BOSE PREMIUM HOME THEATER SYSTEM VS SONOS PREMIUM IMMERSIVE SET WITH ARC: COMPARISON AND REVIEW10/28/2022  Making an investment in home audio equipment can be a challenging task. Especially with so many great choices on the market. When it comes to surround sound entertainment, you’ll want to make sure you’re getting the best bang for your buck. Two of the top leading entertainment systems are from Bose and Sonos. We’ve broken down their specs so you can have an easier time deciding which one to choose. Bose Premium Home Theater System First, let’s take a look at Bose. Their best surround sound system for home entertainment features the Bose Smart Sound Bar 900 with Dolby Atmos, Bose Bass Module 700, and two Bose Surround Speakers 700. Each part can be sold separately and matched with other Bose products for a customizable sound system as well. Bose Smart Sound Bar

Sonos Premium Immersive Set With Arc Similar to the Bose system, each part of the Sonos Premium Set can also be sold separately and matched with other Sonos products for a fully customizable system. This particular set features the Arc Premium Smart Sound Bar, Sub (Gen 3) Premium Wireless Subwoofer, and two of the One SL Speakers. Sonos Smart Sound Bar

What We Like About The Bose Home Theater System Bose Premium Home Theater System Website Reviews: 4.4 stars out of 5 The sound bar separates sounds. Music, chatter, and special effects throughout films are kept distinct and noticeable from one another, for a fully immersive, true theater like experience because of the built in Dolby Atmos technology. The bass not only looks better than others out there, but also offers an unparalleled booming effect for its smaller size. It also offers zero distortion, no matter how loud the volume is turned up, which is awesome when listening to music! We also love that there are less wires to deal with when it comes to the surround sound speakers. This offers a lot more placement options without having to hide wires. What We Don’t LikeThere’s nothing negative to say about the Bose sound system. We like everything about it. If anything, we wish the set came in more color options. Overall this isn’t a huge issue, just something to consider when imagining the set up in your space. What We Like About The Sonos Premium Immersive Set With Arc Sonos Premium Immersive Set With Arc Website Reviews: 4.7 stars out of 5 The Sonos Arc Sound Bar has a sleek design that would be a great addition to any space. We especially love that it can adjust to the acoustics of any room size through the trueplay tuning technology. It’s also good to note that this system can be controlled directly through Sonos Voice Control without needing to go through Alexa or Google Assistant. The subwoofer is also extremely likable because of its modernistic design and we’ll never not like a wireless option– plus, this bass can be doubled with another one for an even better entertainment experience in larger spaces. The speakers are also a great addition and powerful enough to get a cinematic theater experience in any sized room. What We Don’t LikeThe speakers in this sound system aren’t wireless, but that’s more of a personal preference depending on how you’ll be arranging your setup. Final ThoughtsOverall, both the Sonos and Bose sound systems are great options with minor differences. After comparing the two, we have two verdicts. For a home theater setup (single room), we’d choose the Bose Premium Home Theater Set. This set would work better in a closed off area with a theater like environment in mind. For an entertainment space (living room + dining area, game room etc.) we’d prefer the Sonos Premium Immersive Set. It can be blended into a larger area and would do well with the powerful speakers alongside trueplay technology.

Why Is An 8K Resolution TV Better Than A 4K TV?
Higher definition is the reason. With better quality pictures, 8K resolution TVs give images a life-likeness. The greater the detail, the better the movie experience. 4k resolution screens are sufficient, but 8K is best. Television Pixels Make A DifferenceThe more pixels that can be fit on the screen, the more crisp the image will be. An 8K resolution TV has 7,680 horizontal pixels and 4,320 vertical pixels (“What is 8K, the highest resolution - TV Buying Guide”). While a 4K screen only has about 3,840 horizontal pixels and 2,160 vertical (“What is the difference between 1080p and 4K resolution?”). To give these numbers more clarity, when the horizontal and vertical pixels are multiplied, 8K has a total pixel count of about 33 million pixels. The un-noticeable, individual pixels are so small that when there are more of them, they offer a clearer viewing. A 4K TV has a little over 8 million pixels total. So, 8K is the clear winner in pixel count. Why Are More Pixels Better Than Less Pixels?
What TV Screen Resolution Should I Use For My Home Theater?If you’re looking for a TV to give you a great theater experience, most modern TVs will do just fine. However, if you want a truly immersive home theater experience, opting for an 8K TV would be best. Paired with a surround sound system and the right home theater atmosphere, you’ll never want to go to a regular movie theater ever again!   What's The Best Seating For A Home Theater?Comfort is key.

These Three Rooms Should Be Added In Your Audio System, Here's WhyThe top places that are usually included in home audio/sound systems are living rooms, kitchens, and bedrooms. The “not so obvious” rooms get overlooked, leaving people using their new sound system only to realize they should've added a few more rooms. If you’re considering installing a home audio system, or currently have one but want to include more rooms, we recommend the following three. BathroomsBathrooms. Not only can music make bath time fun for kids and relaxing for adults, an automated speaker system is also safe for everyone. Audio systems can be configured to work with your security system or your phone to alert you of suspicious activity, important information, or if someone is at the door. Having this setting on while in the shower can be pretty useful, as most times the bathroom is the place we aren’t aware of emergency calls, texts, break ins, or doorbells. You can allow certain calls to come through, or even be reminded of certain events and time limits. The safety benefits are a reason in itself for the bathroom to be part of your home audio system.
GaragesThe garage is a must, if you’re someone who spends a lot of time there. Mechanics understand this. Being able to listen to music while working, playing, sorting, sifting, entertaining, crafting, planting, conversing, or whatever you do, in the garage, is nice. Along with the added security benefits listed above, you could be in the garage all day and not worry about what's going on in the house.  Walk In ClosetsLast but not least, walk in closets! Listening to music while picking out clothes and getting ready in the morning might be what sets the tone for your whole day. You could also listen to the morning news, or even better, put on your favorite podcast.  Rooms To ConsiderSome other rooms to include would also be baby rooms and home offices. Listening to work/study music while in the office helps improve “both productivity and cognitive performance” to stay focused and get things done quicker. Similarly, babies calm down and fall asleep faster while listening to certain sounds that make curious brains focus and get comfortable for bed.

You pick and choose what kind of car you want based on certain features that usually include model, make, color, bluetooth capabilities, gas or electric and so on. There will be a price range that depends on the features and type of car you’re looking for. So, the price of a home or business theater depends on what you want, what you don’t want, and the features you’d sacrifice to get the price that works with your budget. The basic necessities of a theater installation include a few core features that you can’t have one without. The same way any car has core features in order to run, like a motor, a steering wheel, a windshield and other accessories. So, what are these core features and how much do they cost? 
 After deciding between the core products and evaluating their prices, you can then have fun looking into the personalized features that make the theater everything you envision. What are some of the additives that would make your theater significant?
Beyond styling and personalized additives, there’s also the cost of installment. Whether you choose to hire a professional installation company like We Are More, or to do the installation on your own, there will be extra costs tacked on to the install. When it comes to implementing the core aspects or the extra features, there are benefits to hiring professionals in terms of cost, experience, and time. All in all, a ballpark/average cost of a home/business theater can range from $2,000 to around $35,000. The average price conclusion is around $17,500.
These costs of all the above will vary depending on preference, but they each serve as a nice contribution to the overall look and feel of your personalized theater space. We know that there’s a lot to choose from, which can make the process of creating a personalized theater a little overwhelming. Don’t worry, We Are More offers design assistance and customization guidance for everyone. You can end up with either exactly what you want or, if you don’t know what you want, the best quality and reasonably priced items with We Are More’s help. What's the cost of your new home theater?  Don’t Hire An Installation Crew If You Can Utilize These 7 Lighting Installation Directions
Were these instructions helpful? Were those directions lame or what? Little to no details, no accurate descriptions, no visuals for better understanding, no tips or tricks, nothing valuable! Since you’re reading this post, you probably aren’t a technician. Everything I listed is everything I know about how to install lighting, but I don’t actually know how to install lights, nor have I ever installed them. I'm not a technician! If I followed my own directions above, I’d probably end up with a mess of drywall and a lot of repairs. Why does all that matter? Most individuals are fully capable of installing their own products. By capable, I mean that they have the potential to learn how to do things. We are all gifted with a brain at birth (I hope you can hear my comedic tone). It’s the utilization of brain power that gives people (like me) a reason to hire someone else to do the work. No one wants to take hours learning about something they aren't interested in. We want solutions quickly! Fast! Speedy! Āwīwī! But we don’t want to take the time to get there. Learning (literally anything) is an on-going process.  That’s why we are able to make a living out of work, we like to do things that not everyone wants to do. Technicians at We Are More like installing things. They spend countless hours on and off the clock learning their skill so that clients don’t have to. When a project takes a technician only a few minutes to do, they are not being paid for a few minutes on the job. They are being paid for the years they’ve spent in their profession. A single installation that would otherwise take the average DIY person days to do will take a professional installation team a few hours. They know exactly how to do the job. No time is wasted. Have you ever watched a technician install lighting? Configured wiring? Mounted a variation of light fixtures? They don’t need to search up a YouTube video of DIYs or look at Pinterest for design ideas. Electricians know what they are doing. The point of all this; next time you need help on installation, ask a professional. Call a company that specializes in that field of work. Talk to a friend who's a technician/electrician.
