How to Buy a Dvd Player for Home Theater Use
If you are still watching your movies on a Vhs player, there is a whole world of video that you are missing in Dvd. The dissimilarity in quality in the middle of old Vhs video and Dvd video is easy too great to ignore. Even if you already own a Dvd player, it may not be the best choice you could make for home theater use.
There are some very important features that you need from a Dvd player. Be sure to understand all of the following, before you go to buy a Dvd player for home theater use. If you have bought one already, you need to check the model and make sure it fulfills all that you need, or you might find you need to buy a new model soon.
Sound Requirements
First, you need to find the audio production connections of the Dvd player and compare them to the speakers you will use in your home theater set up. If you have surround speakers, like "Dolby Digital" labeled speakers, the Dvd player needs to have a multi-channel audio production relationship for compatibility.
If your speakers are for example 6.1 speakers, the Dvd player should have connections for similar output. That is why it is sometimes great to buy a home theater system, where the Dvd player comes with compatible surround speakers. Remember to also test the speakers for sound quality, if you buy one of those packages.
Video Requirements
There are many dissimilar video connections still in use and you will need to make sure the Dvd player has an production relationship of the same type that the input relationship of your television set or home theater projector (whichever you use) is. Otherwise they are simply incompatible.
Video connections used often contain composite video connections, s-video and component video connectors. Of these component video or s-video connections are recommended, because they have a great photo quality. Composite video relationship is older technology, and not of high sufficient quality for serious home theater use.
Remember that a Dvd player is often the most important part in a home theater system, being responsible for both audio and video connections. Consider your options carefully, and always make sure the parts of your system are compatible with every other part. If you are unsure about buying a Dvd player for home theater use, buy a home theater container where the Dvd player comes with speakers, so there is one compatibility issue less to worry about.
