Home Theater Design and Build

Built Around Your Room. Designed for How You Watch.

Before we spec a single piece of equipment, we measure your room, assess the acoustics, and understand how you use the space. Then we design a system that sounds like it was built for that specific room — because it was.

Dedicated Theater Rooms

  • 4K and laser projection systems (Epson, Sony, BenQ, JVC)
  • Fixed-frame and motorized projection screens
  • Dolby Atmos 7.2.4 and 9.2.4 surround sound
  • In-wall and in-ceiling speaker systems
  • Custom tiered seating platforms
  • LED bias and accent lighting control
  • Acoustic treatment and room calibration
  • Rack-mounted equipment with clean cable management
  • Universal control systems (Control4, RTI)

Media Room Conversions

  • Large-format 4K displays (85 to 110 inch)
  • Soundbars and 5.1 and 7.1 surround upgrades
  • Hidden wire and in-wall power solutions
  • Streaming and source device integration
  • Existing room retrofits with minimal disruption

The KZ Difference

The Same Team, Start to Finish.

Every home theater we build is installed by Kelly, Billy, or Julian. We do not hand your project to a crew you have never met. Every system is calibrated by the person who designed it.

We have been doing this since 1997. We design around the problems that make theaters disappointing: rooms that echo, systems that feel unbalanced, equipment that will not integrate. Every decision starts with the room.

New Construction

Builder-Ready Pre-Wire

We work with custom home builders throughout the Hill Country and San Antonio. Pre-wire, rough-in, trim-out, programming, and the homeowner walkthrough. Nine active builder relationships — the longest running since 2009.

Home Theater Installation — Frequently Asked Questions

Home theater costs vary based on scope. A mid-tier dedicated theater room typically runs $15,000-$40,000 installed.

We give you a detailed quote after seeing the space.

We handle the full project: pre-wire, equipment selection, finish installation, calibration, and the homeowner walkthrough. We work with your builder during new construction or handle the retrofit ourselves in existing homes.

We install Epson, Sony, BenQ, and JVC 4K projectors depending on room size, ambient light, and budget. For high-end dedicated theaters, Sony laser projectors deliver exceptional image quality. We match the projector to your room.

Yes. Retrofit installs in finished rooms require fishing wire through walls and ceilings. We have done hundreds of these. Drywall impact is minimal. We will assess the specific room and tell you exactly what is involved before we start.

Dolby Atmos adds overhead sound channels so audio moves three-dimensionally around the room. For a dedicated room we typically recommend it. For a living room media setup, a standard 5.1 or 7.1 system often makes more practical sense. We give you an honest recommendation based on your space.

A full dedicated theater room typically takes two to four days after rough-in. A media room conversion is usually one to two days. We give you a timeline before we start and stick to it.
