Free home theater planning tool · Beta
Build a home theater that actually fits your room.
Answer a few questions about your room, budget, and goals. MyTheaterBuild recommends a complete system—including speakers, subwoofers, receiver, amplification, projector, and screen—then checks compatibility and explains why each component was selected.
Layout-aware
5.1 through 7.1.4. Pick the layout you're planning and we build the checklist around it.
Honest math
Sensitivity, impedance, power, and distance — combined into an estimated peak SPL at your seat.
Confidence labels
Every number carries its source. Manufacturer specs are marked; independent measurements outrank them.
Power and compatibility checks
See whether the selected receiver can support your speaker layout, whether external amplification may help, and how loud the system is estimated to play at your seating position.
