You can transform any space into an immersive cinema with the right home theater design and equipment. While a lot of focus may go to the projector or TV, in this article, we want to focus on the most crucial part of your theater: sound. Visuals are undeniably important, but the sound makes you lean in and engage with your favorite movies, TV shows, and video games. 

It’s that creak in the hallway or the whisper in your ear that gives you goosebumps and truly lets you escape reality. So how can you get truly immersive, detail-rich sound in your New York, NY, home that exceeds that of a commercial movie theater?

According to Statista, it’s estimated that over 68% of homes in the U.S. will have smart devices by 2027. That’s a remarkable statistic considering this technology started growing in popularity only about 20 years ago. And, as with all new technologies, problems emerged.

The more smart home devices, the more problems. While some devices communicate with each other, most users require several apps to achieve their ideal settings. Soon, managing their lighting, shades, thermostat, door locks, security cameras, and speakers can be more of a headache than it's worth. 

That’s why Matter was developed. It’s an interoperability protocol designed to reduce the headaches caused by the lack of communication between smart home devices. Theoretically, it enables individual connected devices to work together, no matter the manufacturer. 

Again, as with most new technology, the promise of ease is overrated.
