Necessary decisions with HDTV are more complex than those that were necessary with the previous technique. It is important to correct this information, or take our entertainment system, will be questioned.
Video module
An ideal size is considered the distance from the viewer HDTV screen that is about 2-3 times the width of the screen. Choose the size of the screen to the right is one of the most important decisions for the purchase of a new> HDTV.
Most consumers say they want to say a wall HDTV. However, according to the NPD Group, consumer and retail research firm Information Market (NPD.com), only 13 percent of current LCD TV owners and 25 percent of plasma TV owner of their unit mounted on the wall.
"Consumers are flat-panel technology for Wall-mounting ability to draw, but the difficulty of such a system, often leading to or seeking alternative solutions as intermediariesPlants. "Said Ross Rubin, director of industry analysis, The NPD Group.
It is tempting to delegate the decision to a local dealer. This is not wise. Studies show that many of the seller at your retailer not an expert or neutral, as we hope. For example, a study that 37% of the sales team avoided plasma HDTV systems because of the customer "in the plasma display was burning, burning out as a problem when severalYears (JD Power and Associates). The study found that customers of the direct supplier systems to expensive LCD.
Watch TV buyers, mass merchants, you can get the survivor with a favorable price and may not expert advice. However, the buyers of television should be aware that lower prices can be found at mass merchants are mainly the fact that most of these operations per second TV brand category, rather than leading brands such as Sony orPanasonic. When prices are compared for a particular model of TV for every type of retailer, the prices are very similar, "JD Power, Larry Wu.
Video Format HDTV: 1080p, 1080i or 720p: the higher number is better, right? Although technically 1080i has a higher resolution, is not the obvious choice. Most networks have opted for the 1080i format, because it offers a higher resolution, while ABC, Fox, ESPN, and National Geographic Channel have chosen togood images of 720p. 1080i is interlaced format (the "old" format) issued, which means that your TV set draws each frame in two passes: once for the horizontal and a second step for the odd lines.
The 720p (progressive format is the standard in Europe) less lines of resolution as 1080i, but produces images that are slightly softer than the interlaced image, especially when a lot of movement on the screen, such as sport.
The new king is 1080p, whichis the best of both worlds. A progressive scan at higher resolution. Po 'programming is currently in 1080p, 1080p, but the systems should be able to convert 1080th base material in an image to 1080p.
Source program
One option was to buy a DVD player, much easier recently. Blu-Ray became the de facto choice with the withdrawal of the alternatives, HD-DVD. The other option, which must be asked is: satellite, cable or antennaProgramming. It is a fourth choice, IPTV, TV over the Internet can not be summarily dismissed.
More than 100 million U.S. households can receive HDTV from your cable system, and all the top 100 cable markets in the country available HDTV programming. Unfortunately, most cable providers, some of 50 + HDTV Networks available. While the selection of local HDTV channels is generally better on cable and satellite, big business satelliteoffer more national HDTV channels that almost every cable provider. By 2010, 60% of U.S. households use a satellite signal, from 15% in 2002.
IPTV is not available throughout the country. Currently, if available, IPTV offers usually around 25 HDTV channels.
Audio Subsystem
The audio component of the HDTV system is very important. George Lucas (Star Wars) once said that audio is half the movie watching experience. Most HDTV programmingtoday includes more than two channels (stereo) audio. The most popular programming in Dolby Digital 5.1, encoding five full bandwidth channels and a subwoofer channel (for the effects of the earthquake).
Surround speakers are two front speakers contain most possible distance from the monitor, two speakers on the back of the room, a center channel above or below the TV, which provides most of the dialogue, and the subwoofer on the floor to the bottom at low frequency.Subwoofers are multidirectional, so you can put anywhere in the room.
If we maximize the impact of our wall mount systems are, we want to use in wall and / or ceiling. This leads to a facility aesthetically stimulating.
System interconnection (wiring)
The cable used is important, but it is important to know what priorities through the cable. E 'spending for consumers with large amounts of money for the cable, but for the wrong reasons,and even lower for a performance.
In order to exploit fully the high-definition programming (HDTV), coaxial cable or component (red, blue and green, sometimes referred to as "RGB")), a cable for Digital Visual Interface (DVI) or a high-definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) cable is required. This is in contrast with the red, yellow and white composite (RCA), cable, or using the round-ended S-Video cable with standard-definition TV.
HDMI is a favorite pick for the final audioand video quality. Look at the back of the TV and you will see several options. Depending on the selected unit might have to buy these cables separately. The cables can be expensive. If you have wide selection on the basis of price, it can be circumvented your choice with the need to purchase a separate cable.
Cables are one of the details that may be poorly chosen and lead to an overall unsatisfactory experience. The details are important.
Installation decisions
Selectright setup. This will be decided by the size and shape of the room. A wall should ideally be at least twice as wide as the display then you should have a minimum distance of acoustic insulation for the front-channel speakers have. Choose a place where the ambient light, especially in front minimized from the screen.
Some models of HDTV, the manufacturers offer a special mount for your installation. Plan about $ 250 for the bracket. If a systempromotes compatible or VESA VESA, VESA stands for Video Electronics Standards Association, and the display is designed to enhance the work with the VESA standards. Otherwise, look at the back of the display and check the screw threaded inserts, which allows a mounting could be attached. A minimum of four inserts screws needed. Tilt wall mounts allow the user to change the angle of the display, and can contribute to the reflection from ambient light.
A wall mount on a wall outside is probably amore difficult to install on an interior wall. Exterior walls typically have more obstacles, including the isolation, for interior walls. Exterior walls can be constructed with blocks of fire. These brackets or horizontal blocks are usually about halfway through the wall, and significantly increase the difficulty of passing the wiring from the display.
Decide if the wires inside the wall or on the outside. They should not be the power cord into a wall asis against the NEC (National Electric Code), except when performed by a qualified electrician. When installing the cables on the outside of the wall, there are tracks of cable management are available at the shop DIY premises, the lock on the wall with an attached cover in place. If the wires are on the inside of the wall is a drywall keyhole must be executed, you saw or a knife to cut holes in sheet rock.
A good idea is to create a, Giessen are used as cover for the cable. If the power cord (s) are outside the wall, then the reasons for the operation of the other (low signal) tubes in the wall. Select a cable tray that matches the wall paint or covering. It 'a very natural and are considered to be easier in the wall socket.
The right hardware HDTV, the best sources of programs, an impressive audio subsystem, the electrical connections well chosen and properly installedThe decisions will result in a system of great theater. Now, get the popcorn.
