Lights are dimmed, surround sound is activated, and the smell of freshly popped popcorn fills the air—there's nothing quite like the enchanting experience of watching a movie in a theater. And it’s even better if you can enjoy this captivating experience in the comfort of your own home. At Wipliance, we’ve been taking the magic of cinema to homeowners in Scottsdale, AZ, for more than 15 years now. If there’s something we’ve learned in all that time, it is that an exceptional home theater design goes a long way in making the experience more enjoyable and memorable for your family.

Particularly for the movie buffs out there who can’t get enough of their favorite films, we recommend creating a home theater design inspired by the best cinematic pieces themselves. Take a look at our blog to learn a few creative ways our experts can help you transform your dedicated home theater. 

When it comes to big-screen movie watching at home, it’s hard to beat the performance of a projector. However, not all homeowners have the space fora dedicated theater room. If you have a media room, a traditional long-throw projector may not fit well in there either. Not to mention that a wall or ceiling projector would likely distract from your interior design.

You can put these problems behind you when you choose a Sony short-throw projector for your Scottsdale, AZ home, which offers flexible placement and installation and can display a screen size up to 120 inches in diameter. If you want big projector-screen entertainment in a small space, keep reading to learn more about the Sony VPL-VZ1000ES ultra-short throw projector.

As you can imagine, almost everyone envisions their dream home theater a little differently. Some folks want an ultra-modern and minimalistic cinema with room to entertain guests. Others prefer a retro, Old Hollywood-style theater.

Home theaters and media rooms have been around for a long time, and the technologies powering them have seen significant change. Video, audio, and control technologies have made significant improvements, and sometimes we forget how far they have come.

The home theater of a dozen years ago might be equipped with a Blu-ray player as a primary source of high-quality movie content. Today, while many still use this, it’s more popular to stream video in excellent quality from Netflix, Amazon Video, Vudu, and a host of other online services. In audio, surround sound was just beginning to go beyond the standard 5.1 surround setup with a front stage and two surround speakers. And with video, high definition 1080P was the standard resolution, just entering its growth phase as people replaced older standard definition TVs and projectors.

Fast forward to today, and we now have not only 4K but 8K resolution available, immersive Dolby Atmos audio, and supremely intuitive control systems. Let’s explore how you can update your media or home theater design in your Scottsdale, AZ, home to elevate your entertainment experience.
