You can use this inexpensive piece as a splitter/combiner. It will be a lot easier than moving plugs around and it’s 6 bucks!

I have a LG HT963TA 5.1 Home Theatre System and it used to be awesome, but now every DVD i put into it skips. At first I thought it was the DVDs but i put them in my computer and playstation and they worked excellent in both. So is it my theatre system?

If so how can i fix this problem?

Also does anyone have reviews for this Home Theatre system?
I already used a cleaner disc on it.

it might be dirty try gettin one of those cleaning disks

I’m looking for a place that will give decent instructions on the wiring and technical parts of installing home theatre systems. I have already tried a few places, but it all seems to be primarily geared at sales knowledge and not actual training and information on the hook ups and settings.

I’d prefer someplace in the DFW area, but any where in the US is satisfactory.

First hand knowledge is a plus.

Do an internet search for CEDA and "ISF". These are two groups who certify designers, installers, calibration.

Also check out "Crestron" – a maker of high-end remote control systems.

I have to warn you – wiring the stuff is easy. The bulk of installation is installing in-wall wiring, custom cabinets, ‘hidden’ speaker and screen installations.

Then you have the gravy job of dedicated media rooms but you have to work in a monied area for this.

A good book is "Sound Studio Construction on a Budget" by F. Alton Everest. It explains a lot of acoustic concepts (the "black magic" of home theater).

I have a 100 rms to 3000 cap component subwoofer that I would like to use for a Home theatre system. How would I power it?

THere are plenty car amps for it, however I can not find one single amp for it to use at home.

Also, how do i make it to where it can hook up into a surround sound system?

You can not use car speakers for home use. Car audio operate on a direct current and home audio on alternating current. You can burn out your speaker or power amplifier. Car audio are designed for small enclosed area, and home audio are for large area. You can buy a subwoofer for your home audio and most of them only handle up to 100 watts, which is enough for most home use. Look for brands like: JBL, Infinity, Definitive Technology, Polk Audio and Klipsch to name a few. Hope this will help you out.

I want to connect my samsung Home theatre system (HT-TX22) to my MB Pro. I only want to use the speakers, since it’s not connected to a TV.

There is no digital input, only AUX in.

Click here to purchase the cable you need: http://www.amazon.com/Belkin-Audio-Cable-Splitter-1-Mini/dp/B00004Z5CP

Anyone know where to look to find information on making a Home Theatre with a good sound system? I’m looking at a budget of 5-7K including a 50 inch LCD. In ceiling speakers for the front two. Any direction appreciated. Thx.

Jefferson you already went $3,000 over budget & you forgot the 50 inch LCD.

Plus the two front speakers are suppose to be in ceiling speakers.

And those $600 Denon DRA-697CI receivers are putting out way too much distortion.
100 watts x 2 into 8 ohms (20-20,000 Hz) at 0.08% THD

http://www.crutchfield.com/S-4XYgTCJKWWW/cgi-bin/ProdView.asp?search=Denon+DRA%2D697ci&i=033DRA697C

Now compare that to the $500 Yamaha RX-797 receiver.
100 watts x 2 into 8 ohms (20-20,000 Hz) at 0.019% THD

http://www.crutchfield.com/S-4XYgTCJKWWW/cgi-bin/ProdView.asp?g=10420&I=022RX797

One fourth the distortion for 30% less money

"Home Theatre has become as American as popcorn at the movies."

http://besthorneelectric.com/hometheater.aspx

"It is believed that the more expensive the ‘gear’ the better overall performance of the Theatre. To many people, retail dealers included, rely too much on the higher performance (higher cost) of the equipment to promote high end results, when lower cost (less performance) systems properly setup and calibrated to the environment can perform just as well. Whether your preference is for a Large Screen Rear Projection TV (RPTV), the latest in Flat Panel or Front Projection systems or even just a plain old tube TV a solution is there. A Home Theatre can be no more than adding a good, cost-effective surround sound system to the Family Room TV or to the ultimate high-end theme theatre that spares no expense – or somewhere in between"

i just moved into a new house and the bonus room had speakers in the corners and around the room, and, they all come together where the tv is. so, i have decided to get a Home theatre. i need to know where to start and what to buy, and i cant spend that much money either. thanks in advance.

Seek the help of a professional.
Why bother burning up good equipment on stupid advice!

Many specifics are needed , How many speakers, what type. impedence values of speakers and amps, details of the room and the equipment are required to give advice

I have a Samsung Home theatre and want the surround sound for my blueray player. I could just go direct to the TV, but not with surround sound. Direction unclear. Any help out there?

Everything (cable box, blu ray, etc) is connected to the home theatre system inputs and the output of the Home theater system goes to the TV. Turn the TV speakers off and use the home theater system for the sound.

I’d like to be able to play sky tv via the Home Theatre kit but the optical lead does not work?

Try going to the link below it shows you how to connect home theaters dvds vcr etc.
