Five Mistakes That Kill Home Theaters Before They're Born

Why Professional Design Is the Difference Between “Pretty Good” and “Wow”

You’ve got the space. You’ve got the budget. You’ve dreamed of immersive movie nights with your favorite people texting, “When can I come over again?”

But here’s what often happens instead:

You mount the biggest screen you can afford. You hook up speakers, and maybe even splurge on a subwoofer. Six months later, you’re adjusting the volume every ten minutes because dialogue sounds like mumbling, the bass shakes your walls, and that pricey projector overheats during the climax of nearly every action movie.

Unfortunately, this is the reality of DIY: finding good deals and some time on the weekends, then creating a piecemeal home theater setup that simply doesn’t cut it. 

At Launch Systems, we’ve designed and installed hundreds of high-performance home theaters across Southern California. We’ve seen the pitfalls of DIY and subpar AV system design, and we’ve often fixed the aftermath of big, bold do-it-yourself ideas that simply don’t make it to the finish line. 

We know what elevates a theater from basic to brilliant, and we’ve compiled a list of the top five most common mistakes we help clients avoid.
