Professional Home Entertainment - Automation Design and Installation
Home Theatre

Home Theatres have become the new must have. It is no wonder they are popular when you can achieve movie theatre reproduction in your own home. The cost of Video Projectors, flat screen Plasma and LCD TV's have fallen and are likely to come down even further. To be honest you do not need to purchase a new television to start your home theatre. You can do Home Theatre with a 14" TV if you wished.


However! - there is a lot more to consider than just which brand to buy! It is not unusual to have the cost of the installation cost more than the new screen you have just purchased.


Television Choices

Probably the most important thing to be aware of is that television standards are changing. In the very near future the signals we receive will be changing to a digital transmission method. How this will be implemented is yet to be determined in New Zealand. This should not be confused with the now available range of "Wide Screen" monitors. When buying any new TV consideration should be given to moving to the new wide screen format. (16:9 - 16 units wide by 9 units high)


Projectors

Projectors offer the largest image per dollar spent. For those looking for a true "Movie Theatre Size" experience then this is one possible choice.

Microsoft Home Media Centre

This is pretty much breaking technology for New Zealand and should be available very soon. It has been available in the USA for nearly two years and has just been released into Great Britain. The reason it is not here already is that it only currently supports the US TV standards. With it becoming available in Great Britain then it should not be to far off from our shores.
