Home Theater In A Box, or HTIB, is a complete surround sound system
conveniently packaged all in one box. It connects to virtually any television.
A home theater system in a box usually includes a home theater receiver
and surround sound speakers - 5 or 6 small "satellite speakers" and
a powered subwoofer for deep, explosive bass sound effects. From the comfort
and safety of your home, a home theater system connected to a big screen
TV transforms ordinary home entertainment into a sight
and sound experience that rivals your local movie theater. Many home theater
systems also include a DVD player which plays both your DVDs and CDs!
You
should also connect your digital satellite or cable box, VCR and video
game system. The sound on today's video game systems is incredible!
Don't worry, hookup is not as difficult as it looks. There is a lot of
support available for you! Home theater systems generally
range in price from below $300 to about $1000.
LCD (liquid crystal display) technology represents
a revolution in television design: the truly flat TV. LCD flat-panel
displays typically measure around 3" in depth, and are lightweight
enough to be mounted on a wall (although they also look mighty sleek
on the artsy stands designed to display them on tabletops). LCD technology
produces an exceptionally bright picture that can easily be viewed even
in very bright conditions. The images are characterized by outstanding
sharpness and detail and rich, saturated colors. LCD TVs use relatively
little electricity, run cooler and more quietly than most plasma displays,
and are essentially immune to the "burn-in" problems that plague
CRT-projection and plasma TVs. Slim, sleek and lightweight, they can
be placed or mounted almost anywhere in the home, including places where
you might not have considered placing a TV — and, in fact, can
easily be transported from room to room (with the exception of the largest
screen sizes) for additional flexibility. And no matter where you put
them, the latest models allow uninhibited viewing from angles as severe
as 170 degrees off-axis.
LCD TVs are available many sizes,
from 10" standard-definition models to widescreen HDTV showpieces
of 37" or more.
The
result of recent plasma technology has yielded a television display produces
an evenly focused, realistic picture with a wide viewing angle. Plasma
displays
perform well regardless of lighting conditions and are not affected
by magnetic fields. That means you can set one next to your home speaker
system without affecting the picture. Most models accept both video and
computer inputs, allowing you to watch your favorite movies or display
images from the DVD-ROM drive of your computer. Plasmas weigh much less
than LCD televisions, and are currently the only flat panel televisions
offered in screen sizes larger than twenty inches. These high tech displays
don't
come cheap and, as with LCD televisions, a rather limited market stops
the manufacturers from producing them in large numbers. Of course, the
most obvious advantage to owning a flat panel television is an ultra-thin
display that weighs considerably less than a traditional TV. In addition
to looking like something out of the space age, flat panels might also
be categorized as being part of the "space saving" age - they
fit almost anywhere!
