ìFor a $99.95 per day equipment rental fee, party hosts now can easily and instantly convert their living or family rooms into a full-fledged movie theater, complete with a nine-foot giant screen, surround sound audio, ultra-bright projector, built-in karaoke machine and more. AHT plans to take its ìGiant Screen Partyî rental system to more than 10,000 retail centers nationwide this yearî said Gary Logue, President of the Irvine, Calif.-based company. Each center features signage and a creative ìParty Plannerî in-store display and take-home party magazines with more than 100 party themes for all age groups. ìParty hosts can easily create new ways to weave games and activities together with the giant screen entertainment,î he said.AHTís party system consists of an ultra-bright, 3,200-lumen video projector, the large theater-like screen and a multi-functional audio-visual Tru-Theater Sound System (TTSS), a compact and mobile unit containing a DVD player, VCR, TV tuner, karaoke machine, powerful amplifier, subwoofer, and stereo speakers with SRS surround sound. ìLittle children, gathered at a birthday party, really become wide-eyed watching the latest animated DVD while older kids can become totally absorbed in the over-sized action of hot new video games,î Logue said. ìTeenagers can scream at a fright-night film. Adults can ëattendí the Academy Awards, enjoy ëfront row seatsí at the Super Bowl or sing in a group to karaoke lyrics shown on the giant screen.îìWe drastically reduce the cost and complexity usually associated with rental and setup of A-V equipment. Professional audio-visual dealers often charge $500 to $1,000 per day to rent a full home theater system,î he said, adding that AHT eliminates the need for an experienced technician to configure and set up the equipment. However, he said AHT retail centers will deliver, set-up, and pickup the system for a $25 fee. AHT equipment is provided by its partner, Eastech, one of the worldís largest original equipment manufacturers for consumer electronics industry leaders, including Sony, Panasonic, Pioneer, Dell, and others. ìOur rental locations will direct millions of home-theater shoppers to visit our website to make purchases, saving them 15-20 percent on prices charged by retailers for projectors, screens, sound systems and other components,î he said. ìConsumers will be able to rent equipment in advance to determine its suitability for the intended application or environment.îFor more information, please visit www.AHTrental.com.
