Why shouldn't you buy a 60-inch plasma TV? Because there's a much better, affordable solution. How would you like to be able to look at an 8 FOOT screen with quality comparable to 16mm film projection? What if I said you could get it for under $1200? Well, you can with a projection TV.

Projection TV

If you're going low-budget, one well-reviewed option is the Mitsubishi HC3000U High Definition 720p DLP Home Theater Projector. PC World, the computer magazine, honored the HC3000U with a 2006 PC World Innovations Award after comparing it to hundreds of other products. Compared to other projectors, the midtones are much brighter, which results in richer blacks and a more vivid image overall. It's even a cinch to install. As of this writing, it's run you about 950 bucks.

Mounting Hardware

If you're planning on mounting the projector in the ceiling, you could go with the Atdec TH-WH-PJ-FM Telehook Universal Projector Flush Mount. The mount allows the projector to be rotated a full 360 degrees, and has a quick release for easy installation. That'll run you about 50 bucks.

Projection Screen

You'll want a screen to go along with your home theater projector. You could project it on a bare white wall, but you won't get the best possible performance out of your projector. The budget option is to get a manual screen, as opposed to an electronically operated one. One highly-rated manual screen is the Draper Screen Luma 106" Diameter. That's about 130 bucks.

Audio

If you're hooking your equipment up to your stereo, you'll already have excellent sound. That's the budget solution anyway.

Summary

Did I keep my promise to get you a killer home theater system for 1200 bucks? Let's see -- $950 for the projection TV, $50 for the mounting hardware, and $130 for the screen. Happy viewing!

LCD TVs have no chances whatsoever for burn-in unlike the plasma televisions. Because of this advantage, you can make use of it as a video monitor. You can enjoy crystal clear picture as you play a video game, making the game more enjoyable. One of the attributes of an LCD TV is that it is very flexible, which is a reason why many people are just loving it.

The first LCD screens were the computer monitors. After the success of such production, they sought to produce larger screens which later on led to the manufacturing of televisions. Most of the characteristics are retained but they have to improve the quality of picture so that they can compete with the plasma technology.

How to make your LCD monitor into a video monitor? Here are some tips. First off, make sure that you have the proper TV. By this, we are talking about the connection from TV to PC. For you to be able to switch from TV to PC, your television must have a VGA or a connection that supports computer or a gaming system. You cannot start if you do not have these.

Place your computer near the LCD television unless you want to be tripping yourself with the wires all over your house. The distance should be such that when it is time to use it for your computer, the distance will be just right. Many people tend to forget this. They want to use their LCD to their computer but their PC is far from the LCD TV.

The next step would involve placing all the necessary wires and cables properly, and at locations where you can easily switch them. If you know how to do it, you can even set it up such that you only have to switch to a channel to access your TV or your PC without a lot or work involved.

Using your LCD TV as a video monitor is important. The pictures are very bright and the colors are absolutely vivid. You just have to make sure that you have the right TV and you must be prepared. Having all of these, you are now ready for the multiple use of your LCD TV.

Imagine a world without music. Difficult, at best. Music can change a mood, set a tone, deliver a message and transport you into an entirely different setting. The biggest thing that home theater and the iPod has done for the public is to bring an appreciation for involvement and convenience. While these are great things in of themselves, it has also removed the ability to evaluate the importance of an investment in better audio gear. Many times, I have been asked to design a system with a specific budget in mind. Often the primary goal at the onset is a home theater. However, very often when questioned about the percentage of use with music only, the response is usually around 50%. Mind you, there are dedicated theater rooms which will almost never see music unless it is a concert video. That being said, for those of us with both senses of sight and sound, I challenge you to sit through 2 movies, one with earplugs and watch the movie, the other with a blindfold and listening to the story. Which one do you think you will come away with knowing what happened? My guess is the one that you could hear but not see.

I am not diminishing the importance of good video, just that the weight should be more evenly distributed. It is true that if you build a home theater with no intent of using it for audio purposes, then pretty much anything is fair game. After all, there are few that have been at ground zero during an explosion and lived to tell what it sounded like.

I have always been a proponent of making a significant investment in the audio side of the system. This would include omitting the center channel and the rears during the initial purchase. After all, we know what a piano, guitar and many other musical instruments sound like. If we have a winning solution in the stereo department, the home theater almost invariably HAS to sound good. This is not in any way a suggestion to NOT do surround, just a thought of taking the starting budget and investing in a better 2 channel biased system. Still purchase the surround processor and amplifier or receiver for when you are ready to add the other elements. For more just Google. So, in conclusion you never have to be Home Alone. You can go wherever you want, be whomever you want to be, and be with anyone you want to be with. Just let the music take you there. (sorry, had to go there)

A great stereo system can create the feeling of involvement through many soundtracks. It is indeed the mood that the artist is trying to convey. The better it is reproduced, the better we are able to release ourselves into the consciousness that was intended. There have been numerous studies done on the effect of music on us. Just put "effect of music on humans" in Google.

Picking out a new TV is difficult, especially with the range of choices available, from 780p, 1080i, 1080p, different HDMI inputs, brightness, hertz - the list is endless. If you don't do your research before attempting to buy, you end up trolling hundreds of reviews various websites, hoping that you find something everyone can agree on as the "best" for it's size and price.

With the Samsung LN46A650, there's no need to look any further. This TV is part of Samsung's Series 6 LCD HDTVs; simply put, more of everything, and better. With the Series 6 TVs, you get full 1080p HD, which is the best available. With the 1080p resolution, you are able to view literally every pixel in HD broadcasting or DVDs. The 1080p has progressive scanning, which means that the image you are viewing is shown with the all the lines of the image going sequentially, instead of the interlaced mode of the 1080i TVs. Beyond that, the color on the LN46A650 is amazing - the blacks are deep and well defined, while the other colors remain sharp and crisp.

With this TV, the response time for switching modes has been decreased to 4ms. This decrease, along with the 120hz image interpolation, provides with sharper images and smoother motion when changing between modes from the TV, such as switching from a game console to the cable broadcast. With the 120hz, the TV is able to input the image that comes between the first and second frames, making the transition much smoother, and doubles the frame rate from 60 to 120 for the best viewing possible.

Along with the four HDMI inputs, the TV also comes equipped with an Ethernet port, and the InfoLink RSS service to get up to date weather, sports scores, and local news. This is a nice touch for people who are eventually going to be building a media PC with their TV; everything looks great on this screen, even YouTube.

With TruSurround, the built in sound system, the bass is deep and dialog and sound effects are crisp and clear, even with the two speakers in the TV. It is compatible with all multichannel formats up to 5.1 channels, giving you top notch virtual surround sound.

Out of the box, the TV is easy to use and set up. It is ready for wall-mounting immediately and can be hooked up to any mount you have. The Touch of Color in this TV is red, giving the typical black coloring a nice shine and a red glow to it.

Overall, this is the best HD LCD TV you'll find for this price, and is one of the bestselling models for the season.

Composing, recording and reproducing music is not enough; it should reach the ears of the music lovers. And that is why, beside other musical instruments, the speaker is also an important component of the music gear. A speaker is a device through which we receive the sound or the music. Therefore, it is very essential to choose a good speaker that will deliver high quality sound and which has high frequency level like the 2-way speakers and 3-way speakers.

However, most of the speakers of the recent times are engineered to reproduce lively and dynamic digital sources. Having been made in innovative designs, they deliver detailed and powerful sound. Moreover, nowadays there are various options to choose, starting from large floor-standing powered tower speaker to great sounding satellites that will fit in the palm of the hands. However, as the options go on increasing, the choosing has to be done very carefully.

The first step in choosing a good speaker is to decide what kind of speaker is required: whether it is a floor-standing speaker, a subwoofer or satellite system speaker, and an in wall, in ceiling or an outdoors speaker. Actually, choosing the type of speaker will depend on the purpose for which it is going to be used. Now, all these different speakers have different qualities and features. For instance, subwoofers are the tiniest speakers with amazing performance whereas, floor standing speakers are the larger ones with wide range of frequencies and deep bass. Therefore, a proper decision has to be made as to which one to prefer.

One more fact is related to the listening level. High sound does not mean loud noise; it means quality sound with normal listening levels. With this comes the nature of the sound. A good speaker should deliver clear, natural and lively sound with no distortion. And moreover, a good speaker should have the capability to make the illusion of a live performance very believable.

Next thing to decide is whether to choose a branded speaker or a second hand one. This is a matter that depends upon the quality of the speaker. It is not necessary that the imported or branded speakers will be better. Often they prove to be good but features should be checked properly. This is also a fact that the used speakers too are fine sometimes but that needs minute checking. In fact, used speaker is quite inexpensive.

But in case of the speaker required for professional use such as stage performance, television and radio, there are professional speakers available that are technically strong and are highly qualitative. But usually they are expensive.

It is not only the quality of the sound that matters while going for a good speaker. In fact, besides other things, the cabinet is another thing that has to be of excellent quality. Moreover, the cabinet construction has to be good. If the material is low quality plastic or thin timbre in the rears then noise will be more from the cabinet, as they will come from the drivers. If the cabinet is to move plentiful air, it really has to be static and rigid.

There is now a new entrant in the sub-notebook category, and that is the MSI Wind.

You'll find that there will be two main models in the USA. There is the cheaper SUSE Linux PC costing $399 and the more expensive Windows XP version at $549.

Both models share the same 1.6GHz AtomTM processor. They'll have a 3 USB ports, Wi-Fi 802.11b/g and a 1.3M pixel webcam. The six-cell battery should give you about 6 hours of life on one charge; however, you may need to check if the 3 cell battery is fitted. The basic hard disc drive is 80 GB. The screen will be a 10 inch back-lit screen. The screen size and the hard drive give it a definite advantage over the ASUS EEE 901.

You will find that the Linux model will have 512Mb of RAM compared to 1 GB for the Windows XP version. There are two RAM slots, which will make it possible to enlarge the RAM available.

Options on the machine include up to a 320Mb hard drive, and you can even have a different outside color. The choices are black, white and pink.

You will find that the proposed Wind with an 8.9 inch screen is not planned to be sold in the USA.

Yet, the whole system weighs only 1 Kg (2.2 lb) and is so light in weight even for a purse or shoulder bag. It does not have a sold state hard drive and because of that the machine is not as robust as the ASUS EEE.

Is this going to be the second machine for a family or a small office? It is built to be used while traveling, and it is a good size to fit in the tray on the back of seats which are on aircraft or trains.

Yes, there are major differences between the MSI Wind and the ASUS EEE 1000, and the main one is the fact that the MSI can have far larger hard drives. They will both be served by the same AtomTM processor and it will be interesting when the speed comparisons are published which machine runs at the higher speed.

It will be very easy to mistake the Wind for an EEE as they have the same plastic look and feel. The color contrasts in the Wind will give a great contrast but when you have a white wind and a white ASUS EEE it will be difficult to immediately tell the difference. For you as the buyer, the size of the hard drive will probably be the deciding factor between the EEE and the Wind.

Are you wondering whether you should buy a Kindle or a netbook? We have researched the different options so you don't have to. Need to know what an IT person thinks, then go to http://www.boysbach.com

Though the modern microphones follow the same principle, they do it electronically. And thus, it captures pressure waves in the air and converts them into electric signals. Microphones are of different types, and they differ in their functioning too. Generally, there are five types of microphones commonly used for various purposes.

Condenser microphones: They are also called capacitors as the diaphragm acts as one plate of a capacitor that responds to the sound waves. The movement that happens changes the capacitance of the capacitor and it is amplified to create a signal. However, these microphones run on a small battery to provide voltage across the capacitor. These microphones produce high quality audio signal and are commonly used in studio recordings.

Dynamic microphones: These microphones work through electromagnetic induction. In this system, the sound wave creates a vibration in the diaphragm which makes the magnet or the coil to move and this movement creates a small current. However, these microphones are very hardy and resistant to moisture and are quite economical. And thus, they are widely used for stage performances.

Ribbon microphones: In these microphones, a thin metal ribbon is suspended in a magnetic field. And it is moved by the sound wave that changes the current flowing through it. Ribbon microphones usually do not require phantom power but there are some ribbon microphones that have pre-amplifiers and so need phantom power.

Carbon microphones: These are perhaps the oldest and the simplest microphones that were once used in telephones. Carbon microphones use carbon dust and they have a thin metal diaphragm on one side. As the diaphragm is hit by the sound waves, it compresses the carbon dust that changes its resistance. By running a current through the carbon, the changing resistance changes the amount of current flow and thus produces an electrical signal. Although they are quite robust they cannot reproduce high quality sound and have limited frequency. But these can be used as a type of amplifiers.

Crystal microphones: These microphones have a diaphragm attached to a crystal that crates a signal when the sound wavers hit the diaphragm. Basically, the crystal microphone uses the theory of piezoelectricity. However, they are commonly used with vacuum tube equipment like domestic tape recorders.

Other than these types of microphones, there is another type of microphone that is widely used these days. It is called wireless microphones. They are portable and have a versatile way of recording and broadcasting sound, without a cable connection.
