Expert Home Theater Installation
Seamless integration and precise tuning of all systems for optimal performance and reliability — from a dedicated basement cinema to a living-room media room.
A great home theater is more than a big TV and a soundbar. It's an intentional environment where every decision — from screen size and projector placement to speaker positioning and acoustic treatment — serves the goal of creating an immersive, fatigue-free viewing experience. TekScene designs and installs home theaters that perform exactly the way they should, every time you press play.
We work with homeowners across the Columbia, SC metro area, from Chapin and Irmo to Lexington, Lake Murray, and beyond. Whether you're converting a dedicated room into a true cinema or integrating a premium AV system into an open living space, we handle every step: equipment selection, installation, cable management, and final configuration — so your system is ready to enjoy from day one.
What We Do
Equipment Selection & Procurement
Expert curation of premium audio-video components matched to your room, budget, and goals. We carry industry-leading brands in projectors, screens, receivers, and speakers — and we recommend only what you actually need.
Room Design & Planning
Custom layout planning to optimize screen size, seating distance, speaker placement, and sightlines. We assess your space before recommending any equipment, so every component works in harmony with the room.
Professional Installation & Setup
Ceiling-mounted projectors, wall-mounted screens, in-wall speaker installation, clean cable routing — everything done right the first time. Every system is fully configured and optimized for the specific room it's installed in.
Surround Sound Setup
From 5.1 to full Dolby Atmos configurations, we handle speaker placement, in-wall/in-ceiling cable runs, and receiver calibration with room correction software for the most accurate soundstage your room can deliver.
Acoustic Treatment & Lighting Design
Strategic acoustic panels, bass traps, and diffusers to control reflections and improve clarity. Combined with dimmable, bias-lit ambient lighting, these finishing touches elevate your theater from good to exceptional.
System Integration & TV Mounting
Whether your setup includes a projector, flat-panel TV, or both, we handle full system integration: HDMI routing, network configuration, streaming device setup, universal remote programming, and concealed cable management.

Demo Theater Room
JVC DLA-NZ7 4K projector on a 150" Stewart screen with 7.2.4 Dolby Atmos audio, KEF speakers, dual subwoofers, tactile transducers, and full smart automation.
Living Room Home Theater
A TV-above-fireplace living room transformed into an eye-level cinematic experience with an all-MartinLogan 5.1.4 speaker configuration.
Projector Upgrade: Epson 5050 to JVC NZ7
A client with a beautifully custom-built dedicated theater — complete with a 165" wide (179" diagonal) 2.4:1 scope screen — had been running an Epson 5050 and was curious about upgrading to JVC's flagship D-ILA technology. His main concern: would the NZ7 deliver enough brightness at that screen size? We brought TekScene's personal demo unit, set it up alongside the existing Epson, and let the room do the talking — the JVC measured nearly 4× brighter on his screen. He purchased the demo unit on the spot, and the NZ7 now lives permanently in "Twinseltown."
Dedicated Theater Upgrade
A dedicated home theater received a full front-end overhaul — new projector, acoustically transparent screen, and A/V receiver with advanced room correction, topped off with a MadVR Envy Core MK2 video processor for reference-grade tone mapping and HDR precision. The upgrade transforms an already capable room into a true high-performance cinema.
Dedicated Theater Atmos Upgrade
A home theater enthusiast undertook a full room refresh on his own — new processor, power amplifiers, speakers, and acoustic treatment — and brought us in to nail the one detail that demands precision: Dolby Atmos in-ceiling speaker placement. Using a laser level, we located and installed each overhead speaker to exact symmetry, running new cable throughout and extending existing runs where the walls couldn't be re-fished.
TV Above Fireplace Install
A client relocating to a new home needed their large 75" TV properly installed above the fireplace. The job included removing the previous 40" TV and mount, relocating the electrical outlet to the ideal position, sourcing and installing a new heavy-duty wall mount, and completing the install with a full Apple TV setup and configuration.
