Home theater is a type of entertainment system that mimics the experience of watching a movie at the cinema. This type of system usually features a large-screen television, surround-sound audio, and more. Below are some of the home theater trends to keep an eye on this year. 

Home Theater Entertainment System Trends for 2020

1. Voice Control

You have probably wasted hours of your life searching for the TV remote. In fact, the problem has worsened over the past few years, since many home entertainment systems require owners to manage numerous remote controls: one for the DVD player, one for the TV, a third for the audio equipment, and another to change TV channels.

Voice control simplifies matters by eliminating these devices altogether. Instead, you can speak the commands you want, and your home theater system responds.

2. Ultra-short Throw Projectors

Projectors offer the same look and feel as the cinema. The images can be larger and clearer at less expense. Moreover, reflected light is less of an eye-strain than what’s emitted from traditional televisions.

However, traditional projectors require considerable space between the device and the projection surface. This makes them unsuitable for smaller rooms.

Ultra-short throw projectors remedy this and only require inches between the projector and the screen. They are more convenient for installation in small- to medium-sized theater rooms.

3. Multiple Displays

A multi-screen home theater center lets you watch multiple sporting events at once. It also lets kids play video games on one while parents chill out with a movie on another.

Since flat screen TVs take up so little room—and are so inexpensive—in comparison to the console sets of the previous century, there is no reason to limit yourself to just one.
