The Sound Room: Bringing the experience home

As a kid, going to the movies was a real escape.  From the moment you walked through the lobby doors your senses were hit by a barrage of gusto. The bright colors of the lobby sky, the aroma of freshly popped popcorn and the buoyant embrace from the usher’s hello—it was a genuine experience!

However, as life moves on and we gain more responsibilities we find it harder and harder to make time for leisure activities such as a trip to the movies. This brings us to our question: why not bring the theater experience to your home?

At The Sound Room, we have the ability to design and install any home theater—no matter the size of the project. If you want your theater to have the look and feel of an old-fashioned Nickelodeon, we have the solution. If you are more of the modern type and covet features such as screen size, acoustics and comfort, we have that solution, too.

Not only will a home theater bring you and your family an abundance of entertainment for years to come, but it will increase the overall value of your home. Think about it: what prospective buyer wouldn’t want a home equipped with a movie theater?

At The Sound Room, we do more than simply provide home theater solutions—we provide an experience.   Stop by our showroom or visit us 24/7 online at www.thesoundroom.com

Affordable Home Automation St. Louis

In the past, home automation was thought of as a luxury item for the rich, but as technology has progressed, these systems are showing up in homes across the country.  While you might expect less from an affordable system, as opposed to a traditional system, the only difference is the scalability. For as little as $1,000 a homeowner can have an automation system and add systems a la carte to enhance any part of their lifestyle.

Many people view home automation as giant universal remote control for your home, but it is so much more. Home automation is actually a broad term describing many different systems in your home including whole-house music, intercom, distributed video, networking, security, lighting control, heating and cooling systems, cameras, pool and spa control, gate control, etc. In other words it is a system with controls which makes life simpler, safer, more fun, and saves energy-all at the same time!

The best way to explain this decrease in price is to compare it to another luxury item, the flat-panel TV.  Only ten years ago a 50 inch flat-panel TV could cost as much as $20,000, an amount few could afford. Today, customers can buy 20 flat-panel TVs for the same price. The same thing has happened with home automation. Systems that previously cost several thousand dollars and required extensive wiring and custom programming are now more affordable using wireless technology and free apps on smart phones or tablets.

A basic home automation installation might include an intrusion security system, some pathway lighting, single-zone thermostat and a motorized door lock, all which are accessible with your smart phone or iPad. From there, homeowners can continue to tie in additional systems from LCD TVs all the way up to impressive home theaters. Controlling these systems is possible from anywhere by computer, or through the use of apps on iPads and smart phones. This allows for huge savings, considering the cost for a traditional controller can be $10,000 or more.

With this new market, home automation sales are quickly growing. It is becoming a standard in many new homes. In fact, at The Sound Room, we have been doing installations for local builders in their homes. But instead of large complex systems, most of these installations are smaller. We are taking a customer’s budget and automating the areas of their home which help them the most.  This trend though is not limited to St. Louis, it is national. A study from ABI Research found that shipments of home automation systems are expected to grow from 397,000 in 2010 to 4.14 million in 2014, proving that home automation will continue finding its way into homes across the country as prices decrease.

Affordable automation is also great for vacation homes, because it runs entirely wireless and through cellular networks, so that no Internet connection is needed. For more information about an affordable automation system, stop by our showroom and get in touch with one of our experts. And if you want us to make a house call, our lead salesman Harry Hamm from KMOX will be there!

St. Louis Home Automation – Solutions for Convenience and Savings

Did you know that 12 to 15 percent of your monthly energy bill is spent on lighting? And of that amount, up to 50 percent is wasted on empty rooms! That can sure add up over time.

A solution we offer at The Sound Room is home automation. Wondering what home automation is? Easy, home automation is a system which ties in many different systems like lighting, HVAC, security, whole house music, intercom, networking and many other luxury areas, into a single point of control.

Because lighting is such a large part of your overall energy bill, home automation can save by automatically dimming lights and turning them off when you leave the room. Lighting is also a major source of heat in the house and automation also controls your heating and cooling, so that your home will be properly controlled. With systems, like the Crestron, Sound Room experts can install multiple thermostats around your home to create smaller zones for better efficiency.

Home automation is much though, it brings convenience and fun! When are ready to kick your feet up and relax, home automation can get things started in with just a few pushes of a button. You can start music while control which room it is played in.

And don’t worry about price, because home automation is affordable. As technology progresses automation systems have been dropping is price over the past few years. Systems can be customized for scale and conveniences you are looking for.

The Sound Room was one of the first companies in St. Louis to venture into home automation. We have more than 25 years of experience of working with custom home automation systems. We have systems available for any home, new or retrofit.
