High-definition TVs produce stunning pictures, with lifelike color and detail, but they don’t offer big, realistic sound for your movies, shows, or the big game.

To make the most of your entertainment, combine a great picture with full, engaging home theater sound. You’ve got plenty of options for getting great home theater installations, from multi-speaker home theater systems to simple one-speaker solutions.

A traditional component home theater system, also known as a surround sound system, consists of a TV, a home theater receiver, and speakers. For the very best home theater experience, this is what we recommend.

A receiver is the centerpiece of your home theater equipment. In addition to providing surround sound processing and the power to drive your speakers, today’s home theater receivers act as a connection hub for all your audio/video sources and your TV.

Speakers connect to your receiver to produce the sound you’ll hear. A traditional surround sound system consists of at least five speakers plus a powered subwoofer. You have plenty of options when it comes to speakers, from floor-standing towers to in-ceiling models to complete surround sound speaker packages.

A high-quality home theater system installed in your home will transform your den into an immersive theater experience. It will immediately become the room of choice for family, friends and guests to hang out.

Smart home equipment like the Control4 can be installed giving you seamless control over all your home theater equipment, in addition to controlling the lights, the sound, the thermostat, the blinds, shades, and fans. With voice control you are in charge without lifting a finger. Packages can be installed in just 1 day and convert your ordinary home into a Smart Home.

Encino is an enclave of the San Fernando Valley infamous for being mentioned in Frank Zappa’s 1982 hit song “Valley Girl”.

Encino starts in the south at the foot of the Santa Monica Mountains, just north of Bel Air and Brentwood, with Sherman Oaks to the east, Reseda to the north, and Tarzana to the west. It is sliced through by a bustling section of Ventura Blvd.

It all began in 1769, when the Portola Expedition climbed over the Sepulveda Pass and stayed near what is now Los Encinos State Historic Park. The name Encino means “evergreen” or “oak” in Spanish and is said to refer to The Encino Oak Tree that resided for 1000 years in an area that became Louise Avenue near Ventura Blvd. Sadly, it was felled by the El Nino storms of 1998 and now only a stump and a plaque remains.

According to many residents, Encino has a small-town feel, with amenities within walking distance. The average lot size is bigger than other areas of the city, making certain blocks very quiet and rural.
