Professional Home Theater Installation Vs DIY
by Mike Jarboe
When making a home theater purchase, one of the things you should consider is whether you want to install it yourself or hire a professional. For some people, this decision is more difficult than making up their minds what size LCD TV to pick, or what type of speakers to use.
Let me try to help you weigh your options.
When setting up a new home theater, there are many things that need to be researched in order to attain optimal performance, such as room acoustics, ambient light, speaker size, placement, type of cables, and control interfaces. A huge factor in how a system performs is how each component is configured once installed. This can make or break the quality of your home theater.
If you decide to take on this project on your own, one of the benefits is cost. You will save on the expense of hiring someone to come into your home and do the installation. The trade-off is your time. There are a lot of "how-to" guides on the Internet that would be helpful to you in completing your project. Make sure you have enough time set aside for research on installation techniques and correct speaker placement, and enough time to complete the installation. Depending on the size of the project, the installation could take days for a person who is not in the industry.
Assuming that you have the time and patience for this, be sure that all of the components work correctly with each other. This will maximize the picture and sound you enjoy in your home theater.
If you decide to hire a professional home theater installer, they will call on years of experience to select products that work best in your room. The time frame for completing a project will also be much quicker because your professional installer will help you decide what components work best for your home theater; there's no need for you to do all the research.
Home theater installers will be able to set up your equipment and maximize performance because they know the correct settings for your room environment. They take a lot into consideration, such as room acoustics and ambient light. A big factor for most people is that they are able to leave this big project to professionals and know that they have correct setup, plus product and dealer support if something does go wrong. Most professionals offer free service calls in the event of problems.
Whether you decide to dive into it on your own or hire a home theater professional, this project should be enjoyable and fun. And remember - a home theater tech can always bring your project to a satisfactory conclusion if you start it and find out you're in over your head.

I surprised my husband with this media room, inspired by HGTV designer Candice Olson. I did all the work on a DIY budget. Detailed info here: http://www.ratemyfavoritespaces.com/
Brown wall color is Sherwin Williams' "Toasty" in flat finish.
Details: Panasonic AE3000U 1080P projector, Denon 1909 AV Receiver, Aperion 7.1 cherry speakers/SW, Stewart Firehawk 100" screen, PS3, DirecTV HD DVR, Apple TV, VUDU, Slingbox HD Pro, Harmony 890 remote, BDI cherry cabinet.
If you need reinforcement with the wife or SO, tell them American Idol, Dancing with the Stars, HGTV, Food Network all look amazing in 1080p. (With a Harmony remote, she can operate the theater too.)
Please note: The lights were on for shooting this video, but not when we watch TV or movies.
