  "account": "Home theatre technology is now seamlessly integrated into everyday spaces, replacing bulky entertainment units and tangled cords with hidden speakers and immersive surround sound. Laurence Rosenberg, president of The Accurate Technology Group (ATG), notes that traditional dedicated home theatre rooms are becoming less common, with homeowners opting to incorporate high-quality entertainment experiences into great rooms, family rooms, and living areas. Advanced architectural speakers, immersive surround sound, system calibration, and other technologies enable discreetly incorporated systems within walls, ceilings, and cabinetry. This approach allows homeowners to enjoy a top-notch entertainment experience without sacrificing aesthetics.\n\nBoth new and existing homes are embracing this trend, with pre-wiring for additional speakers, automation systems, and dedicated theatre or media rooms recommended for future-proofing. Homeowners can choose between traditional televisions in the 65-inch to 83-inch range or micro LED video walls, which can be custom-sized to fit any room and offer excellent picture quality without being light-dependent. As more people choose to stay home and invest in their living spaces, the demand for advanced home technology is expected to continue growing.",
