Small 4-seat Home Theater on the North Sea

Once again, our esteemed German partners at Grobi.tv and Heimkinobau.de have outdone themselves. This time, they ingeniously transformed a mere 17-square-meter space into a fully equipped home theater, and their work is truly commendable!

Back in January 2024, Daria and Besfort reached out to the installers with a vision: they wanted to create their own home theater on the picturesque coast of Wurster, overlooking the North Sea. Before making their decision, the customers visited the Heimkinobau demo cinema and were impressed by the performance of the MAG Theatron loudspeakers installed there.​ Holger Franz, the expert behind the project, visited the site, meticulously measuring and initiating the design process. Remarkably, by July, their dream home theater was fully realized.

It was not an easy mission, considering the room dimensions of just 3.42 x 4.88 meters with a ceiling height of 2.6 meters. Yet, even in such a confined space, they successfully installed a screen with a visible width of 2.8 meters and a 4K laser projector, the EPSON LS12000B.

When it came to selecting audio equipment, the choice was evident: the Experience Series from MAG Theatron proved ideal for compact spaces, yet it managed to deliver the same dynamic impact and cinematic expression found in larger theaters. For behind-the-screen speakers, they used 3 x MAG Theatron M8s, with 4 x MAG Theatron S6s for surround sound, and low-profile MAG Theatron CS44s for the top surrounds. Two MAG Theatron SB18 subwoofers completed the setup.

The clients are overjoyed with the outcome. Despite its cozy dimensions, the theater delivers a powerful sound experience that renders the room’s size inconsequential—immersing viewers in remarkable volume. And beyond its primary role as a movie screening haven, the theater doubles as a gaming room. A PlayStation 5 running in 4K at 120Hz with surround sound makes the gaming experience incredibly immersive, literally drawing players into the action.
