How to Choose the Right Home Cinema System

By Neville Booth

Home cinemas can be the perfect accompaniment to the gadget home. It can be difficult to decide where to begin as there is a multitude of options available and with technology advancing all the time an installation can be out of date almost and soon as it is installed. Ideally you want to future proof you system as far in advance as possible to ensure you get the maximum use out of your system. This is especially the case if you plan on spending thousand's of pounds on a system.

Here are some helpful tips on deciding what products to choose:

- TV's (3D, LCD, PLASMA)- What format do you wish to watch
What size TV do you want
- DVD- Standard, HD or blueray
- 3D player, necessary if you take the 3d route
- TV receiver- cable digital or freeview (you will probably have something already)but is this to be linked in
- Sound: dedicated home cinema system with surround sound
Simple hi fi system
- Remote control: all in one or separates

Ultimately the system that you choose will be dependent on the type of system you want and what your budget is. To begin with there are several options available for creating a home cinema system:

- DIY on a budget
- DIY for those with lots of money
- Professional Installation

DIY Home Cinema on a budget

It is perfectly possible to set up a good home cinema for little cost. For instance, if you are willing to consider a projector rather than a TV you can get a very big TV screen for as little as £300 which is also 3d ready. You can also pick up standard audio systems relatively cheaply and as long as you have a aux output on the hi fi can link the TV/projector to produce cinema level sound.

DIY for those with lots of money

This is essentially the same way as the above but can be of a higher specification dependent on the level of the budget you have.

Professional Installation

There are a variety of companies offering excellent professional home cinema systems and if you are willing to spend £10,000's on the system then it is well worth going down this route. Additionally they can link the rest of your home into the system such as security, cameras, heating, lighting and even automated curtains!
