Inside a 9.4.6 Dolby Atmos Home Theater Build in Fort Payne, Alabama
At Dreamedia, we take pride in delivering high-performance home theaters tailored to each client’s vision. This recent Dreamedia Plus project in Fort Payne, Alabama, showcases the full scope of what’s possible when planning, collaboration, and premium brands come together in harmony.
The Dream Media Plus Experience
This home theater was the result of a two-year collaboration with our client. From initial consultation to final calibration, we worked together every step of the way. The customer carved out a dedicated space in the basement and coordinated the remodel to integrate a complete theater from the ground up.
System Overview: 9.4.6 Dolby Atmos Excellence
Built with an immersive 9.4.6 Dolby Atmos configuration, this theater includes:
- Front, surround, and rear speakers: Focal 1000 series in-wall LCRs
- Overhead channels: Six Atmos speakers placed strategically in the ceiling
- Subwoofers: Four SVS PB16s, one in each corner for powerful bass response
- Display: JVC NZ800 projector, housed behind the room in a sound-isolated enclosure
- Screen: 150" acoustically transparent woven screen
The result is a cinematic space designed for both performance and simplicity. With Control4 automation, the user can hit one button and enjoy the full experience without lifting a finger.
Processing, Source, and Control
To ensure the best performance, the system features:
- Audio Processing: Trinnov Altitude 16 with Amplitude 16 amps
- Video Processing: MadVR Envy Core for superior tone mapping and dynamic contrast
- Source: Kaleidescape Strato C with 8TB storage, offering lossless audio and video playback
- Streaming: Apple TV and Control4 Halo remote for seamless control
Acoustics and Design
Room acoustics were optimized using Art Novion’s Cinema Series panels. These modular panels provide a beautiful aesthetic while allowing for a mix of absorption and diffusion, maintaining performance without compromising design.
Installation was fast and efficient, saving labor time while delivering a polished, symmetrical look.
Comfort Meets Performance
To complete the room, we installed Valencia Tuscany Ultimate Luxury Edition seating—adding elegance and comfort for long movie nights.
