Home Theater Setup Help
A home theater setup is the very height of nerdish luxury. It’s not just about the technology that makes it happen. It’s about that magical moment of sitting down in the comfort of your own home and being transported to another world. Sure you can go to the movies for the same escapism, but you can’t wear your Star Wars pajamas. You can’t stretch out on the sofa with a bowl of delicious snacks balanced on your midriff. You definitely can’t take your pet iguana to the movies.
This luxury does not come without serious time, effort and technological knowhow! Choosing the right equipment within a budget and then installing it properly requires much nerd wisdom. Nerds On Call offers a wide variety of services to get your home theater working perfectly, from selecting the right equipment through to assembling it into a smoothly functioning network.
If you need help with your home theater, call us at 1-800-919-6373 or fill out our handy contact form. We’ll leap into action for you. Here are the home theater setup services we provide.
Home theater selection
The first stop on your pilgrimage to home theater Shangri La is to take advantage of our home theater selection service. We won’t just throw an expensive shopping list at you and send you on your way. We’ll sit down with you and talk about your budget, your room layout and the kinds of entertainment you’re interested in. We can even go shopping with you to give you a nerd’s eye view of the technology! Needless to say, we’ll also help you install it and get it functioning perfectly.

Surround sound and speaker setup
Then there’s our surround sound and speaker setup service. Sound is kind of a big deal when it comes to getting the maximum entertainment oomph from a movie. Research is clear that what we hear is far more powerful than what we see in instantly evoking a strong reaction. The challenge is getting your sound just right. There’s a lot to it! First, there’s the nerdy science of finding the right speaker choice for your home. Then there’s the delicate art of optimizing those speakers to produce the best surround sound experience. We’ll do a complete surround sound installation for you and if any of your existing speakers aren’t functioning correctly, we’ll fix those issues too.

Parental controls
If you’ve got kids in the house, parental controls can give a lot of peace of mind. There’s a lot of stuff out there which isn’t suitable for kids and it’s available through all kinds of technologies: home theater, gaming consoles, handheld devices, TV. Fortunately, parental control software can be installed to provide all kinds of protection, from limiting time online, to filtering content to alerting parents to cyber-bullying and other dangerous activity. We won’t just install parental control software and leave you to figure it out! We can sit down with you and give you clear, simple advice on how to use it effectively.

Home network integration

But are your devices working together like a well-trained team of ninjas? Can you send your phone content to your TV? Can you print to the other side of the house? Are you able to share files with everyone in your house as easily as sharing a cookie? This is the full nerdish power of home network integration. We’ll do whatever it takes to get your home networked. We’ll improve your WiFI performance. We’ll configure your devices to play nice.
