Home Movie Theater Screens
When it comes to deciding on a screen, the first consideration is the kind of screen you want or even may need. If the room where you are going to set up your home theater is a big one, then you will need to have a home theater projection screen or maybe you just want one anyway.
I, personally, like the idea of having a drop-down screen, but sometimes you have to have one even in a modest home theater. It converts your living room into a home theater: you recline in your chair; click a button and a screen drops down; click a button and the lights dim; click another one and the movie begins!
However, if you prefer a television screen, then you might be considering buying a new one. They say that a 27 inch screen is adequate, but I do not agree. I really think you need 48-60 inches, but then I am a baby-boomer and my eyes are definitely not what they were.
If you are purchasing a new TV for your home movie theater, I think you should aim high. HDTV is already here and since February 2009 the USA has been committed to High Definition. Therefore, I would ensure that your new television is able to receive it. Then I suggest that the new home movie theater screen be a flat one in order to reduce the annoying glare that could ruin your experience, which could be another reason for choosing a projection screen.
Then you should ensure that your new television has enough input and output plugs for the equipment you plan to use and you're ready. Therefore, to summarize, I would choose:
More than a 27 inch screen
A flat screen
HDTV compliant
Sufficient input and output sockets
Satellite enabled
I would definitely get a receiver which is already satellite enabled, because it is the future or even the near future. If you get a satellite TV connection you will have access to HDTV downloads which you can watch on your new home movie theater installation whenever you want. - 23815
