If you don’t have a healthy balance on your credit/debt card to buy a home theater and still don’t want to compromise on quality, you may pull together a reasonably excellent home theater with surround-sound system for just $2000.
THE $2,000 HOME THEATER SETUP:
The WESTINGHOUSE LVM-37W3 LCD display featuring full 1080p resolution comes for just $1399. Featuring midsize (37-inches) screen, just right for a home theatre, Westinghouse doesn’t include the TV tuner that considerably cut down the cost of the 1080p display. You will have to change channels through cable or satellite set-top box.
Supplementary surround-sound system will not only give a boom for your home theater but will save certain bucks as well. The 900-watt YAMAHA DVX-C770 for $550 is a just right combination for the WESTINGHOUSE LVM-37W3 LCD display. The DVX-C770 can play compressed DivX discs and video CDs and comes packed with a DVD player that can enhance the standard discs to hi-def through an HDMI output.
You may complete the whole setup with a simple UNIVERSAL REMOTE CONTROL URC-R7 ($40) that includes thousands of preprogrammed codes along with an easy DVD setup guide.
THE $6,000 HOME THEATER SETUP:
If money is no constraint for you and you really want to liven up your living room, the 56-inches SAMSUNG HL-S5687W DLP TV presenting 1080p resolution and a 10,000:1 contrast ratio might be a good option. Of course you will have to pay bit more ($2799) bucks for the massive screen.
Apart from the big screen, you need a digital technology to systematize your media paraphernalia around a computer. ALIENWARE’S DHS A SERIES with a 1000-watt amp, about 1.5 terabytes of customized storage as well as Athlon 64 X2 dual-core chip tuned for multimedia is one of the best blends of PC and receiver that is available in the market. Above all, you may integrate the HDMI output with all your hi-def gear without any trouble. You may get it for $999.
For real theatre surround sound you need a quality good home theater sound system. The KLIPSCH RF-10 5.1-channel system for $1349 is one of the high-end audio equipment that may liven up your home theatre.
The most sophisticated gaming machine, SONY PLAYSTATION 3 with 1080p Blu-ray device can certainly add the oomph and dynamism to your home theatre.
Your home theatre cannot be a complete system without an advance remote control. The LOGITECH HARMONY 1000, available for $500, comes with a color touchscreen that can command several devices simultaneously with different program buttons.
