Is it a life-sized HD picture? A booming sound system? Plush seating? Mood lighting? Great 2 channel audiophile system?

Ask most people and they'll mention these elements. But what about the room and its acoustics?

After all, your home theater or 2-channel rig started with the room. And it's here that you are about to install an expensive surround-sound system. Seasoned audiophiles, folks who have spent handsomely on audio gear over the years, will tell you the room is everything - that it's actually integral to the system. Their advice? Don't make room acoustics an afterthought.

Our partners Kinetics have products to address every aspect of your room's acoustics: Reflection, Diffusion, Absorption, and Reverberation.

Kinetics' acoustical solutions are engineered to control all aspects of your room's acoustics so your theater sounds outstanding no matter what you're watching.  Sound Lab can complete a room measurement and model to recommend the right products for the biggest impact to the quality of the sound.

Beautiful sounding home theaters are exciting when the lights are low. When acoustics are correct, your senses are overtaken by the cinematic experience.

Acoustical panels don't have to look boring either below are samples of designer panels and even panels that appear to be pictures.  Contact Sound Lab for a consultation.
