A home theater, for many, is a sanctuary to escape from the stresses of everyday life and be transported into another world. The realism of the theater depends on both the acoustics and the lighting. Quality speakers properly placed with the correct wire and connections are important factors necessary for realistic sound. Lighting is also important where reflections are reduced to a minimum. Distracting lights and reflections can reduce the enjoyment of the home theater.

With the expense that a home theater can be, you will want to maximize all dollars spent. To positively affect both light and sound, Sound Acoustic Solutions offers Silent Ceiling Black, a black acoustical ceiling tile, in 2×2, 2×4 dimensions and 1” and 2” thicknesses.

These black acoustical ceiling tiles are a high-quality fiberglass-based ceiling tile with a 100g face with a matte finish. Screen placement is important as you will want to reduce the amount of glare from glass windows and doors. When Silent Ceiling Black tiles are installed, light is absorbed into the tile allowing your eyes to be able to concentrate only on the screen. Also, sound reverberation is greatly reduced using these acoustical tiles.

Sound reverberation within a room is probably the biggest reason your speakers aren’t reaching their maximum potential. When fine-tuning your speakers, make sure to understand the NRC Hz spectrum for Silent Ceiling Black so you fully understand what type of sounds (from high pitch to low booms) will be most affected.

Installing Silent Ceiling Black is the best bang for the buck to improve lighting and sound within a home theater and should be the first area for improvement. It is also very cost-effective and will, in the end, provide you with a movie theater atmosphere both visually and acoustically.
