Home theater furniture includes all furniture and/or hardware that supports the weight and dimensions of the audio/video component system and speakers, home theater seating, and even the room decor to finish out the design. Projector ceiling mounts would also be included in this category.
Component racks An A/V component rack should be strong and sturdy enough to properly support the weight of your component system, including the home theater receiver (or preamp/surround sound processor and separate amplifier), and A/V source components such as a Blu-ray Disc player, HDTV receiver or HD DVR, video game console, plus a power surge protector. You want it to be easy to access the back of your components for easy wiring. Many A/V racks feature integrated wire management to conceal and organize A/V cables and speaker wires. Be sure to allow adequate ventilation space between and around components for excess heat to escape!

Speaker stands & mounts If your home theater speaker system will include any bookshelf speakers, small satellite speakers, or even bipole/dipole surround effects speakers, you may need to separately purchase floor stands and/or wall/ceiling mounts to properly set up each of the speakers at the ideal heights and locations throughout the room. They even make individual center channel speaker stands. Some manufacturers include basic mounting hardware integrated into the speaker itself, or included inside the box with the speaker, but many do not. Speaker Stands Online has an excellent selection of speaker stands and mounts! |
Home theater seating Depending on the size of your room and your budget, home theater seating furniture can consist of individual home theater recliner chairs, one or more conjoined rows of two to five seats, and/or even a home theater sectional. A major advantage to choosing home theater seating instead of "conventional" living room furniture sofas, loveseats, and recliners is that you usually get cup holders built-into the armrests to hold a cup, glass, or can of your favorite beverage.

Two advantages to going with individual home theater recliners such as DreamSeat and XZipit pro and college sports team theme recliners instead of rows of conjoined seats are each seated person can control two cup holders, instead of the left/right-handed sharing arrangement of a connected seat row, and you can more easily mix and match individual chair colors, teams, themes, fabrics, styles, etc -- and buy as needed. If you want to truly FEEL the impact and motion produced by the lowest bass frequencies, consider going with seating furniture that includes integrated bass shaking capability, or adding the ButtKicker BKA300 Wireless Home Theater Kit to your seating! Home Theater Seating Online has a nice selection of home theater seating from Bass, Jaymar, Coaster, and more, as well as projector screens and home theater accessories! |
