Make Your Private Movie Theater More Magical with These State-of-the-Art Products

Not all home theaters are created equal. Some are simple; some are elegant. And others miss the mark entirely. Instead of being a private cinema space that immerses you in vivid displays and hi-fi audio, it’s nothing more than a slight improvement of the entertainment system you’d find in the living room. You deserve much more than that! Your home theater design should capture your imagination and be a magical place for premium home entertainment.

The three components that bring your media space to life are audio, video, and ambiance. If any one of them is subpar, then your home theater experience suffers. Keep reading to learn how these three key ingredients can take your home theater in Westfield, IN, from adequate to amazing.

Learn How Wi-Fi 6 Gives You the Speed and Connectivity You Need

A smart home isn’t very smart if it has a slow network. To keep everything up to speed, you need a home network that can handle the demands of all your smart home products. They require a strong Wi-Fi signal and sufficient internet bandwidth. However, as you continue to add new devices or update existing technologies, it puts more strain on your network bandwidth and Wi-Fi functionality. Fortunately, there is a solution: the new Wi-Fi 6.

Ruckus is a leading provider of home networking products that can give you the speed and reliable connectivity you need. In this blog, we’ll focus on the next-generation features of the Wi-Fi 6 technology. Read more to see why it’s a smart choice for your home in Indianapolis, IN.

Experience Control4, Crestron, Home Theaters, Smart Lighting & More

Before you add new technology or a home theater to your Indianapolis, IN, property, you’d probably like to see the equipment in action first, right? Then you’re in luck. The Premier Group has opened its newly remodeled Luxury Electronic Lifestyle Showroom, displaying home theater technology, smart lighting, and home automation solutions by Control4, Crestron, Sony, Screen Innovations, Lutron, Tech Lighting, and more.

As a Certified Diamond Control4 Dealer at the Pinnacle Level, with a Certified Showroom, you can experience virtually every possible home technology solution for your home. Discover the technology you’ll see in our experience center below.

Comparing Control4 and Crestron

We see lots of products today labeled ‘smart home technology.’ From Nest thermostats to Philips Hue LEDs, these products can be controlled through remotes or phone apps. Many of them can be incorporated into a smart home automation system, but none of these devices on their own will make your home actually ‘smart.’

There are, however, brands that can sync all your technology for a truly automated home. Control4 and Crestron are arguably the most talked-about names in the market. Both Control4 and Crestron can control your lights, audio, thermostats, TVs, security devices, and much more.

But which is best for your house? The Premier Group is one of the few Control4 and Crestron dealers in Indiana with a certified showroom. We’ll share the differences and similarities between both systems so you can find the perfect solution for your Fishers-area home.

An advanced Ruckus home network installation by Premier speeds up connections so you can stream, download, video chat, and more — all at the same time, all together!

With the holidays fast approaching, the winter months cooling, and many of us spending even more time with our loved ones than expected this year in Carmel, IN, it’s essential to get the most out of the experience. Listening to music, watching a holiday movie classic, and chatting with your extended family are just some of the ways you can bring everyone together, even if you’re social distancing.

But there's just one problem -- all of the extra traffic could put a significant strain on your Wi-Fi network. Lagging video and spotty music playback can quickly put a damper on what should be the happiest time of the year. Thankfully, we can implement Ruckus Networks with their advanced proprietary technology to ensure strong connections and robust speeds, no matter how much you use your system.

Looking for an audio-video installation?

As Fisher, IN's leading technology installer and advocate, we can take your project to the next level. Don't be afraid of loose wires, poor connections, or hard-to-maintain technology -- we make it simple.

Sleep easier with automatic, motorized shades from Screen Innovations

The white light from outdoor security lamps blazes across your bedroom. You can make out the shapes of every piece of furniture in the room. Somehow, the Zionsville night seems to be conspiring to keep you awake. No matter what you do, your brain won’t stop racing -- and you certainly won’t get any sleep tonight.

We've all been there. Even though it's the middle of the night, we can't relax our minds. There are plenty of reasons you might not be able to sleep, but among the most common are ambient and artificial light. According to Sleep.org, “Artificial light disrupts the body's circadian rhythm—the body’s 24-hour sleep/wake cycle... [It’s] associated with sleep disorders like insomnia” that can ruin a good night’s rest.

Of course, dealing with ambient light from your windows is easy with automatic, motorized shades from Screen Innovations. Integrated shades block the light that seeps in from the corner of your windows so that you can enjoy a more restful night's sleep.
