It might be the long lines at the theater, the $4.00 for a small bag of popcorn,
or the cutting-edge technology that's now so readily available to the home market.
Whatever the reason, the home theater market today is booming like the soundtrack
to Star Wars! Want proof? A Google search for home theater reveals over three
million results. Yikes!
It's simply undeniable: More and more people prefer watching their favorite
movies, television shows, and videos from the comfort of their own sofas and
couches. What's also undeniable is the inexperience of most people who choose
to install or upgrade their home theaters.
Until now, the knowledge, technique, and experiences of those who've encountered
similar conditions to yours could only be accessed through laborious web searches,
stacks of magazines, and water cooler conversations. Home Theater Hacks from
O'Reilly is the perfect remedy for this group.
A smart collection of insider tips and tricks, Home Theater Hacks covers home
theater installation from start to finish, purchase to experience. Just imagine:
no frustrating trial and error process and better yet, no expensive appointments
with installation experts. Home Theater Hacks prevents both by imparting down-and-dirty
technique not found anywhere else.
The book begins with a quick glossary of terms so you can speak the lingo when
you go shopping, and then dives right into hush-hush, insider tricks. It's all
covered where to find the right audio and video components, how to deal with
speakers and wiring, understanding cable connectivity, mastering remote controls,
how to fully grasp TiVo, and so much more. And to top it off, each of these
insider tips is presented in a concise yet delightfully entertaining style.
Bringing the Jurassic Park dinosaurs into your living room has never been so
easy!
A seasoned veteran with numerous O'Reilly titles under his belt, author Brett
McLaughlin leaves no stone unturned in helping you customize your home theater
experience to your own personal environment.
