Football Season Is Here, but Are You Game Day Ready?

Revamp Your Home Entertainment Experience Before Inviting Your Friends Over
Football season has a way of turning into an entire season of hosting. What starts as a Sunday afternoon game quickly becomes a run of watch parties, movie nights, and eventually holiday gatherings that stretch clear through the new year. A home theater that isn't ready for that stretch of constant entertainment shows it fast, usually in the middle of a party when someone has to fumble with three remotes just to turn the volume down.

Get Picture and Sound Right From the Start
A professionally designed home theater designed using the Crestron or Control4 platforms will simplify your home entertainment controls. Picture quality will hold up under fast sports motion, and audio will fills the room evenly instead of favoring the front row. The best part is that there’s one interface to learn, and once you do, every media source, and even your lighting, shades, and climate control systems, can integrate into the same easy-to-use platform.
The controls for you home audio/video system disappear into the background, exactly where it belongs during a good game or a great film.
The display and speakers get most of the attention, but calibration is what really immerses you into the action on screen. Screen size relative to seating distance, speaker placement tuned to the room's acoustics, and a receiver set up to handle both a fast-paced game broadcast and a dramatic film without constant volume adjustments all come from professional design from Lifestyle Technologies.
Let Lighting Set the Scene for Better Entertainment
Lighting sets the tone right as anyone walks into the room and well before kickoff. Ketra and Lutron systems let a Boca Raton home shift from bright and functional while guests settle in, to a theater-dark space once the game or movie starts, all from one keypad. The same system can hold a separate scene for a holiday dinner later in the season, so the room is easily adaptable to whatever the evening calls for.
Carry the Entertainment Experience Beyond the Theater
Hosting rarely stays contained to one room. A distributed audio system carries the broadcast or the playlist from the theater into the kitchen and out to the patio, so conversation in one room and the game in another never compete for attention. Coastal Source speakers extend that same experience outdoors, built to handle Florida humidity and heat without losing performance quality season after season.
Automated Scenes Are Only a Tap or Voice Command Away
None of the technology in your home needs to be complicated. An intuitive control interface puts every scene, from cocktail hour to kickoff to closing credits, one tap away. Guests never see the wiring, racks, or schematics that made the advanced technology possible; they only need to be able to enjoy the results so their lifestyle feels effortlessly put together.
Simplicity extends to anyone stepping in to help host. A guest or family member doesn't need to know which input the cable box is connected to or where the subwoofer level is hidden in a menu. One button will get the room ready, which matters as much on a night after work during the week as it does with a house full of people cheering on opposing teams.
Get Ready for Every Season of Hosting
The technology matters, but so does who installs and maintains it. Consider Lifestyle Technologies as your white-glove integration partner, designing the system around how your household really entertains friends and family. Our post-installation service plans will keep your systems up to date and provide a speedy response should you ever experience any issues.
Football season is really just the opening act. Getting the system dialed in now means it's ready to carry you from football season straight into holiday hosting, family movie nights, and everything in between.
