When it comes to setting up a personal screening room in one's home, most people spend most of their time tracking down the best audio and visual systems they can afford, but overlook the equally important aspect of the seating. The arrangement, style, and features of theatre seating one selects also contributes considerably to the overall experience for the viewer. Consumers should follow these helpful tips in order to make the best choice in seats.
Before purchasing any seats, the homeowner should sketch out the general shape of the designated room and measure its exact dimensions. The width of all hallways and doors used to access the area must also be measured, since the seating will need to pass through them. Seats should not occupy so much space that it's hard to move about freely, and there should be about 18-24 inches left between each of them.
Seats need to placed in such a way that they provide the audience with a comfortable viewing angle and distance from the screen. These important numbers can be calculated with a formula which was devised for this purpose, and are based on the size of the screen. If the room is on the smaller side, it is best to first select the seating, and then match it to the most suitable size screen.
Customers can choose from pre-made or made-to-order designs, as most manufacturers offer either option. Similarly, both power and manual adjustment styles are available. Most seats are upholstered in leather, but other materials may be used as well, including leather-match, microfiber, and vinyl. Seats with a built-in bass shaker system provide viewers with tactile sensations which coordinate with the sights and sounds on-screen.
Seating with a full recline lets the viewer stretch their legs out fully for ultimate comfort, while a simple recline style still allows a standard recline of 5 inches. Offering both space-saving practicality and still very comfortable are the "wallhugger" seat designs. Seats with durable hardwood frames, and plush padding for maximum sound absorption are also the best choice.
Seats can vary in size, and the way in which they are placed in the room, two choices which depend mainly on how much space there is. Viewers may sit alongside each other if there is enough room to do so, but if there is not, seats will need to be arranged in rows. In the event that one wishes to add more rows in the future, it's advisable to leave 20 inches of space on either side of each row.
A platform or riser can be utilized to improve the viewing experience for those seated in the second row of seats if there is one. Arranging the back row seats in a pattern which alternates with the ones in the front row is another solution. If there is only a single row of seats, a curved arrangement is the best choice, as it provides each person with an optimal view.
Whether someone has a traditional or contemporary theatre decor, seat designs come in a variety of styles, finishes, and colors to fit in perfectly with the rest of the room. A number of popular special features are also available such as storage compartments, cup holders, and snack trays. There should also be a manufacturer's warranty provided with all quality seats at the time of purchase.
