Why a Flat Panel TV better than a Projector

August 21st, 2009 By: Lauren

Choices, choices, choices… in our consumer-based economy, we are sometimes inundated with such a large variety of choices that we become overwhelmed and unable to make a confident decision. And this perplexing array of choice is probably most pronounced when it comes to consumer electronics, especially those for your home theater. When it comes to your home theater, the TV will likely be the central aspect of your technology and your design. But which TV to choose?

There are many factors that you can use to decide which TV is right for you. Size (ranging from 19-inches up to 60-inches and more), resolution (1080p, 480i and all the resolutions in-between), video and audio technologies and more. But before you dive into the nitty-gritties of TV choices, you must first make the basic decision: do you want a flat panel TV or a front projector?

A Clean Home Theater will make your Flat Screen TV Frame Stand Out

August 18th, 2009 By: Lauren

It isn’t enough to just have the latest and greatest home theater equipment. You must take good care of it in order to pull out the best performance, and have an overall functionally and aesthetically appealing room. In addition to maintenance and AV tweaking, you’ll need to keep your gear clean if you want the top-performance possible.

You’ve got to understand proper AV equipment care in order to preserve the life of your devices.

How to Choose the Blu-Ray Player that’s Right for your Home Theater

August 11th, 2009 By: Lauren

After a few hours of shopping and installation, you now have your beautiful new flat screen TV, fully decked out with a modern TV picture frame from HD Envy, mounted to the wall of your home theater. It is stunning, pristine, awe-inspiring. But it can’t do too much just yet. Sure, you can get your standard digital cable signals, but you want something really special to bring out all of that top-performing hardware in the back of your set that you spent so long researching. And for this, you’ll need a Blu-Ray player.

When on the hunt for a Blu-Ray player, you should keep a few concerns at the forefront of your mind. Because not all Blu-Ray players are built equal (nor are their prices, which can range from $99 to $999 and more), you want the one that matches your TV and sound system best. In particular, you want to look for the video resolution, audio decoding, the Profile of the Blu-Ray player and the “extras” like online services.
