The home entertainment landscape is about to experience a period of fundamental change, impacting all aspects of the custom install business. According to industry market research company GfK, sales of 4K Ultra HD TVs will top one million units for the first time this year, propelling the technology into the consumer mainstream for the first time. Netflix and Amazon have already begun to over 4K OTT services to connected devices. BT is expected to begin an Internet delivered 4K sports subscription service this summer, and Sky is certain to be close behind.

Audio is similarly evolving. 3D sound systems such as Dolby Atmos, Auro-3D and DTS:X, as well as high resolution streaming audio services, are changing the nature of audio entertainment.  Consumer expectations across the board are increasing –if your business is not offering ultra HD entertainment and distribution solutions it’s going to be left behind.

The choice facing our industry is simple: be better…or be Betamax.

The Future Of Home Cinema, organized by Inside Out, will help you define your custom install proposition, and advise how you can leverage new technologies successfully. This exciting one-day event will offer you the opportunity to better understand the technologies shifting the industry ahead today, and specify accordingly. You’ll also be the first in the country to see some of the world’s most exciting 4K technology.
