#SounDay SounDay Sounday!!! It’s Sunday somewhere! Well, let's see how this goes, huh?⠀ ⠀ @popsci tells us "How to make our living room feel more like a movie theater" since we can't go to a lot of #MovieTheaters right now.⠀ ⠀ How do you do that? They recommend:⠀ --Get Some Backlight--According to the American Academy of Ophthalmology, a bright screen in a dark setting makes your eyes work harder, which causes fatigue. Adding some light behind the screen also makes the darkest parts of your screen seem even darker while you watch. Darker blacks in the picture increase perceived contrast, which makes the scenes seem punchier.⠀ ⠀ --Position Your TV* Correctly--Ideally, your eyeline will fall right on the centerline of the TV. Depending on your seating arrangement, that may be even lower than you expected. You have fewer seats so finding a sweet spot should be a lot easier. Sit down and find out where you look and there's your center.⠀ *Or #HomeTheaterScreen - We hope you have a screen! HA! ⠀ --Step Up Your Sound--To us, this is the biggest difference* between the #HomeTheater and the huge movie theater. Going to the movies means tremendous sound. They have speakers everywhere and use surround sound to enhance the movie. "If you’re just jumping into surround sound, a soundbar with @dolbyatmosdolby built in is a great place to start for easy setup and pronounced directional effects. Atmos attempts to create a bubble of sound around the viewer that makes the viewing experience more convincing."⠀ *Other than that HUGE Screen, of course!⠀ ⠀ --Switch On #Cinema Mode--"If you never dig into the various modes on your TV, you might be missing out on some performance. For instance, gaming mode on most televisions tries to prioritize responsiveness so you don’t notice lag between the controller and the screen as your play....Cinema mode is a bit different. You’ll likely notice that it’s a bit more subdued in terms of brightness and saturation than the typical mode you use for watching TV."⠀ ⠀ --Turn Off Your Phone--"Every time you look at your phone, your eyes will have to adjust again to the relative brightness and distance of the screen, https://www.instagram.com/p/CIfI2Y2Aplg/?igshid=umunl4r4xl6y
