My friend had wanted to install a new projection TV screen in his apartment for the longest time and he thinks the time has arrived. I think I am as excited for him about getting a new projection TV screen as he is about getting it. I know that my buddy installing a new projection TV screen in his home theater room is just like me getting one, because we hang out together... Read More
When most people think about home theater systems and their relative home theater components, they don’t really tend to think about volume control devices. Heck, when I was buying the awesome theater components that I have in the wonderful setup in my living room, I never thought about such a gadget, not even one time. However, there were some things that I noticed shortly... Read More
I was fortunate enough to be in Las Vegas for the start of the NBA playoffs. Late Saturday afternoon a group of friends headed down to our hotels sports lounge to watch the Celtics/Heat game on their main projection television. The many seats were packed with people who’d placed bets on the spread and those like me who just wanted to see some great basketball. It turned... Read More
Well, the NBA playoff schedule is now official and I could not be happier for how things turned out for the Phoenix Suns. This is a team who has gotten another chance at the championship thanks to the talents of head coach Alvin Gentry. While I was watching their final game against the Utah Jazz one of the comments made was how Gentry was able to make Phoenix defensively... Read More
My home theater receiver has an option called “Test Tone.” After pressing, static starts on the front left speaker signified on the receiver and then moves across to the others as a way to make sure a person has plugged all the wires into the right slots in the back. This is the first step in creating the right sound. The next is messing with the equalizer. This takes the... Read More with Video
Last night, I was pleasantly surprised to see the third installment of Jurassic Park in HD on TV. It was the perfect way to wind down a long day of riding through ocean side canyons on a motorcycle. A person really doesn’t know how sore their backside and inner thighs can get until leaning back and forth for mile after mile on sharp canyon twisties. All that mind exercise... Read More
I was looking for a home theater system to go with my new projection television, and the choices that I had were amazing. I just started shopping online and I am very happy with the whole experience that I had. I was going to get a cookie cutter theater system, but I had talked to my brother and he said that he mixed and matched different home theater components to make an... Read More
Like many people living in the west I have a lot of recent technological innovations in my home. If you were to visit me you would find things like notebook computers and notebook accessories. You’d see a PC computer with computers accessories, too. You’d find a home theater system comprising of surround sound speakers, an HD DVD player and other home theater components.... Read More
It has been a hectic start of the week as I’ve been moving from one apartment to another. After the backbreaking labor of going back and forth, up and down elevators, all of my gear is now moved but there is still much to setup. Priority number one is the home theater system. I’m sort of like a kid in the candy store moving the seven speakers around to different elevations... Read More
Home theater systems have changed a lot over the past twenty-odd years but at the same time, they have remained fundamentally the same. A guy I worked with had a 1988 Kloss Nova Beam projection television with a surround sound system hooked up to it. The projection TV screen that came with the projection TV was slightly curved and really produced an excellent picture if... Read More with Video
