Creating the Perfect Home Cinema
The advancement of home cinema technology has gotten to the point where there is almost no reason to go to a true cinema at all. Advancements in the construction of televisions and speaker systems have allowed home users to replicate the look and feel of the cinema without high cost, and the use of DVDs and Blu-Ray discs permit home viewers to see the film in the same resolution and clarity as in the cinema. For some cinemas, the resolution is actually better at home than in the cinema, thanks to various film restoration projects.
The most important part of any home cinema is the screen. The choice is generally between a projector and a flat-screen television. Their cost is comparable, but generally flat screen televisions are preferred since they do not need to be mounted on the wall or ceiling nor do they need to have a clean wall or screen to project on. In either case, it is generally accepted that Japanese models produced by Toshiba and Sony offer the finest quality and construction, although the Korean Samsung and Taiwanese Vizio are excellent models for the budget conscious. The key is to select a television with at least 720p resolution, although 1080i is ideal because it allows for clarity of image almost at the maximum level that can be detected by the human eye.
After selecting the perfect television or projector, it is important to get a sound system to match. Many of the aforementioned televisions have built-in speakers; however they do not offer the clarity and power of external speakers. Again, Sony and Toshiba are at the forefront, although Pioneer and many German manufacturers offer products that are competitive or even superior in some fashion. Ideally the speaker setup should be surround sound so as to most closely match that of the theatre, although a basic stereo system is enough for most movies, especially classics films which were not filmed in surround sound.
From there all that is left is to select the décor and choose the furniture. In general it is a good idea to angle the chairs towards the screen and stagger them, or else use a large couch to permit everyone to have a good view of the screen. In some cases it may be necessary to tweak the speakers or add sound-absorbing panels to the walls to either keep from annoying the neighbours or maximise the sound quality.
