If you’re in the midst of your home theater installation, furniture may be the furthest thing from your mind. Most homeowners focus primarily on the television and audio equipment, leaving furniture selection as a final detail. However, selecting the right home theater furniture will greatly improve your viewing experience. Premiere Home Theater specializes in developing custom home theaters for residents in Cornelius, NC. Below are some of the factors they have their customers consider when purchasing home theater furniture.

3 Factors To Consider When Shopping For Home Theater Furniture

1. Television & Speaker Positioning

One of the most important factors to consider when selecting your home theater furniture is the layout of the room. The television or screen should be the focal point and the speakers should either be placed all around the room or around the screen. Ideal seating for your home theater will allow every person an equal view of the screen, although some people may prefer to be closer to or further from it. 

2. Room Size

The size of your room will also affect your furniture selection. If your home theater is smaller, you may decide to place a few a recliners side by side, allowing everyone an equal view of the screen. If you have a bit more room, you have more freedom to experiment with the layout, placing chairs in rows or selecting larger seats.

3. Types Of Chairs

There are dozens of chair selections and combinations to choose from when selecting your home theater furniture. You can choose from materials such as leather, suede, and velvet, and chairs can come in singles, doubles, or triples. Your chairs can also have cup holders, large armrests, and even storage compartments. While it may seem overwhelming, keep in mind your overall goal should be comfort. Your screen and audio equipment will recreate movie theater quality, but your chairs should remind you that you are at home.
