Home theatre

Home theatre is one of the absolutely indispensable things in our homes. You could get a huge screen and monstrous speakers only at the cinema in the past. Now, with a home theatre you can have cinematic effect in your living room.
For making the right choice and to become the owner of the high-quality and not so expensive thing, you must pay attention at three key components of a home theatre: the display, the DVD player, and the speakers. DVD players and newer televisions can produce detailed high- quality pictures. And with a high- quality surround-sound speaker system your living room will become a movie-watching paradise.

You will need a quality DVD player or one of the new high- definition HD DVD or Blu-ray Disc players to receive the precise picture.
Sony, Pioneer, Panasonic and Toshiba make players for the new high- definition videodisc formats that are capable of more than three times the resolution of standard DVD models.
When prices for quality DVD players range from $50 to $150; players for the new high- definition videodisc format, Blu-ray and HD DVD sell for $300 or more.

To take the full advantage of players for the new high- definition videodisc formats you will need wide- screen TV, which one can divide into three categories: flat- panel TVs, rear- projection TVs and front projectors.
Flat –panel TVs are thick and can be wall- or stand- mounted. They are absolutely suitable for home theatre use. They sell for $700 to $10, 000.
All rear- projection TVs available today are wide- screen HDTV designs. Thanks to the new technologies, they are generally between 16 to 18 inches deep and weigh about 100 pounds. They are designed to stand or to be place on a shelf. The prices on them are from $1000 to $5000.
But the most popular for home theatre are compact front projectors. They can produce large and extremely clear picture. The prices on them start at $1000.

The sound is one of the main parts of the impression from home theater. Of course you have the speakers built into your TV, but it is not enough to achieve theater- quality audio. You will need a surround sound system consists of center, left and right speakers, two satellite speakers and a subwoofer for rumbling bass. The best producers are JBL, Bose and Paradigm.
