Selecting a TV for Home Theater 
To recreate all of the impact and excitement of today’s blockbuster movies, you’ll want to have the biggest TV possible to fit your room and budget. The home theater experience is all about big: a big picture and big sound. Without these, you might as well be watching a 19" tube TV. 

Flat-panel TVs  
For home theater, the best television technology often depends on the size of the room. Plasma, LCD, or LED flat-panel TVs are often a great choice, especially in smaller media rooms where space is at a premium. The picture quality can be amazing and there and since they mount flat against the wall, they take up very little room. There are even new 3D versions available if you want a little taste of the future of TV. But the major limitation is the screen size. 65" screens are pretty much the limit, at least without going into the limited production, and very expensive, 105" and 150" models.

DLP TVs 
If the TV isn’t going to be wall mounted, you might want to consider a DLP projection TV. They’re not as thin as a flat-panel plasma or LCD TV, but nevertheless DLP provides truly spectacular high definition images in screen sizes up to 72". But the biggest advantage that a DLP projection TV has is the price. You simply can’t beat the value they offer. In TVs, “thin may be in,” but “thicker just might be slicker.”

Video projection systems
In larger media rooms, the best solution is often a video projector with separate video screen. With these so-called two-piece video projector systems, the size of the screen is entirely open. If the room lighting can be controlled with dimmers and shades and if the viewing distance is far enough, screen sizes of 200" or more are entirely practical, and often recommended. Imagine how exciting that would be.

Don’t forget the surround sound
The home theater experience isn’t only about a big, beautiful TV; it’s also about the emotional impact of great sound. Keep this in mind when you plan your budget.
