We used The Big Picture for our basement cinema room, bedroom projector system and Control4 Home automation throughout. After researching various other companies, we decided to use Ciaran, as his expertise and attention to detail is second to none. He went out of his way to find a system that suited our needs and worked with us along the way to ensure we were happy. He was on site every day and worked very long hours, to see the installation completed in a timely fashion. He designed and built the whole cinema from the bare shell to finished product, even helping us with the interior design. The room has full acoustic treatment and stretched fabrics to all walls and ceilings, which we love. The whole family agree that the cinemas now the best room in the house! The sound and audio quality and his knowledge on the subject is immense and we are over the moon with the finished products. Thank you, Ciaran!

Award Worthy Cinema! I contact Ciaran from The Big Picture just after the start of the pandemic when it was a difficult time to do anything for any of us. I had very little idea of what I wanted and even less idea about the space I was creating to house a cinema. I sent him some photos of what I thought would be an identical space and he worked a quote out based on that and based on me wanting something quite special. The quote gave me a number of options from both the lower and higher ends of the home cinema possibilities. We had a lot of hurdles to work through during the process with building materials and complications and Ciaran worked diligently on the phone with my builders to ensure what he envisioned could work with what they were building, and vice versa. Then there were silly issues on equipment that were prevalent in all of these industries at the time and again Ciaran keep me updated at all times and even copied me into emails to and from suppliers to ensure all was very transparent in what was a difficult world at the time. The first time I listened to some music on the wisdom audio speakers in the room, combined with Ciarans audio treatment I was almost in tears. The sheer purity of the sound at all levels evoked an unexpected emotional response that Id never experienced before. The room wasnt even finished! Several months later from enquiry to completion it was finally time to sit and watch our first movies. My Dad was dying and we had him around to watch the greatest showman. He was in awe and Ill never forgot watching that film in there with him, the image on the screen, the sound all around us and the total immersion he and all of us felt while we watched it. Controls wise the room is simple to operate for image, sound and lighting, the seating recommended by Ciaran is very comfortable and the room. Well, it just works as one unit. Every time I go in there continue to be blown away by the sound, the image and the amazing quality of the whole set up. I never expected to feel an emotional reaction but the moment you walk into the room you feel that its different, then the film comes on or the music plays and you are transported into another realm of reality where its just you and the music/film and nothing else. It is quite simply, incredible. Thank you Ciaran for working with me and creating this space in our home. It is well worth the finals of the Cedia awards that it has reached and in my books its definitely the winner! Well done!
