Add Home Media Center as a part of Home Extension

By | March 28, 2011

It has become popular to have extensions for a home media center. You can select and view your files including music, video or pictures in a flexible way on a large screen. Large television screens and surround sound systems in a home media center can provide a movie style ambiance.

You can install home media or home theatre PCs that can show films from a hard disk, DVD or a BluRay disc of the PC. Many people wish to have a home theater in a separate room and this has lead to the extension for a home media center. You can convert any one of the rooms to a home media center. Otherwise, you can add a new room to the existing house, provided you have a large space.

Power, heating, and lighting appliances are the most important constituents to be added in a home media center. Therefore, choose one of the rooms that can provide a space for these requirements. Make sure that the equipment and electrical wiring required are installed properly. The cables used must be arranged easily and neatly. Decide the position and number of power sockets that need to be fixed in the home media center.

You need not alter any existing structures of the room to place a large flat television screen. Select a large clear wall space and paint it with a projector paint. This gives a beautiful and neat look. It is easy to use this instead of having a projector screen. Make use of a better sound proofing system to avoid sound booming all over the house. If you want to enjoy the film in dark, then you can place curtains or blinds to keep it dark. Thus, you can add a media center and enjoy at home.
