Your Premier HOME THEATRE - Innovative one-touch user control makes integrating audio-visual products simpler than ever

Our homes should be a sanctuary for us to relax in and take time off from the business of our daily lives. To this end, we look for better and more immersive ways to increase our enjoyment in leisure time at home, and certainly one of the most exceptional ways of doing this is a home theatre replete with all sorts of audio-visual gadgets.

What about having a cinematic experience within the comfort of your own home where we can experience the best audio-visual quality combined with the chance to ease off? When making a home theatre, we often instinctually want to choose the best of each category of electronics. But harmonising these different devices to work together and making sure that they can integrate well into your home is another challenge altogether. So how can we make all of these devices fit seamlessly into the rest of our home’s design? To answer this question, we need to look at what audio-visual entertainment products are on the market that can satisfy an aspiring home theatre owner, and what solutions are available to allow these products to work together in harmony.

The first step in setting up a home theatre that fits seamlessly with the rest of the home is a TV lift allowing for creative modes of storage. British company Future Automation offers a series of motorised TV lift mechanisms that help harmoniously integrate a television into an interior space. The company has been building high quality TV lifts since 1998 for a wide variety of different settings, be they residential, marine, commercial, hospitality, or outdoors, and their combination of an in-house design team, experienced engineers, and a broad range of fabrication capabilities have resulted them being able to offer numerous TV lift solutions for customers’ needs.

Options from Future Automation’s catalogue include regular vertical TV lifts, a lift with a hinge mechanism, TV lifts with a swivel mechanism, systems which allow TVs to be stored under a bed and emerge from the foot of the bed without additional furniture, and out of floor lifts, as well as a number of more specialised versions to suit any other needs a customer might have. This wide range of products provides not only innovative storage solutions to maximise the use of space in your home, but also allows televisions to be elegantly hidden away when not in use.

HKT Smart Living Pro allows for a variety of differently-branded products to be integrated in a single network

▪	Samsung’s OLED8K television’s high-definition creates amazing life-like images.

A TV lift is best when watching a set of the same high quality, and Samsung’s QLED 8K Q950TS 85-inch television is the perfect choice for the film connoisseur planning to create their own engaging home theatre experience. The Infinity Screen gives a more captivating viewing experience with its True 8K resolution powered by 33 million pixels. Additionally, the Q950TS has an invisible connection and a “No Gap” wall mount, giving the whole ensemble a seamless look and stylish design that perfectly blends in with the rest of the living environment. It also has a 2nd generation AI Quantum Processor 8K, which uses machine and deep learning to upscale low-resolution videos for high resolution displays, creating a perfect simulacrum of reality. The Quantum HDR10+ (4000) capability of the Q950TS provides the viewer with ultra-contrast and brightness whilst the Direct Full Array 32X brings every detail to life.

▪	The B&O Soundbar fits seamlessly into any interior and is a design feature in and of itself.

Amazing graphics should be paired with an equally impressive sound system, and Bang & Olufsen’s Beosound Stage fully rounds out the system to provide a fully engaging cinematic experience. The Beosound Stage provides powerful surround sound built into a sleek and elegantly designed unit whilst also removing the need for a separate external subwoofer due to it already having four integrated woofers. It comes in four colours, these being anthracite aluminium, smoked oak, natural aluminium, and bronze tone aluminium. The relatively neutral tones allow the Beosound Stage to fit in perfectly with any interior, whilst its three channel fully active system creates a rich and deep auditory experience which can be further enhanced by the Dolby Atmos feature. Furthermore, the Beosound Stage has its own integrated streaming setup including Chromecast Built-in, Apple Airplay 2, and Bluetooth, making it a multiroom enabled music system in and of itself.

We can further enrich our leisure experience by using home automation to help these products work more easily together and hence reduce the hassle for ourselves. This is where HKT Smart Living Pro steps in. HKT Smart Living Pro is an ideal solution for someone looking to improve their smart home living experience. It can be used for a multitude of tasks within the home, from controlling motorised curtains and creating tailored ambiences through lighting effects to monitoring your home through connected IP cameras to ensure the safety of loved ones. As regards audio-visual entertainment in particular, HKT Smart Living Pro allows for a variety of products from different brands to all be integrated together under a single network which can be administered at the touch of a button on a tablet or smartphone via its one touch control system, making it the perfect addition for a home theatre with its easy setup.
