EDITOR’S COMMENT

HOORAY FOR HOME CINEMA!

Time once again to take a look around the wonderful world of home cinema and media rooms. There is no doubt that this sector has done well in recent times, triggered by an increased interest in home improvement via home entertainment, and some significant progress from manufacturers in improving performance-versus-price-point. Distributors have also increased their support often via high quality demonstration facilities. Installers have also been striving to deliver evermore focused projects matching closely the needs and priorities of customers. The market itself has evolved, offering a wider palette to integrators as dedicated home cinema spaces are joined by systems woven into existing living spaces, providing the ultimate, fully integrated entertainment experiences for homeowners. There has never been a wider choice in terms of products or approach for the home cinema market, so the aim of this publication is to provide readers with our well-rounded insight into some of the major UK players and what they can offer. We hope you enjoy our journey through this important sector and let us know if you would like to get involved in any of our other regular Essential Install supplements.
