Verified Customer Reviews
“Master Antenna transformed our living room into a cinema. Installed 4 in-ceiling Atmos speakers, wired everything behind the walls to our Marantz receiver, and ran the full room acoustic calibration. The difference before and after calibration is night and day. Completely invisible wiring.”
“Mounted our Sonos Arc under our wall-mounted TV and set up the sub and surrounds. The technician fixed the eARC audio delay we'd been suffering with for months and configured our Apple TV remote so we only need one click to watch a movie. Prompt, courteous, and zero mess.”
“Built a dedicated theatre room and called Master Antenna for the fit-off. They handled the 9-channel surround layout, projector mount, and subwoofer positioning to eliminate room bass boom. Fantastic attention to detail and honest advice.”
A true cinema experience in your home requires far more than plugging in speakers and turning up the volume. Professional home theatre installation begins with acoustic layout geometry: calculating ear-level angles for front left, centre, and right channels, positioning surround speakers to envelop the seating area, installing overhead Dolby Atmos height speakers, and setting up an ultra-high-speed HDMI 2.1 eARC audio link between your television and AV receiver. We balance every channel using multi-point acoustic microphone calibration (Audyssey MultEQ, Yamaha YPAO, or Dirac Live) to match your room's specific sonic properties.
Why do DIY setups often sound disappointing despite expensive audio hardware? Uncalibrated crossover frequencies send low bass to small satellite speakers causing distortion, uncorrected room standing waves cause boomy or muddy bass notes, and incorrect television audio pass-through settings create frustrating lip-sync audio lag. Furthermore, exposed speaker wire trailing across timber floors or baseboards ruins the room's aesthetics. Master Antenna routes high-purity oxygen-free speaker cabling invisibly through wall and ceiling cavities.
From sleek soundbar wall-mounting with wireless subwoofers to complete 7.1.4 Dolby Atmos private screening rooms, Master Antenna manages the entire process end-to-end. We configure your Apple TV, gaming consoles, and Foxtel boxes, integrate HDMI-CEC single-remote control, and walk you through system operation so watching a movie is effortless.
From speaker placement and in-wall cabling to AV receiver tuning and multi-point room calibration — all in one visit.

These are the issues we diagnose and resolve most often — usually in a single visit.
Often caused by incorrect AV receiver channel assignment, unassigned amplifier channels, or TVs outputting 2-channel stereo PCM instead of multi-channel Dolby bitstream.
When movie audio lags behind spoken dialogue, it's caused by eARC handshake timing differences and processing latency. We calibrate millisecond delays to match picture perfectly.
Placing subwoofers in corners creates severe room boundary resonances and standing waves. We reposition the subwoofer, set crossover filters, and calibrate phase alignment.
Needing four remotes to adjust volume, switch HDMI inputs, and control streaming is frustrating. We configure HDMI-CEC so your TV remote turns on and controls everything seamlessly.

Everything you need to know about professional home theatre setup across Melbourne and Gippsland.
A soundbar is a compact, all-in-one speaker placed directly under your TV, ideal for clean setups in smaller living spaces. A 5.1 or Dolby Atmos system uses dedicated individual front, centre, surround, height (in-ceiling), and subwoofer speakers connected to an AV receiver. This creates a true three-dimensional acoustic soundstage where sound effects move realistically above and around you.
Yes. In-wall and in-ceiling cable concealment is our speciality. We feed high-grade oxygen-free speaker wire through wall and ceiling cavities to discreet wall terminal plates, leaving zero visible wires trailing across your living room floor.
Dolby Atmos is an object-based audio technology that adds height channels to traditional surround sound. While upward-firing bouncy speakers exist, true cinema-grade Dolby Atmos requires physical in-ceiling or high-mounted architectural speakers angled towards your main seating area. We measure and cut precise ceiling positions according to Dolby acoustic guidelines.
You can supply your own equipment, or we can recommend and supply quality components from trusted audio brands (Yamaha, Denon, Marantz, Polk, Klipsch, Sonos). We charge fair, transparent installation rates regardless of where you bought your equipment.
Every room has unique acoustic reflections, resonant frequencies, and absorption from furniture. Professional room calibration uses a specialised measurement microphone placed at ear level across multiple listening positions. The AV processor calculates exact speaker distances, volume trims, crossover points, and frequency equalisation curves to eliminate boomy bass and deliver crystal-clear movie dialogue.
Yes. We integrate Apple TV, Foxtel iQ, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, Nintendo Switch, 4K Blu-ray players, and vinyl turntables into your receiver or soundbar. We configure HDMI-eARC audio return and HDMI-CEC so you can control power and volume with a single remote.
A soundbar, wireless subwoofer, and surround pair setup typically takes 1 to 2 hours. A full 5.1 or Dolby Atmos 7.1.4 system with in-ceiling speaker installations, in-wall cable routing, and multi-point acoustic calibration takes between 3 to 5 hours depending on ceiling cavity access.
