A dedicated home theater is usually a dedicated room specifically for watching movies, either on VHS, DVD, Satellite or Cable. The art of a dedicated home theater is to match the right audio/video equipment to the space in which they will work. The space requirement for a dedicated home theater is typically not multi-use, like the introductory theater configuration. This room may have other entertainment uses; however, its main purpose will be movie viewing. Typically in a dedicated setup, all of the audio components will be selected specifically for the user’s viewing habits.

Automation is used to control the equipment, as well as the room lights, etc. in the space. The speaker selection and placement is geared exclusively for the viewing space, thus the budget will be higher than the introductory system. The video unit can be either a rear projection, flat-panel plasma or a multi-media projector.

The viewing size and angles will be configured for the room, bringing viewers into the movie. The dedicated home theater system is an excellent movie watching experience and can rival your local commercial theater.
