11 best home theaters

Home theater projection screens are essential components for creating a cinematic viewing experience in your home. Here's an overview of key aspects related to home theater projection screens:

  1. Types of Projection Screens:

    • Fixed Frame Screens: These screens are permanently tensioned on a frame and mounted on the wall. They provide a sleek and professional appearance, with no visible wrinkles or ripples.
    • Motorized Screens: Motorized screens can be retracted into a casing when not in use, offering a clean and uncluttered look. They are operated using a remote control or wall switch.
    • Pull-Down Screens: Manual pull-down screens are budget-friendly options that can be easily pulled down when needed and rolled back up when not in use.
  2. Screen Materials:

    • White Matte Screens: These screens are commonly used for home theaters as they provide a neutral surface that reflects light uniformly, resulting in accurate color reproduction.
    • Gray Screens: Gray screens enhance contrast by absorbing ambient light. They are suitable for rooms with some ambient light or for improving black levels in projection.
    • Acoustic Transparent Screens: Some screens are designed to allow sound to pass through the material, making them ideal for placing speakers behind the screen for a more immersive audio experience.
  3. Aspect Ratio:

    • Home theater projection screens come in different aspect ratios, such as 16:9 (widescreen) or 2.35:1 (cinemascope). The choice depends on the content you frequently watch and the projector's native aspect ratio.
  4. Screen Size:

    • Choosing the right screen size is crucial for an immersive viewing experience. Consider factors like the room size, viewing distance, and the capabilities of your projector.
  5. Installation and Mounting:

    • Proper installation is essential for optimal performance. Consider the location, wall type, and whether the screen will be fixed or retractable.
  6. Screen Gain:

    • Screen gain measures the reflectivity of the screen surface. High gain screens reflect more light, providing brighter images, but they can also result in narrower viewing angles.
  7. Screen Tensioning:

    • Tensioned screens have a flat, wrinkle-free surface. This is important for maintaining image quality and preventing distortion.
  8. Ambient Light Considerations:

    • Consider the ambient light conditions in your home theater.If the room has controlled lighting, a standard white matte screen may be sufficient. In rooms with more ambient light, a gray screen or ambient light rejecting screen may be preferable.
  9. Maintenance:

    • Regularly clean the screen to maintain image quality. Follow the manufacturer's recommendations for cleaning, as different materials may require specific care.

Choosing the right home theater projection screen involves considering your specific needs, room conditions, and budget. A well-matched screen and projector combination can significantly enhance the overall home theater experience.

User questions & answers

Question: Can you monitor or program the Bass on this unit
Answer: The bass is adjustable via the remote. The settings are from 0 to -10 and at its lowest is almost completely off.
Question: How well does this work with bluetooth paired to a phone just want,it for music
Answer: It pairs very easily and thus far I’ve never had any issues whatsoever. The sound is amazing and these relatively small speakers get very loud. Unlike some surround systems, this one actually plays your music in 5.1 instead of just the center and front satellites.
Question: Will this connect to a 70" smart tv
Answer: The input options for this system is RCA, Bluetooth and optical cable. Most smart TVs have an optical output so yes, you should be able to connect it just fine. If your smart tv has a Bluetooth output, this system has a great Bluetooth.
Question: Is this true surround sound, I mean will you here gun shots to the left and right or in every speaker at once? Ty
Answer: I am SO disappointed in these speakers. As the others have said it is NOT a true 5.1 sound system. Even though the sound is magnificent for the price, it is NOT a discrete 5.1 system. Watching a movie, the sound designed for discrete front speakers totally leaked into the back surround speakers. I wish I had known this before I purchased. Well others do now.

User questions & answers

Question: Can somebody pls tell me how the 'gold' color actually looks. It seems more like 'orange' to me
Answer: Definitely more orange than gold. If you google image search "orange gold," the resulting pictures have the approximate shade, in my opinion.
Question: Why does the subwoofer make a horrible sound when it's on? Even with the volume all the way down sounds like if it's getting interference and its loud
Answer: I had the same issue. The sub needs to be on the ground and the speakers must be at a high level than the sub. This will make the sound go away.
Question: Are all the speakers wireless
Answer: No the unit is not wireless.
Question: I'm putting this in my entertainment center and wondering where should i put the sub unit for the best base sound, [enclosed or in the open]
Answer: okay so the best way to find out where to place a sub is kinda silly but it works. place the sub where you will be sitting. then go to the corners of the room or locations where you might place the sub. where it is the loudest place it there.

User questions & answers

Question: How do you keep the display on the front from turning off after a few seconds? My screen stays blank unless I hit display or adjust the volume
Answer: It’s 9 channels powered. 2 outputs for the subs If you are wiring 11 channels you will need an additional 2 channel amp or go to the 6700h
Question: Does this allow hdr passthrough for xbox one x
Answer: SURE CAN! I HAVE A FIRESTICK (4K) PLUGGED INTO A HDMI PORT ON THE BACK, AND IT PERFORMS PERFECTLY. I DO BOTH AMAZON AND NETFLIX FROM IT, BETTER THAN LG APPLICATION TV USES.
Question: Tv has amazon and netflix. when i turn the receiver to tv mod and try to watch either netflix or amazon i can get the picture but no sound. thoughs
Answer: I have not heard a 3500, and I own a 4500. According to this reference (https://www.avsforum.com/forum/90-receivers-amps-processors/2973392-official-2018-denon-s-series-x-series-avr-owner-s-thread-faq-posts-1-8-a.html) what the 4500 adds over 3500 is below. Looks like the 3500 does not have AL32 processing, which is significant imo. Also the 3500 will not get the "IMAX Enhanced" certification & modes coming to the X4500 and 6500 (no one knows if those are any good, but worth noting). --- Upgrading from the X3500H adds: 2 additional on board amps for 9CH on board processing (ie. 7.1.2 or 5.1.4; with capability to expand to 11CH processing (ie. 7.1.4) using an external 2CH amp), 11.2 main zone pre-outs, Zone 3 (same inputs as Zone 2 except not HDMI), a 2nd 12v trigger, front panel display of speaker inputs (or outputs), metal front panel with 2 line display, Custom 2 CH main zone settings (using FL/FR or dedicated Front B; LARGE/SMALL; crossover settings, sub – on/off, distance, level), two internal cooling fans, Auro 3D/Auromatic, AL32 Processing, Bass Sync; Remote Control able to store preset codes from other mfr devices (see below) and the ability to add Auro 3D Voice of God/Top Surround via the Subwoofer pre-out 2 only. Audyssey (but not Dynamic EQ, Dynamic Volume, LFC) enabled when DTS Virtual:X is selected. ---
Question: Found a bug. when playing music and i turn on the tv, gets stuck in muting/unmuting loop until a reboot. dae see this
Answer: Will not pass through 4k @ 120Hz or 8k @ 60Hz do to a bottleneck of the Panasonic chip used. This impacts the all the 2020 Denon AVRs and most mfg claiming HDMI 2.1 compatible. The work around us to connect your pc or console directly to your HDMI 2.1 TV and use the TVs eARC back to the AVR. Even then not all TVs pass lossless via eARC equally.

User questions & answers

Question: What in your opinion is the best power setting for normal use, "on" or "auto" for this unit
Answer: I would say depends if you use the item everyday/constantly as your sound for your surround. Or if you use surround/theater occasionally. If the latter I would use `on/off` , if you use it often or primarily the auto would be the way to go in my opinion. Plus is the sub easy to get to? Auto is great if its behind furniture or out of reach,etc.
Question: Does this speaker have a volume control? Thanks
Answer: Just to clarify something a previous reviewer stated: "Note: If you are using a Sub out/LFE connection from your receiver turn the Low Pass all the way up. " This does not apply to receivers with which you can specify the low-pass cutover frequency. For example, my modest Onkyo receiver has cutover settings of 80/100/120 HZ for the LFE/Sub output. If you have this option, you should consult your main speaker's manual for suggested low-pass settings or simply tune them by ear. For my setup, 120 HZ was both the recommended and best-sounding cutover frequency. 160 HZ was a little muddy :)
Question: Can this sub be added to a Vizio 2.0 sound bar, for small to medium-sized HDTV's? If not, what should I get? For TV/Games/Music
Answer: Like John, I too have a Vizio 2.0 sound bar and this pairs very well. I have a small theater room (10 x 20) and this one 10" fills the room. This sub is the best bang for the buck you can get.
Question: Do I need a Y-adpater? A sound tech told me one sub wire would do the trick and just plug it into the L and ignore the R. Is this true
Answer: Initially, used a one wire connection. Sounded OK, but .... Got a "Y" connector, attached at the rear of the amp, ran L & R wires to the PSW10: sounds amazing now and very adjustable. Need to get the PSW12 to get a one wire connection. Am very satisfied with this sub and would recommend it. Used in a 12' X 20' room, front/back/center and now the sub. Tom

User questions & answers

Question: I have a new computer with a soundblaster z. I do not get surround with my old speakers. Are these good with a soundblasterz? Surround
Answer: they are designed for it! but by SB Z's design, you will get better EAX and other features by using the analog connections for games. optical bypasses a lot of SBZ's features for games. 5.1 easily! with any connection! If that is all you want it for; games, music whatever, you can use any connection you like. You use digital for music and DVDs only(IMO). These Ltec Z906 speakers have inputs for both optical and analog! but YOU provide the cables!
Question: Is it realistically possible to jam/record/mix music with this system, as opposed to studio monitors
Answer: jam, yes record and mix no! you have to have software and equipment for that! why in Hell are people giving such silly answers!
Question: Can I regulate the bass power
Answer: You can put how much bass you want on the control module and also you can change how loud you want the centers and other speakers as well.

User questions & answers

Question: How much do these speakers weigh
Answer: Each speaker = About 1 to 2 lbs Sub Woofer = About 10 lbs
Question: Can these be connected by banana plugs? Sometimes there are little plastic caps at ends of posts but I don’t see anything removable on these
Answer: These smaller speakers do not have banana plug connector receptacles. The binding posts are the spring loaded type for bare speaker wire.
Question: Have pair of floor-standing speakers, can i use these speakers to make my system 7.1? do i need something different for the second set of rear speake
Answer: Yes, that would work great. Use the satellites for side surrounds and rear. I would also consider replacing the center channel with a larger speaker down the road because there is not much in the mid range and lower. And you want the lower ranges coming from the center speaker and not the subwoofer for directionality.
Question: How many watts can they take also what ohm are they
Answer: Thanks very much for your question. The power handling is rated as Satellite: 50W (200 watts peak) and Center: 75W (300 watts peak), all are 8 ohm speakers. World Wide Stereo is 38 years old and a proud, authorized Klipsch dealer.
