Home Theater

Before You Buy

What to Buy

Tips and Tools



From Robert Silva, your Guide to Home Theater
Welcome to my Weekly Home Theater Newsletter! I hope all of you that braved Black Friday and survived with your wallets at least somewhat intact. However, the holiday shopping season doesn't end with Black Friday. There are still lots of great products and deals to consider. This week, check out my product picks for Home Theater Receivers and Sound Bars. Also, be sure to check out some network media player gift ideas.

Holiday Special - Home Theater Receivers
Here is a great gift idea for the home theater fanatic in your family. The Home Theater Receiver (also referred to as a Surround Sound or AV Receiver) is the heart of a home theater system. It not only provides power to the speakers, but serves as an integrated control center for all of your components, often times providing both audio and video switching. Today's home theater receivers pack in a lot of features and functionality for the home theater enthusiast. If you think that a home theater receiver might be just the right holiday gift, check out my suggestions for home theater receivers in all price ranges $399 or Less, $400 to $1,299, and $1,300 and Up.

Holiday Special - Digital Sound Projectors and Sound Bars
Here is a great gift idea for the holidays. A single component home theater system produces a surround sound listening environment using one speaker box, or one speaker box paired with a separate subwoofer. For some examples of some one and two-piece home theater systems that make great gifts, check out my Digital Sound Projectors, Sound Bars, and 3-in-1 Speaker Systems - Top Picks. For more info on what to look for, check out: The Sound Bar Option.

The Best Network Media Players For 2010 Holiday Season
Which are the best network media players to give as gifts for the 2010 Christmas and winter holiday shopping season? Learn which player is right for each person on your gift list, as reported by About.com contributing writer, Barb Gonzalez

WD TV Live Plus Network Media Player - Review
The WD TV Live Plus HD Media player by Western Digital is smaller than a paperback book. Still, it is powerful enough to find the media on your network and stream it to your TV in 1080p full high definition.The WD TV Live Plus HD also has a fast processor, and is compatible with just about any non-copy-protected photo, movie or music file format . The WD TV Live Plus also adds Netflix and Mediafly, and Hulu Plus*. To find out if the WD TV Live Plus Network Media Player is right for you, check out the review from About.com contributing writer, Barb Gonzalez Photo (c) Barb Gonzalez - Licensed to About.com
