Home Theater Soundproofing

home theater systems and big-screen HDTV's have increased in popularity.
Like any true entertainment guru knows, the ultimate entertainment experience is a home theater. It's your own private area for you to enjoy your favorite TV show. It's where you gather the family for movie night.

But it's also the reason others are complaining about the  noise of special effects, heard all throughout the house. And while the picture may be crystal clear, the sound isn't. After you've invested in the space, you don't want to lose your joy because you notice it doesn't sound as good as it looks.

What Home Theater Soundproofing Can Do for You


Home theater soundproofing products:

  • Keep loud sounds inside the room, so you don't bother other family members in the house
  • Prevent outside noise from coming in, keeping you where you should be: in the movie
  • Improve sound quality within the home theater itself, so the sound quality matches the picture quality

Unfortunately, 99% of home theater buyers don't think about acoustics until they actually sit down to watch their first movie or game.

Each home theater configuration has its own acoustical challenges. But most can be met with one of two types of products: Home theater soundproofing or sound absorption materials.

How Do I Know which Type of Home Theater Soundproofing I Need?


Here's an easy 2-step process to determine which you need:

Step 1: Identify WHAT the problem is.
Is your wife constantly asking you to turn down the volume so she can sleep? Is the movie sound muffled and not clear? Do you hear outside traffic noise while trying to watch your favorite flick?

Step 2: Identify WHERE the sound is coming from that you want to fix.
Do you want to fix the sound of the theater? Or do you want to fix the sound outside the theater?

Sound absorption products help control the noise that's in the same space as you and increase the sound quality of that space.
