Answer 1

Grumpy Mac is absolutely correct but I think he gave you way too much information. To begin with a good HT (home theater) will sound BETTER than any movie theater. It is true that some DVDs don&#039;t have the greatest sound tracks but the same would be true seeing it at a theater. If the quality is not there to begin with it won&#039;t be there at the theater and it won&#039;t be there on the DVD.

The sub-woofers used to fill up a theater with sound are a totally different creature than a home sub-woofer. So are the other speakers. However, for a moderate price you can easily better the sound in most movie theaters at home.

There are the answers to your questions if I read you right. If you are considering buying or setting up your own HT I&#039;d STRONGLY suggest you learn something about it. But it&#039;s your money you&#039;ll be throwing away if you don&#039;t.

Answer 2

A good subwoofer IS the secret behind good home theater.

First - look into SVS woofers or HSU Research woofers.

Second - look into a device called a &quot;Behringer Feedback Destroyer&quot;

Third - do some internet research on &quot;House Curve&quot;.

Learning these will help you install and adjust your home theater system to mimic what commercial movie theaters have.  It&#039;s NOT just about the equipment - but how it is positioned in the room and how it is calibrated.
