hey guys there! i am really confused what should i buy. i am intrested in buying a system for my room. i would play movies and music both on the system .so what should i buy a home theatre system or a dvd hi-fi system? plz suggest me.
Answer
I would buy a combination of both of them .Thats what i
ended up doing for myself .Long before DVD's, Widescreen Television and Home Theater became available i used to listen to music all the time.I have been interested in high quality sound reproduction for over 40 years.and have upgraded my components many times and the system i have now gives me great pleasure listening to music.I was lucky enough to have a dedicated listening room built onto the back of my house .The room is 26 feet long.15feet wide and 8feet high.
The equipment i have at the moment for listening is :
Pro-Ject turntable,JH formula 4 arm and Ortofon cartridge.
NAD dvd cd player.
NAD pre-amp
QUAD 306 POWER AMP.
Carver c9 sonic hologram generator.
Rogers studio 1 loudspeakers.
Van Den Hul new silver inner tonearm wire
Van Den Hul tonearm to pre-amp cable
Cable Talk interconnects
Van Den Hul loudspeaker cable.
The room has curtains covering the side walls..
the wall adjacent to the back wall has a large window and i originally had heavy curtains that opened and closed from the middle of the window. the back wall where the seating is located is bare.
The reason for having all this covering is to hear the sonic advantages of the hologram generator. When the hologram generator is working correctly the soundstage is dramatically changed from the narrow stereo image that forms between the 2 loudspeakers to a very wide and deep and spacious panarama .It frees the sound from the constraints of the speakers and from the confines of the listening room
I hope i am not boring you with all this detail but this is how i achieved the system that i am finally (i hope) happy with.
I take it that you are starting from scratch and are not going to use any equipment you may already have. How much money are you prepaired to use.Have you set yourself a limit .Not knowing makes it a bit hard to recommend a particular brand but we will give it a go .
You will need a surround sound A/V amplifier or receiver.
If you buy a surround sound amplifier that has everything in the one chassis you will be limited to your hi fi sound for music.
I would buy a separate pre-amp and power amp to give you more flexability.If you are not too concerned abou listening to am or fm radio you don't need a receiver. It is extra circuitry which dergrades the sound .
NAD have separate surround sound preamplifiers with all the home cinema circuitry plus you can use it for dedicated listening of music.
Then you have a choice of separate power amplifiers with 5,6, or 12 channels
Hope this has been a bit of help for you.
I just want to quickly tell you what happened when i set up my projector and screen. I was aware that i was only going to hear some of the audio because i did not have a surround sound amplifier and extra speakers around the room and no subwoofer.
The sonic hologram gave me a huge auditorium with sound streaming past me with unbelieable depth behind me .I am not making this up it was truly amazing .I new it made music come alive but not all the extra info. in multi channel.
So my friend i have the best of both worlds without paying for other equipment.
Good luck in your search for your equipment'

Answer
Projectorcentral.com was my main source of information when selecting the projector, screen, and their vendors. Thanks for the valuable information on this site. My home theater is set up in the basement. The room is 13' by 20'. The room was finished with sound isolation in mind. The wall separating the home theater room and the adjacent rooms are double walled with fiberglass insulation in between for soundproofing. Because of wiring and plumbing on the ceiling, suspended ceiling system is used. This offers the opportunity to use acoustic tiles to significantly reduce the sound to the upper level. Suspended ceiling also makes wiring the home theater system a lot easier. There are two windows on one side of the room and a rear half glass door leading to the breezeway connecting the garage. I use room-darkening shades on the windows and the door to control the light for daytime viewing. The entrance to the room at the front is a full glass door. With this door closed, sound is confined to the theater room, except the occasional low frequency rumbles from the subwoofer if it is turned up high enough.
The room is an existing TV room with a 42" standard definition rear projection TV and a surround sound system, purchased about 4 years ago. We have decent sound, but a 42" 4:3 format TV just does not look right, especially when showing widescreen format DVDs. With the price of front projectors dropping to a more affordable level, and the availability of high definition program sources, it seems to be the right time to acquire a larger screen TV. I bought the system in November. A 108" Elite Screens motorized projection screen is installed to come down in front of the existing TV. I can still use the TV for watching news and other non-high definition TV programs. The source of high definition programs is from the cable TV tuner with a built in high definition Digital Video Recorder. The DVR is a wonderful feature. It records high definition programs with Dolby Digital surround sound as well. The cable tuner/DVR is rented from the cable service provider. It does not seem to make sense to buy this type of equipment, since technology moves so fast. The quality of this Elite Screens model seems unbeatable for the price. Before the installation of the screen, the center channel speaker was placed on a shelf on top of the TV. With the screen lowered, it muffled the center channel sound. Instead of spending a lot more on an acoustically transparent screen, my solution is to place the center channel speaker on the bottom shelf of the TV stand. It is not the ideal position, but it is a compromise.
When choosing the projector, I narrowed down to the Panasonic PT-AE700U and the Sanyo PLV-Z3 based on the reviews on the projectorcentral.com web site. The final decision was an easy one once I decided to mount the projector on the ceiling. The wider lens shift range of the Sanyo Z3 made flush mounting the projector to the ceiling possible. I did not want to use keystone correction.
I did the installation myself. I rewired the recess lightings in the room into 3 groups controlled by dimmers. When lights are turned off, the two rear lights can still be dimmed to a comfortable level, and yet post virtually no effect on the screen. I also wired one power outlet for the projector and another one for the screen inside the ceiling. The Peerless ceiling mount is mounted to the ceiling joist through the ceiling tile with a 2.25" threaded pipe and pipe flange purchased from the home center. The projector is mounted about 12 feet from the screen. The screen is also mounted directly to the ceiling joists through the ceiling tiles, using quarter inch threaded rods and angle irons. The nicely designed mounting system of the Elite Screens HOME series model makes the screen installation quite simple. I did not want the expense of the home theater seating. I kept the sofa and love seat set already in the room. I just replaced the legs of the sofa and love seat with chair casters, so that they can easily be moved around if needed for more comfortable viewing position. The sofa is positioned about 13 feet from the screen.
The audio system is about 4 years old and they are in great shape and produces excellent sound quality. All the speakers are Polk Audio speakers with models that maintain proper voice matching in the surround sound setup. Having a large screen is great, but I cannot stress enough that a decent Dolby Digital and DTS surround sound system is the other half of the home theater enjoyment. They complement each other.
