The Common Element in the Best Entertainment Spaces: High-End Audio

As a luxury smart home integrator and Hi-Fi expert, Electronic Concepts has designed and installed some of the top home entertainment spaces in Franklin Lakes, NJ, and the surrounding areas. These spaces include premier outdoor entertainment installations, transforming backyards with the latest outdoor 4K TVs, and enchanting landscape lighting. 

We’ve integrated luxury home theaters with handcrafted acoustically transparent movie screens and the newest native 4K HDR projectors. Bedrooms, living rooms, garages, and basements have turned into media rooms with large flat-screen 4K HDR TVs that disappear when not in use, plush sectionals, and the ultimate gaming chairs designed for marathon video game competitions. 

To say we've seen our share of home entertainment meccas would be an understatement. However, there's one thing we haven't mentioned that every one of these spaces has in common—the high-end audio that immerses the listener in the moment. In our experience, it’s the defining element. You can have top-end video, but without the immersive sound field and crystal-clear audio, you’ll never experience the captivating moments that take you to another world and beyond.

Let’s explore the makings of a high-end audio system.

What Is High-End Audio?

Ask 10 audiophiles this question, and you’ll likely get several different answers. After all, how we enjoy audio is different for everyone. What sounds warm to one person may sound different to someone else. It’s the same reason why very few “audio experts” agree on the best loudspeaker in the world. 

One way to determine high-performance audio is to close your eyes. In the right room with the right acoustics and speaker placement, you’ll experience the soundstage surrounding you. You're no longer in a room; you're at the concert. You hear each sound in crystal-clear detail, from each note in the guitar riff to the breathtaking melody carried by the vocalist. You can listen to your favorite vinyl that you've heard a hundred times, and, in this space, it's as though you're listening to it for the first time. 

Fair warning is in order: Once you experience this immersive audio experience, there’s no going back.

Our Partners

At Electronic Concepts, we partner with numerous high-performance audio brands. A few of the many include JL Audio, Meridian Audio, Lyngdorf, and Bowers & Wilkins. As the demand for home entertainment grew, these high-performance audio brands heeded the call, with many developing lines designed for home theaters and outdoor entertainment. 

For example, Meridian manufactured the world’s first digital surround controller and continues to pioneer solutions for home theater systems. Almost all high-performance brands have created nearly invisible architectural in-wall and in-ceiling loudspeakers, offering the perfect solution for whole-home audio. When integrated with your home automation platform, you can effortlessly select the audio source and the room in which you want to hear it. 

 

Of course, talking about high-end audio is much different than hearing it. That’s why we created a Hi-Fi and home automation showroom in northern New Jersey.
