Add it to a Whole-House Audio Setup
While a surround sound system is designed to deliver audio within a defined space, it doesn’t necessarily need to be isolated from your home’s other speakers.
In fact, you can include your surround sound system as part of a multi-room or whole-home audio setup.
Using a Sonos:Connect device that connects to your receiver, you can add wireless connectivity to your surround sound setup. Regardless of whether your system is in a separate space or is part of a great room within your home, a Sonos:Connect will add those speakers to any whole-home audio setup.
This is especially useful for when you are throwing house parties, for example.
With just the tap of a button on your smartphone within the Sonos application, you can play your favorite Spotify playlist from not only Sonos speakers throughout your house but also from your once-passive surround sound speakers, as well.
As you add music to every corner of your home, you will deliver a more engaging experience for your family and your guests.
Make Your System Dolby Atmos-Compatible
You likely have heard about Dolby Atmos before. But what exactly is it?
Atmos is a revolutionary audio format for movies and some video games that delivers sound to be an immersive, previously unexplored experience.
Regarding speaker configuration, Atmos goes beyond the traditional surround sound setup by also demanding two overhead speakers. This allows for the viewer to listen to audio in a genuinely three-dimensional format.
But what truly distinguishes Atmos is how sound is processed. You will need an Atmos-enabled receiver, but within an Atmos system, each speaker produces unique sound within a scene that is designed to immerse you in the action. To make you feel as if you are experiencing the movie – not just watching it.
Our team at The Premier Group can help you not only determine if your existing surround sound setup can support Atmos audio format but also install in-ceiling speakers entirely hidden from view while still delivering a world-class auditory experience.
We even can add a new receiver to your existing setup, if necessary, calibrate your system to support this best-in-class audio format.
Upgrade Your Equipment
Of course, one of the most efficient and immediate ways to upgrade your existing surround sound system is to update the equipment you currently are using.
This especially might be necessary if you want to experience the immersive qualities of Dolby Atmos audio.
But a simple upgrade of your speakers and receiver might even improve the overall sound quality you experience as you listen to music or watch a movie.
Our team at The Premier Group works with several high-end audio brands, including Sony, Bowers & Wilkins, and Sonance, for our surround sound system installations.
Just by merely upgrading your equipment to feature more high-end audio technology, you will instantly notice a positive change in the quality of sound you listen to.
Not only will audio sound more defined, but it will feel as if you are a part of the action rather than just listening to it from afar.
