3 of the Best Game Room Technology Upgrades for Summertime Fun
Here in Indiana, there’s no better time for entertaining than the summer.
The cold of winter and early spring will be gone, and warm temperatures mean it will be the perfect time to host guests or family gatherings at your house.
Why not prepare your home with a custom technology upgrade?
You can add outdoor speakers, for example. But in this post, we’ll explore some indoor summer upgrades you can make for those times when outdoor entertaining might not be ideal – such as during a thunderstorm or rain shower.
Below, we reveal three of the best game room upgrades you can make to the media room design in your Indianapolis home, just in time for this summer.

Distributed Audio
During your house parties, your game room might be a popular destination – whether it’s for watching the big game, playing pool, or just hanging out.
Instead of relying on conversation to carry the atmosphere in your game room, consider a professional audio solution.
Here’s what that means for you: Our team of sound system installation experts will craft a connected speaker solution throughout your game room so that guests will enjoy music in all areas.
From your control application on your smartphone or tablet, select your favorite Spotify playlist or SiriusXM station, and instantly music will play from your game room speakers – adding to the atmosphere of your next gathering.
One common concern we receive regarding distributed audio systems is whether speakers must be in plain sight, at risk of children or pets harming them. Our answer is no.
In fact, you can feature in-wall or in-ceiling speakers throughout your space so that they are entirely hidden from view. Sound quality will remain unaffected, and your audio components will remain secure.
Video Wall
Perhaps you use your family’s game room as a place to gather to watch TV.
In this hybrid media room design, not only do you feature on-screen entertainment but also a space for playing games – whether it’s a ping-pong or pool table, foosball or air hockey set, or more.
Instead of featuring just one screen, however, why not upgrade to a setup featuring multiple, large flatscreen TVs?
You can “wow” your guests with a custom video wall arrangement – which will include several wall-mounted 4K Ultra HD TVs designed to look like one giant screen, each TV operating either independently or jointly.
We all know this summer will feature major sporting events, from the ongoing Major League Baseball season to the FIFA World Cup, to the start of football season, and more. Imagine sitting down with guests as you all watch multiple games simultaneously through your game room’s video wall setup.
When the big game approaches, your screens can work in unison to produce one encompassing image.
Integrated Technology Control
Especially if you consider adding a distributed audio system or a video wall to your existing game room design this summer, you might have plenty of technology you will need to control.
But you don’t have to rely on remotes to manage your devices.
Our team can integrate the controls for your game room technologies – including your lights, motorized shades, speakers, TVs, additional audio and video sources, and more – and merge them into a single system.
From this custom control setup, you can manage every component of your game room through the convenience of an in-wall touchscreen panel or your smartphone or tablet.
Your easy-to-maneuver control interface acts as an encompassing remote – with just the tap on your screen, you can manage independent TVs on your video wall, dim the lights, lower your shades, or change the music playing from your game room speakers.
This not only makes summer entertaining customizable but also convenient and efficient.
