining in bed, so this will look different for everyone.
Adjustable TV beds make it easy to find your perfect positioning, and the ones we supply here at TV Bed can comfortably accommodate screen sizes of up to 43 inches – the perfect size for binge-watching films from the comfort of your bed.
2. Invest in high-quality sound
Sound is another important part of your viewing experiences, and without it, your favourite shows and movies wouldn’t be the same.
Surround sound is the go-to for those trying to reach the gold cinema standard, and here at TV Bed, we have a range of True Sound TV beds that are the perfect addition to your bedroom for film nights.
Our collection of True Sound TV beds features the revolutionary True Sound surround sound system, also referred to as 5.1, which is a six-channel surround sound audio system commonly used in both commercial streaming and cinema to provide cinematic sound quality film fanatics crave.
Using five full bandwidth channels and one low-frequency effects channel, you’ll be at the centre of the action, and able to enjoy a truly breathtaking audio experience.
3. Get smart with tech
From voice-controlled assistants like Google Home or Alexa, to streaming devices like the Amazon Firestick and Google Chromecast and universal remote controls, smart technology is a great addition to your home cinema setup.
Devices like these are a convenient, hassle-free way to watch all the latest blockbusters, and are sure to enhance your viewing pleasure – making every movie night effortless.
4. Don’t underestimate the importance of lighting
To create a convincing cinema atmosphere, incorporating lighting into your set-up is an absolute must.
There are plenty of ways you can do this, from LED strip lighting and dimmable lamps, to fairy lights and even candles, and all are guaranteed to set the mood – whether you’re tucking into a romcom or braving the latest supernatural horror.
Some of our TV beds, including our True Sound range feature built-in lighting, so you can add to the ambience and stream your favourites in style.
5. Prioritise your comfort
Your comfort is also important, so you should make it one of your top priorities.
Add plush duvets and soft pillows to create a sense of cosy calm, and take it one step further with a weighted or heated blanket for ultimate comfort.
At TV Bed, you’ll find an array of pillows, blankets, and other accessories that are the perfect addition to your bedroom cinema arrangement.
