Cinematic Tech We Trust
Control4 to automate the room, Triad to deliver a matched surround field, and McIntosh to power it with real muscle — all tuned for Northern New Jersey homes.
Why Build a Theater or Media Room?
Because families want a space where movies, sports, gaming, and music all live together — and it works every time you press “Watch.”
One-button movie nights
Control4 replaces the stack of remotes with a single interface, so anyone can start the system — lights dim, AV turns on, and the room is ready. No more “how do I make this work?” moments.
Add a Sony 98” display for the big-screen look, even if you don’t want a projector.
Media rooms for real families
We build media rooms that blend into finished basements, dens, or great rooms — with furniture-based seating, hidden speakers, and clean wiring.
Triad Sound, McIntosh Power
Triad gives you perfectly matched in-wall, in-ceiling, and in-room speakers so the front soundstage, surrounds, and Atmos channels all sound like they belong together. McIntosh brings the authority.
Matched speaker packages
Triad is built to order, matching finish, performance, and room size. Perfect for theaters or family media rooms where speakers need to disappear.
Serious amplification
McIntosh multi-channel amps deliver effortless dynamics, perfect for action movies and music-heavy films.
Controlled by Control4
Scene-based control ties in lights, shades, and even star ceilings — press “Theater” and the whole room responds.

This isn’t just for once-a-month movie night — this is a room your family will actually use.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you retrofit a theater into an existing basement?
Yes. We can design media rooms for finished spaces using in-wall/in-ceiling speakers, on-wall displays, and acoustic treatments that blend in.
Do you only do dark “cinema” rooms?
No. We do both dedicated theaters and family-first media rooms that work with windows, daylight, and multipurpose furniture.
Can the theater be part of Control4?
Absolutely. We integrate theater scenes into Control4 so the room is easy for everyone to operate with one remote.
