A Home Theater Setup in a Tribeca High-Rise

The client wanted a real cinema at home in a Tribeca high-rise apartment. We hung a 120-inch screen from the concrete ceiling, mounted a Sony 4K laser projector, hid the wiring, and added KEF speakers, a Denon receiver and one remote for everything. Sonos also plays in the office and the kitchen.

A 120-inch screen for a Tribeca cinema room

The client wanted a real cinema room in a Tribeca high-rise apartment, with a 4K laser projector and a 120-inch screen.

  • 120-inch screen
  • 4K laser projector
  • Concrete ceiling

Before any drilling, the crew moved the couch, covered the furniture and rolled up the rug. The Sony 4K HDR laser projector went up on a ceiling mount, fixed into the wood framing behind the drywall. The 120-inch Dragonfly screen hangs from the concrete part of the ceiling. The crew anchored it with four deep holes, drilled with a heavy-duty drill, so it hangs straight and stays put. Once both were up, the crew calibrated the picture to the screen.

  • A Sony VPL-XW5000ES native 4K HDR laser projector was mounted to the ceiling, fixed into the wood framing behind the drywall.
  • A Dragonfly 120-inch matte white projection screen was anchored into the concrete ceiling with four drilled holes.
  • The crew moved the couch, covered the furniture and rolled up the rug before the work began.
  • The projector and screen were calibrated after installation.

Hiding the wiring across drywall and concrete

The cinema room ceiling is part drywall and part concrete, so the crew planned a cable route for each.

  • Cables inside the drywall
  • Speaker wire under the carpet
Read more

Where the ceiling is drywall, the crew ran the power and signal cables inside it, out of sight. Where it is concrete, they ran the cables neatly along the surface in a clean cable cover to a box near the ceiling. A long active 8K HDMI cable carries the picture to the projector. The speaker cables run behind the couch and under the carpet, so nothing crosses the floor.

  • Low- and high-voltage cables were run inside the drywall.
  • On the concrete ceiling, the cables were run on the surface in cable management to a box near the ceiling.
  • Speaker cables were run behind the couch and under the carpet.
  • An active 8K HDMI cable carries the signal on the long run to the projector.

KEF speakers and a Denon receiver for cinema sound

White KEF speakers and a 9.4-channel Denon receiver give the cinema room the sound to match a 120-inch picture.

  • 9.4-channel receiver
  • KEF Q Meta speakers
  • Sonos Port
Read more

Two KEF Q11 Meta floorstanding speakers stand at the front of the room, with two KEF Q4 Meta speakers on the wall and a KEF Kube 8 MIE subwoofer for the low end. Everything runs through a Denon AVR-X3800H 9.4-channel 8K receiver. A Sonos Port links the receiver to the rest of the client's Sonos system, so music from any Sonos app plays through the cinema speakers. The PS5, an Apple TV 4K and the client's cable box all connect to the receiver.

  • A Denon AVR-X3800H 9.4-channel 8K receiver drives the cinema room sound.
  • Two white KEF Q11 Meta floorstanding speakers, two white KEF Q4 Meta on-wall speakers and a KEF Kube 8 MIE subwoofer were installed.
  • A Sonos Port streams the client's Sonos system into the receiver.
  • A PS5, an Apple TV 4K and the client's cable box were connected.

One remote for the projector, the sound, Apple TV and cable

Instead of a pile of remotes, the client got one touchscreen remote for the whole cinema room.

  • AVA Cinema Remote
Read more

The crew set up an AVA Cinema Remote, an aluminium remote with a touchscreen. One remote now runs the projector, the receiver, the Apple TV, the cable box and Sonos. The PS5 and the Apple TV were set up to work together smoothly, so movie night or a game starts without hunting for the right input.

  • An AVA Cinema Remote controls the receiver, the projector, the Apple TV, the cable box and Sonos.
  • The receiver was set up so one remote controls the speakers, the picture and the cable.

    Sebastian and Josie were absolute professionals and gentlemen. Josue arranged the appointment and kept on top of scheduling. It was seamless and the work was done the next day. Sebastian was a superstar. My TV had already been mounted but there were wires all over the place which were driving me crazy. He practically made the wire’s disappear. He then put my Roku behind the TV and connected the sound bar. He said I didn’t really need cable box bc Spectrum has streaming. I’m saving 40 dollars a month now. I have a hearing impediment and Sebastian set up my phone with Roku app so that I can now listen to sound with earbuds. The sound bar is awesome. No complaints from neighbors about noise now. I had 4 different remotes now I only need one. I’m no longer confused about operating the system. I was so lucky to have found TV Guys. I’d give them a six bit rating only goes up to 5🙂

    The tv mounting was fantastic from start to finish. They got the job done the next day. My co-op has burdensome insurance and liability requirements which Josue handled like a champ. And Stephen, the installer was sublime. My concrete wall was a bear. He did a meticulous s job and left my apartment cleaner than when he came. I highly recommend!

    I had an excellent experience from beginning to end! Cristian, the sales representative, was professional, friendly, and made the entire process simple and stress-free. He clearly explained everything and made sure I received exactly what I needed. Alejandro, the technician, did an amazing job mounting two TVs in my home. He arrived on time, worked carefully and efficiently, and made sure both TVs were perfectly positioned, level, and securely installed. He was respectful of my home and left everything clean and organized. The customer service and quality of work were outstanding. I highly recommend this company, and especially Cristian and Alejandro, to anyone looking for professional TV-mounting services. Five-star service all around! Thankyou
