One of the overwhelming aspects of finding and/or designing he right home theatre system is that there are now so many options to choose from. With the ever steady boom in home theatre demand, more manufacturers are producing a wide array of options. Technology continues to change and improve in leaps and bounds, which often means what was brand new and completely unaffordable only twelve months ago may now be right in your perfect price range.

One reason many individuals like having a hand in designing their own home theatre system is that you can basically mix and match to make it into whatever you want. You are not restrained by package deals. It is possible to put together a full-scale, state of the art system with projector, receiver and the works, or if that seems a little over the top, you can buy a quality TV (some almost to projection screen sizes nowadays) and accessorize it with DVD player and surround sound speakers.

The variance can go from a couple thousand, to $100,000 for the ludicrously rich and extravagant. This illustrates the importance of choosing a system that suits your needs and doesn’t break the bank.

In the end, it’s all about getting the best possible home theater system for the money you have available. Don’t be afraid if it’s not state of the art-your neighbor will still be paying that off six years down the road when you’ve already upgraded for cheaper. Because of the rapid move of technology, prices bottom out pretty quickly as companies rush at sometimes break neck speeds to try and out do each other.

Think about your own watching and listening needs. Based on what you prefer, a little research should reveal to you the best brands, the best speakers, the best options for what you want to enjoy.

Building your home theater can be a great experience. If you are a family man, you can enjoy movies with the family without having to go out to the hassles of a theatre. If you’re a bachelor, invite the guys over for the game. If you’re a college student, you are probably incredibly popular (just don’t put it on the credit cards). There are several different factors to consider when picking out the various parts that will go into your own personal home theatre system. Here is a check list of a few things to consider:

* Projector or TV? Are you in a semi-permanent residence, or moving soon? That may make a huge difference in how much you want to sink in.

* If you’re shooting for the projector, then what type suits your needs?

* Small room or larger one.

* What is the focus? Movies? Music? Football games? All of the above?

* Location, location, location!

* Can I do it myself, or should I get help?

Keep this checklist in mind and do your research, and you’ll be sure to find the home theatre system that matches your needs.

I’m looking to buy an amplifier to replace my existing piece of crap with something a little more sophiticated.
Does anyone know where I can buy a decent one without shelling out the extra bucks for the brand name? I want it to have a Dolby Digital Decoder and NOT have only lame presets available to me so an equalizer is important.

Does anyone have any ideas?
I have a Samsung HD DLP television which receives HD from my satellite service.
I don’t want to change my existing surround speakers (each 4 rated at 100 watts) but I need a subwoofer. I don’t have a center speaker.

The same PS3, the same settings. Just take out the DVD and put in a game and the two back speakers have no sound coming out. In fact, some movies don’t come through the two back speakers.

Assuming I already have the room, how much would a home theatre cost. I would want quality stuff, but doesn’t have to be top of the line equipment. I was thinking a ten foot pull down projection screen, projector, 4 or 5 theatre style seats, couch, carpet, nice sound system. You know, stuff like that. How much would all of this end up costing me?
