Bespoke custom home cinema design and installation across every Cheshire village — Chester, Tarporley, Tattenhall, Delamere, Mobberley, Knutsford, Wilmslow, Nantwich, Sandbach, Northwich and beyond. Dedicated cinema rooms, lifestyle media rooms, Dolby Atmos, 4K projection, acoustic treatment and luxury seating. 500+ projects since 2003.

Cheshire's home cinema specialists

Sonor Smart Homes has been designing and installing premium home cinema systems across Cheshire for over two decades. From our Chester headquarters we cover the whole county — the Georgian terraces of the city, the substantial rural properties around Tarporley and Tattenhall, the stockbroker belt of Wilmslow, Alderley Edge and Prestbury, and everywhere between.

Every Cheshire home cinema we deliver is bespoke. We don't sell packages. Each project begins with understanding your space, your lifestyle and your ambitions — then designing the room, the acoustics, the seating and the technology around those answers. The result is a cinema that fits your home and the way you use it, not a generic install.

Two ways to build your Cheshire home cinema

Dedicated Cinema Rooms

Spare bedroom, basement, attic, outbuilding — we transform it into a fully immersive private cinema with acoustic treatment, tiered seating, star ceiling, programmable mood lighting and reference-grade sound. The gold standard of home cinema.

Lifestyle Media Rooms

Don't want to lose a room? We design discreet, retractable cinema systems for your living room, games room or snug — beautiful by day, immersive cinema at night. A favourite for Cheshire period properties where aesthetics matter.

What's included in a Sonor cinema installation

4K UHD & HDR

4K laser projection with Dolby Vision HDR, or reference OLED displays — calibrated to give you picture exactly as the director intended.

Dolby Atmos Sound

From clean 5.1 surround through to fully immersive 9.2.4 Atmos with ceiling speakers — room-calibrated for jaw-dropping results.

Acoustic Treatment

Bass traps, absorbers, diffusers, fabric-wrapped walls — treated properly so the sound matches the picture. No afterthoughts.

Luxury Seating

Power-reclining cinema chairs, riser platforms, bespoke sofas — sourced from leading global manufacturers to suit your style and budget.

Mood Lighting

Coffered LED ceilings, star cloth, Lutron or Control4 scene lighting — the atmosphere is as much a part of the cinema as the screen.

Simple Control

One remote, one app, one button. Lights dim, curtains close, system powers up, film starts. No fumbling with five remotes — this is Control4-level automation.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a home cinema cost in Cheshire?

Every Cheshire cinema project is priced individually after a site survey — costs vary considerably with room size, seating specification, acoustic treatment and equipment choice. We'll provide a detailed quotation following an initial consultation at your property.

How long does installation take?

A typical Cheshire dedicated cinema project runs eight to sixteen weeks from design to handover. Lifestyle installations in existing rooms are usually one to three weeks on site.

Do you install in period and listed properties?

Yes — a significant portion of our Cheshire work is in period homes. Victorian villas in Chester, Georgian townhouses, converted barns across the county. We specialise in discreet, invisible installations that preserve original character.

Can you retrofit, or only new builds?

Both. Around two-thirds of our Cheshire cinema projects are retrofits into existing homes. We're experienced in working around finished rooms, running cabling without damage, and delivering clean results.
