Shop all home audio speakers here.

Although there are other factors in play, speakers are usually the deciding factor in the overall sound quality of your system, so it’s well worth the time to listen to several models/brands before making a decision. In fact, personal preference is probably the biggest factor in speaker selection, followed by speaker type (e.g., bookshelf, floor standing, etc.) and the components you will use to power your speakers.

SPEAKER LOCATION
Speaker placement configuration is heavily dependent on the size of the room. If you’re renting a small bedroom then a 7.1 home theater system is probably going to be overkill. Take into serious consideration the placement of your speakers because these decisions will have a direct affect on the type of speaker you need and the sound quality you will enjoy.

SPEAKER TYPE
This type of speaker refers more to the cabinetry housing the speaker than the literal type of the speaker itself. For example, a random floor standing speaker might handle 100 watts maximum, while another floor standing speaker of the same cabinet dimensions might handle 500 watts. In a nutshell, the size and design of the speaker’s cabinetry doesn’t necessarily equate to high quality sound.

Bookshelf
Just as the name implies, these speakers are designed to be placed onto closed or open bookshelves.

Klipsch Bookshelf Surround Speaker with Tractrix® Horns
(Model No: KS2)

Center Channel
This speaker is part of a home theater system and its purpose is to keep sound anchored to the on-screen action. When you watch a DVD or Blu-ray movie, the center channel delivers more than 50 percent of the soundtrack, including virtually all of the dialogue, and many of the sound effects.

Polk Audio Dual 5-1/4″ 2-Way Center Channel Speaker
(Model No: CSRBLK)

Floor Standing
While they do take up floor space, floor standing speakers generally have the best overall sound because the speakers and enclosures are performance matched.

Sony 6-1/2″ 4-Way 180-Watt Floor Standing Speaker
(Model No: 194648)

In-wall & Outdoor
In-wall speakers have good sound and the grills can be painted to match the walls. Outdoor speakers are often sold individually and can be cosmetically designed to look like a rock to blend in with their surroundings. These speakers can even be used in humid, hot/cold, and in instances where precipitation is present.

Bose® Virtually Invisible® In-Wall / In-Ceiling Speakers
(Model No: 191WH)

Multi-speaker Systems
These systems are specifically “bundled” together by the manufacturer for compatibility and functionality. They can consist of a 2.1, 5.1, or 7.1 system and do not include a receiver. This takes all the guesswork out of selecting a center speaker, front speakers, satellite speakers, and a powered bass speaker and hoping they work well together.

Polk Audio 5.1 Home Theater Speaker System
(Model No: RM6750)

Subwoofers
The subwoofer plays a crucial role in the surround sound effects you hear by reproducing low-frequency sounds in the 25–180Hz range.

Polk Audio 100-Watt 10″ Monitor Series Powered Subwoofer
(Model No: PSW10)

Wireless
These speakers deliver the same crisp audio and amazing clarity as their wired counterparts, but without unsightly wires. They’re compatible with most electronic devices, allowing you to seamlessly transfer audio content from your stereo, computer and more with the built-in stereo audio cable.

With the expansion of home entertainment going way beyond just your television and a DVD player, a sudden accumulation of remote controls have taken place. Let’s do the math:

Because virtually every home audio/video component is factory equipped with its own remote control, a properly equipped and configured universal model may solve your component confusion woes. Not to mention the confusion of which remote controls the volume when you’re watching TV, enjoying a Blu-ray movie, or enjoying a VCR movie from the 1980s. And that’s if you can even find all five remote controls when you need them. The solution to all this is to opt for a universal remote control.

Logitech Harmony® One Advanced Universal Remote
(Model No: HARMONYONE)

After a little programming, you can have all of your system’s components linked up through a single remote control. A universal remote is a smart way to consolidate the operation and management of your entire home entertainment system into a single, convenient controller.

FEATURES, FUNCTIONS, BENEFITS
Here are some of the features, functions, and benefits to a universal remote control.

Full-color Touch Screen
You’ll enjoy easy, one-touch access to any entertainment activity.

Macros
A common feature on today’s more advanced universal remotes is user-programmable macro controls. For example, let’s say you want to watch a Blu-ray Disc on your HDTV through your home theater system. Instead of individually turning on each component and setting it to the proper mode, simply press the button you have configured with your “Play Blu-ray” macro. The remote then sends the necessary commands to power up your television, Blu-ray Disc player, and home theater receiver.

Ergonomic Design
Ensure the remote fits comfortably in your hand — making it easier to use.

IR / RF
Ensure your remote is capable of operating through walls, ceilings, and floors. This way you don’t have to aim or port at the system. You can just adjust the TV volume in the kitchen or mute the system from your bedroom.

Many remotes, universal or factory models, rely on infrared (IR) light signals to communication with your home entertainment components. This requires a direct line of sight between the remote control and the receiving hardware. However, some remotes utilize radio frequency (RF) signals, which have the ability to transmit through walls, ceilings, floors, and the closable cabinet furniture.

Acoustic Research Universal Remote Control RF Extender
(Model No: ARRE433B)

Rechargeable
Some remotes are rechargeable so you will never run out of battery power while using your remote. Simply set the remote into its base station when not in use.

Buttons
Look for sculpted, backlit buttons. Backlit buttons in logical zones allow you to find the right channel — even in the dark.

Online Setup
Some remotes come with guided online setup. Connect your remote to your PC and you’re guided through every step.

Compatibility
The most devices and brands a remote is compatible with, the more peace of mind you’ll have knowing if you add a new component tomorrow that you won’t have to be a new remote. Remotes such as the Logitech Harmony One are compatible with 225,000+ devices and has support for 5,000+ brands.

Your speakers and your television do exactly what they’re told by the receiver — the brains and brawn behind home theater. The brains come from the ability to separate incoming audio and video digital signals from multiple sources and distribute them to the correct channel. The brawn comes from the ability to dramatically increase the playback volume of the sounds you hear (and feel) without changing the characteristics of the signal.

The receiver is your amplifier, your tuner (radio), your iPod® docking station, and your signal processor for HD audio and video. You won’t have to spend a lot of money to get something compatible with your speakers and your television.

Sony 735-Watt Home Theater A/V Receiver 7.1-Channel
(Model No: STRDH710)

You could own the best speakers and HDTV in the business but without the smarts and the power of a receiver, you have nothing. You’re worse off than watching your old cathode-ray tube television and listening to those tiny speakers located at the base of the cabinet.

When choosing your home theater receiver, there are several specifications you’ll need to understand such as watts and decibels. But, don’t purchase your receiver based only on a watts-per-channel rating as that is only part of the story.

The home theater receiver is known by many different names, but they all refer back to the same thing. That’s as long as you’re talking about a receiver capable of at least 5.1 channels of digital processing and amplification for home theater.

• Home Theater Receiver

• Audio/Visual Receiver
• Surround Sound Receiver
• Dolby Digital/DTS Receiver

Most home theater receivers have the capability of providing the upscaling or upconversion of both digital and analog signals to display on high-definition televisions (HDTV). Upscaling is a mathematical process which matches the pixel count of the output signal to the physical pixel count of your HDTV’s resolution set at 1280×720 (720p), 1920×1080 (1080i), or 1920×1080 (1080p).

Although the images are upscaled, they are not true high-definition images even if the upscaled images were derived from a DVD. The images are simply better than the original source which results in better detail and color consistency.

WHAT DOES A RECEIVER DO?
The receiver acts as a control station and processor for every single input and output signal of your home theater system. You don’t see or hear anything unless the digital signal was received in and then transferred out of your receiver. The receiver receives these digital and analog signals, processes them, and distributes them as separate audio and video channels. The home theater receiver also functions as an AM/FM tuner and docking station for iPods® (video/audio).

As a control station, the home theater receiver performs the duties of three pieces of hardware in one compact unit:

Tuner
Receives all the standard AM/FM stations. Some units have the capability to broadcast XM/Sirius satellite radio (premium service), high-definition (HD) radio, and/or Internet radio.

Preamp
Separately controls the audio and video digital signals for distribution to the speakers and to your television.

Amplifier
Distributes multi-channel (e.g., 5.1, 6.1, 7.1) digital audio surround sound signals and power to the speakers.

Ensure your home system has the brains and the brawn to send thundering audio to your speakers and a rainbow of colors to you HDTV. A poor receiver will take away everything that defines home theater. Look at all the capabilities and the specifications sheet and don’t just focus on one feature — such as watts per channel.

Immediately following the release of the first titles on June 20, 2006, the Blu-ray Disc shook the entertainment world to its core and it doesn’t appear to be slowing down anytime soon. Since the inception of the Blu-ray Disc player, it has matured and the market has been steadily expanding with many advances in performance including stellar HD picture quality, faster disc-handling capabilities, and robust Web features like integrated Wi-Fi and audio/video streaming.

JVC Blu-ray Disc™ Player – Model: XVBP11

BASIC BENEFITS
The benefits of Blu-ray over DVD are vast. Probably the biggest difference is in pixels with traditional DVDs containing fewer than 350,000 pixels, but a 1080p Blu-ray Disc can boast more than two million pixels! You already have an HDTV and cables that can support HD images, add the perfect complement to your ultimate entertainment Mecca — a Blu-ray Disc player.

LG Network Blu-ray Disc™ Player – Model: BD590

COOL FEATURES
One of the best features of Blu-ray Disc players is their capability to also play DVDs, CDs, MP3 files, and even display JPEG images. Nearly all Blu-ray Disc players house a dual-laser optical pickup mechanism. One laser will be blue (hence the name “Blu-ray”) for playing HD discs and one laser will be red for playing/displaying other media. Just to be certain your BD player has both lasers, read the product packaging or literature provided with the player.

Samsung 3D Blu-ray Disc™ Player – Model: BDC6900

Some of the newest BD players have begun to incorporate multimedia features such as the ability to stream movies, TV shows, and vides directly to your HDTV using Netfix® and YouTube™. If your BD player has this capability, simply connect it to your home broadband network through the built-in 802.11 Wi-Fi connection, Ethernet (wired) port, or USB (wired) port.

BD PROFILES
To learn about Blu-ray player profiles, read out Learn Center article title: “Blu-ray Profiles: Identification & Explanation.”

UP-TO-DATE
Because the technologies involved with Blu-ray improve and change virtually by the month, it is important to keep your player as up-to-date as your Blu-ray Discs. It’s a good idea to regularly check for firmware updates to ensure the latest BDs continue to be compatible with your player.

Sharp AQUOS® Blu-ray Disc™ Player – Model: BDHP24U

Most manufactures (e.g., JVC, LG, Samsung, Sharp, Sony, Toshiba) are making these necessary updates easy to locate and install, and many Internet-connected BD players feature both manual and automatic updating functions.

IS MY DVD COLLECTION OBSOLETE?
The key reason why Blu-ray didn’t shove DVDs off the shelf from day one is title selection. But, after the first 36 months on the market, Blu-ray accumulated 2,500 titles. Oddly enough, that is exactly the reason why some people have not stepped up to BD — the fear of their DVD collection becoming a victim of planned obsolescence.

Sony Blu-ray Disc™ Player – Model: BDPS570

If a Blu-ray Disc player is backward/reverse compatible, your DVD collection will look and sound even better. That’s because most Blu-ray players support upscaling the images of traditional DVDs (480p) to 1080p or 1080i.

Let’s face it … HDTV isn’t much without HD content. Other than a Blu-ray Disc, the best places to get HD content are subscriptions services from cable and satellite TV. With eight cable and two satellite providers nationally to choose from, it all comes down to where you live in the United States, your personal preferences, and if you rent or own your residence.

Cable and satellite television falls into the subscription-based services category and is also known as pay television or premium television. Premium channels are part of subscription-based television and are offered in “packages.” For example, DIRECTV offers the Encore channels along with the Starz channels in its “Starz Super Pack.” DIRECTV also offers The Movie Channel, Flix, and the Sundance Channel along with Showtime in its “SHOWTIME UNLIMITED” package.

Most premium channels air unedited, commercial-free movies, as well as original shows and sporting events. With the exception of live sporting events, most premium channels display ratings bumpers before each airing, which contains the film/episode rating. Additional features in the program include closed captioning and whether the program is being broadcast in stereo. Content descriptors have also been included in the program to give warning to the type of content.

In 2005, Sony replaced their “LCD WEGA” line of LCD TVs with the BRAVIA moniker which is an acronym for “Resolution Audio Visual Integrated Architecture.” Sony is a longtime leader in entertainment technology and its BRAVIA line of LCD televisions is no different. The BRAVIA line consists of LCD televisions, projection TVs, front projectors, and home theater systems.

The Sony BRAVIA series is dived into three sub-series:

• S Series (entry level)

• V Series (intermediate)
• XBR Series (premium)

S Series
This series is the low-cost option in the BRAVIA lineup. The S Series HDTVs feature 720p screen resolution, rather than full 1080p. They also have a dynamic contrast ratio of 5000:1 rather than 7000:1 like some of higher-end models. Also, the S Series BRAVIA comes in the smaller screen size sizes of 23, 26, 32, 40, and 46 inches (measured diagonally).

V Series
This series consists of the intermediate level BRAIVA HDTVs. There are only two screen sizes in this class: 46 and 46 inches. Both models offer the same screen resolution (1080p) and contrast ratio (7,000:1) as the premium XBR sets but only have two HDMI inputs and use different digital video processing.

There are only two sizes in this class, 40 and 46 inches, and they offer the same resolution (1080p) and contrast ratio (7000:1) as the XBR sets. The difference is that the V series sets only have two HDMI inputs, instead of the XBR’s three, and they use different digital video processing.

XBR Series
This is Sony’s flagship HDTV. It comes is screen sizes of 40, 46, 52 and 70 inches. The XBR offers three HDMI ports, full 1080p resolution, the most advanced digital video processing, and the highest possible contrast and response time. Some of the XBRs also include optional bezels (screen chassis frames) in different colors. The XBR series is sometimes called the “X” series.

The main differences between the XBR2 and the XBR3 are that the newer series has a piano black bezel instead of a silver one, and an 18-month factory warranty rather than the traditional one year warranty.
In September 2007, Sony brought out the XBR4 and XBR5 series of HDTV. The new sets improved on the XBR3 series in many ways, but the most exciting development was a 120Hz frame rate in the display.

The main differences between the XBR4 and XBR5 are in the appearance of the set itself, but they are basically the same set, much like the XBR2 and XBR3 are the same television. The XBR6 improves on all previous XBR televisions in the expected ways (better picture, better contrast, more well-thought-out features).

The XBR7, XBR8, and XBR9 models build upon the success of the previous XBR models by adding the latest technology such as LED backlighting for better contrast, a 240Hz (very high-speed) frame rate to deliver smoother motion, and internet connectivity to enable you to download content from providers such as NetFlix and Amazon.

BX, EX, NX Series
In 2010, Sony released a new line of BRAVIA HDTV: BX, EX, and NX. This new BRAVIA lines is based on a new iconic Monolithic design and philosophy and a host of revolutionary display technologies. They not only exude aesthetic appeal, but are jam-packed with advanced technologies to provide unparalleled viewing experiences at home.

Series 6

Series 7
Samsung’s Mystic Earth design has captured everyone’s imagination with its mysterious reddish-brown hue and exquisitely designed exterior. The Samsung LED TV Series 7 uses the new Mystic Earth design to deliver a viewing experience like no other.

Series 8

The specification sheet might come inserted as a separate piece of paper in your new owner’s packet or be included in the back of the owner’s manual. Either way this sheet is like a birth certificate telling you the height and weight, and other important tidbits of information about your HDTVs capabilities.

Contrast
When it comes to contrast, it is all about the blacks — and the darker the better. As a specification, contrast refers to the mathematical range difference between the darkest (black) images and the lightest (white) images that a screen can display. For example, a 42 inch LG HDTV (Model No: 42SL80) has a contrast ratio of 150,000:1.

Virtually all HDTVs that are 40 inches or larger have 1080p (1920 x 1080 pixels) screen resolution. Most HDTVs that are 39 inches and smaller have 720p (1366 x 768 pixels) screen resolution. With other specifications being equal, 1080p is a better choice due to the content you can get from streaming, broadcast, satellite subscription services. Plus, 1080p is the same as the native resolution of a Blu-ray Disc player.

Video Connections
Currently, there are only three types of video connections capable of delivering high-definition (HD) resolution images: HDMI, component, and VGA. These cables are used to carry the digital images from your DVD/Blu-Ray Disc player or set-top box to your HDTV.

HDMI is definitely the connection of choice because it is all-digital — delivering the image data exactly as it was sent. HDMI is unique in that it can also carry sound which eliminates the cluster of cables behind your HDTV. As an added benefit, HDMI cables may let you control more than one device with a single click of the remote.

Component video connections rely on three separate RCA connectors marked red, green, and blue (RGB). Although it is technically an analog connection, it can handle 1080p connections. In theory, component video connections may not be as good as a true digital connection — especially if the cable is stretched over a long distance.

Composite video connectors are typically yellow and are made up of a single RCA plug. Cables with this plug often also have the standard red and white RCA plugs for stereo audio channels. Composite video can only carry standard-definition (SD) video images — typically from older devices (e.g., DVD, VCR, or a camcorder).

S-Video uses a round DIN connector that offers slightly better quality than composite video connections do. S-video can only carry standard-definition (SD) video images — typically from older devices (e.g., DVD, VCR, or a camcorder).

VGA video connections can handle up to 1080p resolution HD are often the easiest way to link a computer (PC/Mac) to your HDTV. VGA refers to the d-Sub 15 connection that computers use to make an analog connection to a display.

Refresh Rates
In a nutshell, this value measures how many times the screen refreshes with a new image. The higher the refresh rate value, the smoother your images on the screen will display — especially during fast action scenes.

Samsung 22″ LCD HDTV — 720p
(Model No: LN22C450)

HDTV sets using 120Hz takes the normal 60 images per second from the video signal and creates an intermediate image. The intermediate images are then displayed between every pair of images to create 120 images per second. Some HDTVs double the 120Hz method to make a 240Hz refresh rate. This is accomplished by creating three intermediate images to display between each pair of images.

A common misconception about HDTVs is that everything they display will be stunning and beautiful — right out of the box. While a finely-tuned HDTV displays spectacular images, there are several other components necessary to get that vibrant and detailed HD picture you’re looking for. These components will fall into one of the following five categories: display, source, audio, connectivity, and environment.

DISPLAY
Televisions supporting Full HD (1080p resolution) are capable of providing the best quality pictures. However, 720p and 1080i HDTVs remain the most common and inexpensive, while still providing significant improvements over standard definition (SD) television.

SOURCE
Where your HDTV receives its signal from directly impacts the performance of what you see and hear. Flaws and distortions of an SD source are distracting to most viewers and leave a less than desirable impression of the program being watched. The source describes where the video signal originates: antenna, cable, satellite, DVD player, Blu-ray Disc player, game console, camcorder, etc.

AUDIO
Most high-definition media include enhanced audio as well; the most common is 5.1 channel surround sound. A 5.1 audio system consists of five channels, or speakers, and one subwoofer. The five speakers are located at: front center, front right, front left, rear right, and rear left, with the subwoofer located anywhere in the vicinity (usually on the floor in the corner).

CONNECTIVITY – Video

HDMI: Capable of carrying both digital audio and digital video signals in a single cable, HDMI supports Full HD 1080p resolutions and is the preferred cable for use with today’s high definition media.

DVI: Carries a digital video signal capable of delivering 1080p resolutions.

Component: Combined red, green and blue RCA-like analog cables supporting high definition signals up to 720p and 1080i resolutions.

S-Video: Analog video cable that divides color and brightness, slightly improving the quality of SD content.

Composite: A single, RCA-type analog connector that serves as an acceptable solution for SD sources.

Coaxial: A screw-on type connector that, when connected directly to your TV supports analog video and analog (monotone) audio. This is the least preferred method to connecting to your TV and should only be used when connecting your satellite dish, roof antenna, and cable service to your satellite receiver, tuner and cable box.

CONNECTIVITY – Audio

Optical: Digital audio cable that uses light impulses to transmit a digital audio signal such as 5.1.

Digital Coax: Digital audio cable used to transmit 5.1 and other digital audio signals via electronic pulses.

RCA: A pair of analog audio cables, most often red and white, that delivers stereo sound.

ENVIRONMENT
The environment in which your HDTV sits can play an integral role in your HDTV viewing experience. The primary goals for making an optimal environment consist of controlled lighting and comfort.

Comfort comes in many forms and can include temperature, seating, sound levels, and safety. Because this varies from person to person, it is important you determine your personal preferences and decide what works best for you and your home. Does every seat offer a comfortable viewing experience? Will everyone enjoy the sights and sounds equally?

Controlled lighting is the other environmental factor. By reducing the amount of light in the room, you take away the focus from surrounding objects that would otherwise distract the viewer from the on-screen image. Reflections are among the most distracting objects while watching television, and are caused by poorly placed lights or high-gloss furniture or accents that reflect on or near the picture.

If you’ve found yourself pulling double duty by watching TV while surfing the Internet, you’re not alone. Studies have shown that virtually as soon as the home PC as we know it today was developed, individuals started surfing the ‘net while enjoying their favorite television program. Originally given the moniker of “telewebbers,” nearly 50 percent of today’s TV shoppers are asking for an Internet-connected television.

Not to be confused with the PC or to replace the PC, an Internet-connected TV uses Widgets to gain access to the realm of the Internet. There are Widgets for keeping up with your social networking posts, shopping for great deals, checking fantasy league scores, as well as checking weather updates, finance market changes, and breaking news.

When connected to a broadband Internet connection, services like Yahoo Widgets can be displayed across the screen’s bottom. Additional Widgets can be downloaded, without charge, from the Yahoo Widgets Gallery. Using the network connection, the TV can also display streaming videos, music and pictures from networked computers.

What’s a Widget?
Widgets are basically a gateway on your TV screen to Internet-supplied content in a particular subject. All televisions with Yahoo Widgets can connect to the Internet, and via that connection can populate the Widgets with real-time information and updates.

Personalized Yahoo! Widgets
Press the Widget button on your remote to view your personal Web content without missing a moment of your favorite TV show. Every member of the household can create a profile of their personal selection of Web content through TV Widgets. Go to the Yahoo! Widget Gallery and add Widgets to your profile for Mom, Dad, and the kids. It’s easy — just grab your remote, lean back, and stay connected.

Getting Started – Step 1, 2, & 3
In three easy steps, you’ll be reading USAToday, making a last-second bid on eBay, or posting a status update on Facebook. Here’s what you need to do:

STEP 1	You need to connect your TV to your home internet connection. Reference your user manual or our online How-To Guide on connecting your TV.
STEP 2	Click the “Internet@TV” button on your remote control or access it via the application area of your TV menu.
STEP 3	The first time you access Internet@TV, you will be asked to accept general disclaimer terms and then you can begin the fast and easy set-up process.

Adding Yahoo! Widgets
Once you have your TV hooked up to the Internet and Internet@TV set-up, adding Widgets to your gallery is very easy using the Widget Gallery.

Use the arrow buttons on your remote control to select the Widget Gallery in your dock (dock = area on the bottom of the TV screen). The Widget Gallery displays a list of available Widgets and descriptions of what they offer. The Widgets are grouped into “featured”, “latest,” or simply “all.”

Once you find a Widget you like, you can click on “Add Widget to my profile” and it will be available in your dock. Repeat this process until you have your own customized list of Widgets.

3D movies aren’t new, but blockbuster 3D movies such as Avatar and Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland have created a stir in the movie industry that has finally brought the third dimension of television into the home. 3DTVs, while having the capability of displaying that third dimension, also perform admirably as a 2D television. By simply pushing a button on your 3DTV remote control and wearing a pair of compatible 3D glasses, 3D content will jump right off the screen and into your family room!

Because 3DTV demonstrates the latest in HDTV capabilities, expect to pay a small premium for this feature — roughly 20 percent more than equivalent 2D sets. While this may seem like a lot, keep in mind that early flat-panel televisions were as much as $10,000 dollars compared to an equally-sized CRT priced at $2,000 — a 500 percent premium.

Television technologies have come a long way since CRTs, so how will you know which 3DTV is best? Here are a few things to consider when shopping for a 3DTV.

Refresh Rates
Video signals are actually a series of still images flashed on screen so quickly that we believe we are watching a moving image. The typical television frame rate (or refresh rate) is 60 frames per second (60Hz) meaning that a TV would display 60 individual still images every second. A higher refresh rate is imperative for a realistic 3D display. Look for a “true” 240Hz technology in your LCD and LED models and any plasma refresh rate is rated at 600Hz.

Screen Size
3DTVs are available in sizes ranging from 40–60 inches. As a general rule, consider one size up from a standard 2D TV to minimize peripheral distractions and thereby enhancing the sense of 3D realism. For example, if you’re replacing a 40–42 inch flat panel TV in the family room, consider moving up to a 46 inch model.

Glasses
3D glasses are still required to see that third dimension; however, they’ve come a long way since the flimsy red and blue lenses affixed to the disposable frames of yesteryear. The best 3D viewing technologies can be found in passive (polarized) and active (shutter) glasses.

Samsung 46″ 3D 1080p 240Hz LED HDTV
(Model No: UN46C7000)

Cables
Some cables in current home systems may need to be replaced — even if they are HDMI cables. This is because 3D-capable equipment requires high-speed HDMI cables to transfer the signal. These cables will be labeled at retail locations as “high speed,” and many may even have 3D capable logos on the packaging.

Future Content
When television became popular in the United States in the 1950s, many 3D movies were produced. United Artists was the first to hit the silver screen with a 3D film (Bwana Devil) in 1952. Although 3D content is mostly tied to the cinema, television has had its share of 3D episodes in one hour specials or special events.

One example was the sitcom 3rd Rock From The Sun that aired a two-part Nightmare On Dick Street, where several of the characters’ dreams are shown in 3D. More recent uses of 3D in television include the comedy Chuck and drama Medium.

Contact your service provider is you are on a cable or satellite subscription plan to see what specific shows and/or channels are available in 3D. For cinema to DVD and straight to DVD releases, visit your favorite media outlet to see what is available now and in the future.

Samsung’s 3D Starter Kit (Model No: SSGP2100T)

Samsung’s new battery powered 3D Active Glasses are the gateway to watching Samsung 3D entertainment. Impressive, both in how they function and in what they allow you to experience, the technology works as follows:

When you put them on and look at the screen, the technology first blocks the left and then the right lens. It happens faster than the blink of an eye — so your eye won’t notice it. But when images are shown to each eye separately, this “staggered” effect achieves far more lifelike 3D images.

3D Glasses
Included in the kit are two pairs of 3D Active Glasses (battery powered). The glasses are adult-sized and measure 6.9 inches wide, 1.6 inches high, and 6 inches deep. Even if you don’t normally wear glasses, you’re barely notice these are on your face since they weight a measly 0.08 lbs.

Compatible Products
After adding a Samsung Blu-ray player to your media Mecca, the next logical item is a 3DTV. Here are two compatible televisions to use with the Samsung 3D Starter Kit.

Although relatively new to the world of console gaming, Microsoft has taken their Xbox brand from a dark horse candidate to an industry leader in less than ten years with an award-winning combination of cutting edge components and a quality community experience.

Overview
The original Xbox brought not only amazing exclusive games, but Xbox LIVE, a central online hub for gamers to interact, play together, and get exclusive content from developers. Since the release of the Xbox 360 platform, Microsoft expanded their Xbox LIVE service to include the ability to post to Facebook and Twitter, watch streaming movies from Netflix, and listen to your favorite artists on Last.fm. All that and more is available to any Xbox 360 owner, but the Xbox 360 Elite bundle includes the hardware you’ll need to truly make it the hub of your home theater.

Xbox 360 Elite Bundle (Model No: XB360ELITEB)

120GB Hard Drive
The Elite Xbox 360 comes with enough hard drive space to hold your game saves, downloaded movies, music videos, mp3s and pictures. You’ll even have room left over to install games directly to the hard drive and save time normally spent waiting for the 360’s optical drive to spin faster. The bottom line: This massive 120GB drive has more room than the most avid gamer or the most prolific movie connoisseur.

Wireless Controller
With past consoles, wireless controllers had trouble living up to consumers’ expectations, mainly due to the higher price point and less than optimal reliability. Fortunately the Xbox 360’s wireless controller works at a range of up to 30 feet and has a battery life of up to 30 hours. It even transmits its signal through solid objects, ensuring uninterrupted control whether playing a game or using your 360 to watch DVDs.

Toshiba 19″ Class 720p LCD HDTV
(Model No: 19LV610U)

Media Compatibility
Some DVD-R/DVD-RW and CD-R/CD-RW discs may be incompatible due to laser pick up and disc design. CD-R/CD-RW discs must be recorded using CD-DA method for CD audio playback. The DVD player in this TV may not support some MP3/WMA/JPEG/DivX recordings due to differences in recording formats, disc structure, or condition of the disc (use of CD-RW for MP3 files is not recommended).

Loading a Disc
Load the disc in the disc slot with the label side facing forward (toward you). Hold the disc without touching either of its surfaces, align it with the guides, and place it in position. If a disc is inserted during some modes other than DVD mode, it may switch to DVD mode and then playback may be begun automatically.

Screen Angle
You can adjust the viewing angle of the LCD screen 3 degrees forward or for 10 degrees backward from vertical angle. Hold the base of the TV while adjusting the angle.

Wall Mounting
If you decide to wall mount your Toshiba television, always use a UL Listed wall bracket appropriate for the size and weight of the television. The VESA mounting pattern is 100mm x 100mm.

To mount the television onto the wall, the pedestal stand must be removed first. Carefully lay the front of the unit face down on a flat surface, such as your kitchen table. This will allow the stand to protrude over the edge of the table. To avoid damage to the LCD screen, protect the screen of the television with a quilt or blanket. Remove the two screws that secure the stand to the television. Once you have removed the screws, remove the pedestal stand by sliding it away from the television.

Specifications

Wireless controllers have changed the way both the occasional player and the true gamer play. Wireless technology in controllers is relatively new due to the difficulty involved in keeping the infrared transmitter point at the console while playing the game. The earliest attempts at wireless controllers were cumbersome to operate and lasted only a few hours at best before the batteries required replacement.

(Model No: XBCHGBASE)

A few third-party manufacturers have attempted to develop their own wireless controllers using a radio link instead of infrared signals. Even these were initially very inconsistent due to transmission delays from user inputs. From the gamer point of view, they were virtually useless. In the current generation of gaming consoles, wireless controllers have become the standard. No more cords. They have been replaced with 2.4GHz wireless technology with 30-foot signal range.

No matter how good your Xbox 360 controller is, sooner or later you’re going to need to recharge the batteries. The dual port charging system from Nyko does the trick and will have you fighting demons and conquering worlds again in no time.

Introduced in 2009, Mitsubishi redefined the meaning of “large screen entertainment” with the debut of the world’s largest home theater television — the 82-inch WD82737. In case you’re not sure just how large that is, let’s look at it a different way: 82 inches is equal to 6-feet, 10-inches. At that size, you’ll virtually have a billboard-sized TV in your living room!

Mitsubishi Rear Projection DLP Television (Model No: WD82737)

The WD82737 is a truly larger than life, intensively vivid viewing experience with picture performance that outpaces today’s smaller flat panels. Although large in size, the WD82737 is highly energy efficient and is an ENERGY STAR 3.0 qualified model. One of the coolest features for any HDTV is 3D viewing technology, which provides the best option for enjoying 3D content in the home, and the WD82737 comes right out of the box “3D-ready.”

As if an 82-inch screen doesn’t look large enough, Mitsubishi has managed to make it appear even larger — using a half-inch wide bezel along both sides and the top. Somehow the screen stays in place, giving the WD82737 a nothing-but-screen look. The front cabinet measures seven inches tall and has a flip-down door which conceals a few controls, but no memory cards slots or inputs (they are located on the back and the right side of the TV).

1080p High-Definition DLP Display System
All images displayed on the WD82737 are displayed at 1080p. The TV uses Plush 1080p 5G to convert lower-resolution signals to 1080p for display. The TV can also accept original 1080p signals and maintain them at 1080p through all processing.

Smooth 120Hz
All light hold devices have some degree of motion blurring in fast-moving images or videos. Light hold devices include DLP, LCD, and plasma. Smooth 120Hz displays more fluid, natural, and smoother, fast-moving images that are free from motion blur. By using a new level of motion reproduction, fast-motion scenes are much smoother and natural.

3D Ready
All Mitsubishi 1080p DLP HDTV’s are 3D Ready. This feature lets you experience the new 3D technolo-gies applied to many recent movies, video games, and sporting events. Located on the main connection panel (located on the back of the TV) is a 3D Glasses Emitter port. Use this jack for the special IR emitter supplied with 3D glasses. The emitter will send a signal that synchronizes your 3D glasses with the screen display.

Integrated HDTV Tuner
The WD82737 has an internal HDTV tuner able to receive both over-the-air HDTV broad¬casts (received via an antenna) and non-scrambled digital cable broadcasts, including non-scrambled HDTV cable programming.

Easy Connect Auto Input Sensing
Easy Connect™ Auto Input Sensing automatically recognizes when external devices are plugged into the TV and will immediately prompt the user to assign a name to it. The TV ignores any unused inputs, so the result is an uncluttered menu where you can easily find and select connected devices by name.

Internal Fans
Internal cooling fans maintain proper operating temperatures inside the TV. It is normal to hear the fans when you first turn on the TV, during quiet on-screen scenes, and for a short time after shutting off the TV. You may notice louder fan noise about 30 seconds after shutting off the TV and while using the Bright Lamp Mode.

Unlike the difference in physical appearance between VHS video tapes and DVDs, it takes a sharp eye to discern a DVD from a Blu-ray Disc. It takes even a sharper eye to figure out which profile your BD player is using. Profiles are part of the BD-ROM (read-only format for distribution of HD movies, games, etc.) specification. They define four Blu-ray Disc player profiles, including an audio-only profile (BD-Audio) that does not require video decoding or other software.

All three of the video-based player profiles (BD-Video) are required to have full implementation of BD-J, with varying levels of hardware support. BD-J is a specification supporting Java ME which allows for sophisticated bonus content on Blu-ray Disc titles, including picture-in-picture, network access, and access to expanded local storage.

Each profile has a different set of required features — some optional, some mandatory — which affects what kind of bonus content you can play back. Let’s take a closer look at all four profiles:

Profile 1.0 (Grace Period)
This profile is the original minimum hardware requirement for BD-Video players. As of November 1, 2007, the Grace Period Profile as superseded by the Bonus View Profile as the minimum profile for all new BD-Video players manufactured and released to the market.

When Blu-ray Discs not authored with interactive features dependent on Bonus View or BD-Live hardware capabilities are played using Profile 1.0 players, the main feature can be viewed but some extra features may not be available or will have limited capability.

Profile 1.1 (Bonus View)
The most noticeable difference between profiles 1.0 and 1.1 is the ability for picture-in-picture commentary made available by using advanced video and audio decoders. A small, low-resolution window displays, usually in the lower right-hand corner of the screen, where an actor or other individual provides trivia about a scene while it is plays simultaneously on the screen in the background.

Initially, studios were somewhat reluctant to include picture-in-picture functionality, but its popularity has actually created a demand for this feature.

Profile 2.0 (BD-Live)
As the name implies, BD-Live stands out from profiles 1.0 and 1.1 with the ability to have communication with the Internet, usually with an Ethernet port. Some Profile 1.1 Blu-ray players use an Ethernet port, but they can’t be used to access downloadable content and are only capable of downloading firmware updates.

Another feature of Profile 2.0 is the ability to store downloaded content — either internally or externally suing USB ports or SD card slots. Other than downloading movie trailers, Profile 2.0 provides the ability to use Internet-enabled features.

Profile 3.0 (BD-Audio)
Profile 3.0 is an audio-only profile, intended to be used with audio-only Blu-ray Discs. It opens the door for manufacturers to make low-cost Blu-ray players that lack all the requirements placed on Profiles 1.1 and 2.0 (e.g., secondary video /audio decodes, etc.).

Which Profile Do I Need?
Because technology changes so quickly, purchase a Profile 2.0 player — the most future-proof option currently out there. You don’t want your media to be more advanced than the hardware it is being played on or you’ll be missing out the picture-in-picture feature.

hhgregg proudly carries the LG, Panasonic, Samsung, Sharp, and Sony lines of Blu-ray players.
