Five key benefits of a modern home cinema

“There’s never been a better time to invest in a private screening room in your own home” explains Stuart Burgess, Director at Immersive Cinema Rooms. 

Totally Immersive

“The technology has improved so much in recent years that the performance is quite a bit better than the typical commercial cinema, in complete luxury and to suit your own style. You become completely immersed in what you’re watching - much more so than when you’re out in public because you feel safe, so you can relax.”

Not just for films

“You can do so much more with these rooms nowadays” adds Stuart “We’re in the era of epic box sets, from Game of Thrones to Stranger Things - they’re produced to the high standards of a blockbuster movie, but they last for hours, and you can’t even watch them in cinemas. Then there’s major sport events, and perhaps a bit of social gaming. There’s no shortage of top-notch entertainment.”

“Finally of course, with Netflix and other new services, there are plenty of films to enjoy too, and you don’t even have to faff about with discs anymore. There’s so much choice you can suit all tastes.”

A great use for ‘tricky’ rooms

Not every space can be light and airy. For example, rear extensions often leave you with a darker room at the centre. “If you’ve still got a dining room, you can leave it that way and use it twice a year, or create a fantastic cinema room you’ll use most days.”

Family and friends

Films, box sets, sport and gaming are all highly social. “It’s really easy to ignore a TV in the corner, we’ve all done it. That doesn’t happen with a high-performance setup, you have to pay attention - that gets everyone off their phones and you all have a good time together. It’s a memorable experience you’ll talk about later.”

Rainy days and Mondays

“Let’s face it, it rains in England. That can easily mess your weekend plans up, but with a fantastic cinema room you’ve always got a plan B. Or if you are quite outdoorsy you can come home again after a busy Saturday and chill out together with a film or binge on a box set.”

“We’re not saying you should watch more TV, we’re saying that when you do, make it special.”
