1 October 2024 by

Designing the ideal home theatre is about more than just the size of your screen or the performance of your speakers. Your seating plays a crucial role in creating an immersive, luxurious experience. At BMC Audio Visual, Melbourne’s premier home theatre seating specialist, we offer the best luxury home cinema recliners designed to elevate your viewing experience with unmatched comfort and cutting-edge features. Here’s a guide to help you choose the perfect home theatre recliner, tailored to your specific needs.


1. Prioritising Ultimate Comfort


When selecting a home theatre recliner, comfort is paramount. Our recliners at BMC Audio Visual come equipped with premium padding that include High-density foam, advanced ergonomics, and lumbar support to ensure that you can enjoy hours of movies, sports, or shows in ultimate relaxation.


  • Adjustable Headrests: Many of our power recliners feature motorised headrests, allowing you to fine-tune the position for perfect neck and head support, whether you’re sitting upright or fully reclined.
  • Lumbar Adjustment: Many of our models come with motorised lumbar support, allowing you to adjust the lower backrest for enhanced spinal alignment and targeted comfort, perfect for extended use.
  • Recline Function: All of our recliners are equipped with motorised reclining mechanisms, allowing you to smoothly adjust the chair from an upright position to fully reclined with the push of a button, offering you infinite reclining positions for maximum relaxation.
  • Premium Foam Cushioning: Some models feature high density foam, contouring to your body to offer superior support, ensuring comfort even during extended viewing sessions.
  • Seat Firmness Options: Our recliners come with various seat firmness levels, from softer cushioning for those who prefer a plush feel, to firmer options for those who need more structured support. This ensures long-lasting comfort suited to your personal preferences.
  • Seat Memory Position: Some of our premium models include a seat memory function, allowing you to save your favourite seating position. With the push of a button, your recliner will automatically return to your preferred settings, adding an extra layer of convenience.

2. Power Reclining for Custom Comfort


All recliners in our collection are power recliners, offering seamless and easy adjustments with the touch of a button. You can smoothly transition from sitting to fully reclined without any effort, ensuring you find the perfect viewing angle every time. Power reclining also allows for infinite positioning, meaning you can adjust both the backrest and footrest independently for maximum comfort.


3. Premium Materials: Leather and Fabric Options


At BMC Audio Visual, we offer recliners in a range of premium materials to suit your style and preferences:


  • Top-Grain Leather: Ideal for those seeking a luxurious, modern look, our top-grain leather recliners offer durability, easy maintenance, and a sophisticated aesthetic. Leather is an excellent choice for high-end home theatres due to its longevity and sleek appearance.
  • High-Quality Fabrics: For those who prefer a softer, more tactile feel, we offer fabric recliners in a range of colours and textures. Fabrics add a warm, cosy feel to your home theatre and offer more variety in terms of style.

4. Innovative Features for an Elevated Experience


Our recliners are more than just comfortable seating; they come packed with features that enhance your entire home theatre experience:


  • Built-in Cupholders and Tray Tables: Many models include integrated cupholders and removable tray tables, allowing you to enjoy snacks and drinks without missing a moment of your movie.
  • USB Charging Ports: Keep your devices charged with USB ports built into the armrests, ensuring you never run out of battery during your entertainment.
  • LED Lighting: For a modern touch and added convenience, some recliners feature LED lighting under the base or in the cupholders, helping you navigate the room without disrupting the viewing experience.
  • Heat and Massage Functions: Take relaxation to the next level with recliners that offer built-in heating and massage functions, transforming your home theatre into a personal retreat.

5. Space and Layout Considerations


Before purchasing, it’s important to measure your space. BMC Audio Visual offers various configurations, including single recliners, loveseats, and multi-row seating, to suit your specific room size. If you’re working with limited space, consider wall-hugger recliners, which require minimal clearance behind them to fully recline.


For larger home theatres, we offer custom solutions with multi-seat layouts, perfect for creating a cinematic experience for family and friends.


6. The BMC Audio Visual Experience vs. Generic Furniture Stores


Choosing home theatre seating isn’t just about comfort and features—it’s about creating a personalised experience that enhances your home theatre environment. At BMC Audio Visual, we offer a specialised service that furniture stores simply can’t match. Here’s why:
