A world-class home cinema starts with the room itself. Before selecting a single piece of equipment, the acoustic and visual characteristics of the space need to be understood and optimized.
Room Acoustics First
The room is the most important component in any cinema system. Anthem's ARC (Anthem Room Correction) technology uses scientific measurement to analyze and compensate for the room's acoustic characteristics, delivering optimized sound regardless of the space's shape or size.
Speaker Selection & Placement
Paradigm speakers are engineered for low distortion and high dynamic range. For a Dolby Atmos 7.1.4 setup, you'll need front, center, and surround speakers at ear height, plus four ceiling-mounted height channels for the immersive overhead layer.
The Processing Heart
The Anthem AVM 90 is our flagship recommendation for cinema processing. With 15.4 channels of decoding, HDBaseT input, and Anthem Room Correction Gen 2, it handles everything from casual streaming to reference-grade Dolby Atmos content.
