Are you looking to install a top-notch home audio system? With the right components, installation, and setup, your music listening experience can be taken to the next level, whether you are using an indoor or an outdoor sound system.
Over the last 25 years, the home entertainment industry has significantly changed how we experience and interact with audio and video technology. With the rise of smart devices and advancements in technology, today's home theater systems are more sophisticated and user-friendly than ever before. In this article, we will delve into the significant advances in home audio and video over the past quarter-century and explore how smart devices have revolutionized the way we consume media.
Don't rule out switching to a larger size based on assumptions, but keep these TV buying tips in mind.
If it's been a while since you last bought a TV, you might be surprised to learn that what's considered "big" has changed a lot. These days even 42 and 50 inches are barely considered "midsize." This is thanks to manufacturers being able to make larger screens more cheaply, and also 4K and 8K resolutions making huge TVs more usable. Ultraslim designs also mean that larger screens take up less space.
So if you're considering a new TV, it's understandable if you're thinking of getting the same size, give or take a few inches. But the reality is, you can probably go a lot bigger. How big? Maybe you don't need a TV the size of a wall or a TV that is a wall, but in most homes a 65- or 75-inch TV will fit just fine.
Overall our advice is simple: Get as big a TV as you can afford. The longer answer depends on your room, your seating distance and the acceptance factor of any cohabiting co-deciders. Here's how to figure out how big you can go.

Are you trying to figure out what sound system you should purchase for your home? Learn about some of the advantages of using a Sonos home sound system.
It’s Wireless
The major benefit of any wireless system is not having to deal with wires. You can avoid the following issues:
- Making sure everything is plugged into the right place
- Starting over from square one when the wires don’t reach the desired speaker location
- Worrying about a messy, cluttered look with wires all over the place
- Spending extra time trying to hide the wires
Plain and simple, going wireless gives your space a cleaner look without all the extra work.
Calls Don’t Disrupt Your Music
Most wireless speakers systems stream music via Bluetooth connection. This means that your music is constantly getting disrupted whenever you receive a text or phone call.
With Sonos systems, music is streamed through a wireless Internet connection, meaning you won’t have to worry about interruptions. The music just keeps playing!
The world we live in today has become increasingly connected. Not long ago, most people only had a desktop computer and maybe, a laptop computer that needed access to the Internet or maybe a network-connected printer. In just a few short years it seems that every device in our lives can now communicate with other devices, store data on some remote location, automate some process, or allow us to communicate with each other in new and exciting ways. In fact, it is estimated that the number of connected devices will exceed 50 billion by the year 2020. It is not an exaggeration to compare a home’s network to the digital “backbone” of your home that all other home technologies rely on.
This means that the Wi-Fi and the local area networks (LANs) within people’s homes have become substantially more robust in a very short period of time. It also means that consumers may have negative experiences using networking hardware not engineered for today’s higher bandwidth demands and the massive increase in the quantity of devices. This has become abundantly clear, especially now when parents and kids are all working from home in this COVID environment. This article explains why an enterprise-grade network is a MUST in every luxury home.
