  • Media Room/Home Cinema Soundproofing
    HOME CINEMA SOUNDPROOFING Media Room/Home Cinema Soundproofing Megasorber’s range of noise barrier and acoustic absorption materials are ideally suited to provide treatment to home cinemas and media rooms. In any room, noise will find the ‘weak’ areas and try to get through, potentially disturbing those in neighbouring rooms. Imagine a plastic bag with water inside... no matter how strong the plastic is; if there are any holes the water will leak. Similar with noise – if there are any gaps, the sound will enter or escape. In short, to reduce noise being heard outside the media room / home cinema, you need to ‘seal’ the ceiling and walls. Initially, noise barrier will reduce noise transfer between the lounge and adjoining rooms – when applied to walls and ceiling, between layers of plasterboard, due to its high density and viscoelastic properties. In addition, Megasorber acoustic absorption panels can then be installed on to the ceiling and the tops of the walls to reduce reverberation and make your audio crisp and clear. Note that any windows should be double, or triple glazed for best acoustic effect, and doors should be solid and well-sealed, to reduce noise leakage from these traditionally “weaker” points in the room. Recommended Treatments Noise Barrier - Walls We recommend applying Megasorber B8 in between 2 layers of plasterboard (you can also use MDF or similar if you prefer, depending on the finished look you require). If treating an existing wall, this means simply installing the B8 over the existing plasterboard (this can be stapled or nailed on initially), taking care to overlap sheets to ensure there are no gaps.

  • A Guide to the Perfect Loft
    a guide to the perfect loft Loft Design Hints & Tips Converting your loft is one of the best ways of extending your home. It will bring you the highest return over any other type of extension when comparing cost to build against added value to your property. Whilst loft conversions are not difficult to do they do need to be carefully designed and planned, especially if your long term goal is to create value. Our team can advise on everything from design, to building regulations and on how best to make the space work for you and your family, whilst keeping to budget and of course adding long term value to your home. 1) Add a Master Bedroom The most common type of loft conversion is for a new Master Bedroom. Why? - Most homes have ample wasted space in the roof to create a huge Bedroom, most can also have an en-suite bathroom and even walk-in wardrobe space. 2) Add Value By converting your loft into a bedroom you naturally create space and of course with house prices rising as much as they have in recent years the value an extra bedroom, bathroom and storage create is normally far greater than the cost of actually converting a loft. 3) Add A Juliet Balcony and French Doors This is a great addition to any Loft bedroom and can easily be incorporated into a dormer if required. This is a must especially if you have got lovely views from your balcony. An all glass Juliet balcony provides unobstructed views when lying in bed.

  • What's the Difference Between a Home Theater and Home Cinema – And
    A white paper by Residential Technology Systems What’s the difference between a home theater and home cinema – and which one is right for you? What is a home theater or media room? Your home theater, also called a media room, is designed to bring an exceptional viewing experience to your home. Plan to enjoy blockbuster movies like never before. And there’s so much more! There’s nothing like watching the Super Bowl, Olympics, or main event with your buddies in unbelievable high-definition – in the comfort of your own home. Or seeing your favorite artist perform in concert, as you relish both the audio and visual qualities. With a quality home theater, you will be engulfed in an amazing, heightened experience. Pinch yourself. You’re really there! Here at Residential Technology Systems, we typically consider the home theater or media room to have these characteristics: ● As a multipurpose media room, the home theater a casual entertaining space that serves as a place to watch movies and TV as well as listen to music. Plus, this space may double as your living room, family room, or den. ● It is designed to bring a heightened visual experience to your home, as you enjoy sports events, movies, concerts, and more. ● Often, the home theater consists of a large, flat-panel television; a multi-channel, surround-sound speaker system; a high-definition AV receiver; and Blu-ray player. (Note that you don’t want “big sound” with a small picture or vice versa!) In terms of technology, your home theater or media room typically would include: ● A video display: either a flat-panel video monitor or a projector with video screen.
