Try Making Your Prescott Home a Mini HD Movie Theater

There's almost no good reason for going to the movies these days, unless you absolutely can't wait to see the very latest releases. Why overpay for such an inconvenient entertainment experience when you can easily turn the living room of your Prescott home into a mini movie theater? Using high quality HD television equipment as well as the appropriate media, your experience at home is going to be just as visually appealing as a movie theater but without any of the associated annoyances.

When you stay at home to enjoy your entertainment, you're going to be paying less while getting a better overall experience. You won't have to overpay for expensive popcorn, hot dogs, or sodas, and instead of a movie costing $10 per person it's going to cost $10 to $20 for the movie itself, at the most. For example, while it would cost a family of five at least $50 to go to the movies in Prescott, it would cost that same family only $10 to $20 a home, depending on the price of the movie. And you may not be able to notice a difference in quality if your home theater setup makes use of all the latest HD technology. Additionally, you're not going to have to deal with noisy neighbors, inconvenient bathroom breaks, or uncomfortable seats neither.

Before you can enjoy your experience at home though, you need to make sure you have the right hardware in place. The two things that you absolutely must have are a good television set and a good sound system setup. Fortunately, deals abound on both these days. When it comes to televisions, make sure that your set features 1080p HD resolution, which is the highest currently available. In general, the more you spend the more you're going to get, but there are some amazing value TVs out there right now. When it comes to sound systems, go for quality over quantity. A high quality 5.1 speaker setup is preferable to a 7.1 speaker setup of lower quality. In the end, it pays to go to a store and sample the various hardware in person.

The second part of the equation is the media that you use. Although you could spend the money and go through the trouble of building up a Bluray collection, there are more affordable routes you can take. Two examples are online movie streaming sites like Netflix and satellite TV entertainment. Netflix allows you to watch movies at a low price, but you're going to have to have a strong internet connection for that to run properly. You're also going to have to connect a computer to your television set too. Satellite service on the other hand is a stand-alone solution that features more than just an impressive selection of movie programming. It also has regular TV shows that span the whole gamut of genres. You'll also get access to an amazing array of sports programming as well, which is a major selling point for some people. Although it's going to be a bit more expensive than the dirt cheap movie streaming services out there, you're going to be getting a whole lot more entertainment choices.
