People ask what a home cinema costs before anyone has measured the room. A TV on a console and a dedicated room with a projector, proper seating and acoustic treatment are not the same purchase. AVX Solutions will not put a rand figure on this page and pretend it is your quote.
What we can say: the screen size is rarely the thing that makes it good. Speaker position, what the walls do to the sound, where you sit, and whether the lights can actually go dim are the things you notice on the second evening, when the novelty has worn off.
We look at the room you have, or the plan if the room does not exist yet.
We ask what you watch, how loud the house will tolerate, and who else uses the room on a Tuesday.
We separate 'a good TV and a soundbar, done properly' from 'a projector, a screen and a room that has to be built around them'.
What we can say: the screen size is rarely the thing that makes it good.
Equipment gets named there, after the room, not before.
Pretoria and Johannesburg both have houses where the 'cinema' is a lounge with a west-facing window. That can still be a good room. It will not be a blacked-out theatre, and the quote should not assume it is.
Projector mounts, speaker cable and a cupboard for the equipment are cheap in the plan and annoying afterwards.
Only a very wide one, and it is usually useless. Book the design visit. That is the offer.
The room is part of the job. If it needs a specialist builder for seats or wall treatment, we say so instead of hiding it in a speaker price.
Yes. The earlier the better. A beautiful room with the centre speaker behind a fabric panel nobody tested is a common way to waste money.
Yes. See the maintenance page. Projectors and amplifiers do not look after themselves.
