toolbar creator You want to watch the big games while in the comfort of your own home with as good an image and sound set-up as achievable. Now is the time to buy a new 3D TV and surround sound system. Even if you cannot afford it,[url=http://www.rtnagel.com/airjordan.php]air jordan[/url], and for that matter even if you can, there are several things it is possible to do to ensure you will get the best performance out of any Television & surround sound system.
1. Postioning your TV
Your TV might be sat where it is because that is where the nearest aerial socket is. A TV of some sort has probably been sat there since late '60's. So, you are probably watching Television where you are because some bloke decided that's where he wanted it 50 years ago. And that isn�t neccessarily the best location for it. The best position is one where you are most comfortable watching it - probably at eye level when seated, and where the lighting conditions are optimal. For instance, you don't want direct sunlight or even reflected sunlight onto your screen. In the day time it will affect your viewing. Now, in the old days when your TV was the size of a small car, it was a wise idea to sit it in the corner. But now a flat screen can be positioned almost any place. So, if that means moving the aerial point or power socket then have the proverbial 'man' in,[url=http://www.sandvikfw.net/shopuk.php]hollister sale[/url], to have a look at it.
2. Your TV picture.
Most Televisions are set up by default with everything boosted to appear brighter plus much more colourful. This is because whenever you go to look in your shop for a new Television it will appear like it is giving a better picture than one next to it. We are drawn to bright vivid colours. However,[url=http://www.lcdmo.com/hollister.php]hollister france[/url], this is not neccessarily the greatest and most realistic setting. Obviously, professional calibration is going to cost equipment and cash. But you can make some adjustments yourself to improve your viewing pleasure.
a) Adjust the brightness and contrast in making the blacks blacker as well as the whites whiter.
b) Adjust the colour. Unless you are watching Katie Price and Alex Reid, not everyone on television is orange.
c) Adjust the image sharpness. Make the image as clear and crisp as possible. You'll know when you've gone too far because borders and double edges will start to show around the images. If you prefer to tweak it some more,[url=http://www.leafreef.com]air jordan[/url], then I would suggest purchasing Digital Video Essentials on DVD or Blu Ray. It is mostly a step by step guide to calibrate your LCD or plasma picture settings. Probably for that uber geek, but you can pick the DVD up for around �12.
3. Cables
The purchase price of cable for AV setups is really a joke. A good HDMI cable can cost �100. Crazy talk. But do they work? Well, I'm sorry to inform you, yes they do. A good cable can dramatically increase the performace of your Television and audio system. I wish it wasn't true but I actually performed this experiment myself last week. I had an old scart lead connecting my TV and DVD player. I knew that it was not all that good, but I could just about live with it ( I'm a little short sighted anyway). But, finding myself inside a well know electronics retailer store, I thought I would buy a fancy cable and see just how much the image improved.
Don't beleive the hype I thought. I am going to take the lead back at those prices if I do not get a good result. However,[url=http://www.leafreef.com]www.leafreef.com[/url], after plugging it in,[url=http://www.1855sacramento.com/moncler.php]piumini moncler[/url], it was like someone had switched the lights on. A fantastic,[url=http://www.msc-sahc.org/moncler.asp]doudoune moncler pas cher[/url], crisp, bright picture appeared before me. Damn I thought - that's cost me!
A tip though. I do have an exceptionally nice 1080p Full HD LCD. There won't be any point spending countless pounds on top quality cables if you have a cheap, rubbish TV you purchased from ASDA for next to nothing with 2 cut price DVDs. It is not a magic wand.
4. Sound
Now we turn to sound. If you haven't got a surround sound system, you're not going to get that rich,[url=http://www.achbanker.com/home.php]hollister france[/url], deep,[url=http://www.orlando-apts.com/nfljerseys/]cheap nfl jerseys[/url], sound and the atmosphere of the stadium. So, you really should consider purchasing one. And I'm afraid yes, you usually get what you pay for. But even a �150 system will be better than your TV. And if space is an issue have a look at purchasing all-in-one speaker bars. They provide surround sound from a single box by bouncing the sound off the walls.
With traditional surround sound, the position of your speakers is key. You'll get the best sound by placing the centre speaker directly above or below your TV. Left and right speakers should go either side of the TV. The rear left and right speakers should go either side of the sofa at ear height. If you're not allowed to leave them there (like me,[url=http://www.orlando-apts.com/nfljerseys/]cheap nike nfl jerseys[/url], the wife won't have it), just make sure you can move them when the big match starts. You can put your subwoofer anywhere you like, as it provides bass frequencies that are non-directional.
5. High Definition - are you really watching it?
Just because you've an HD ready or Full HD TV doesn't mean that you're automatically going to be watching TV in high definition. You'll will need to add a high-definition source such as Freeview HD, Sky HD,[url=http://www.sandvikfw.net/shopuk.php]hollister outlet[/url], Virgin V+ or Freesat. And that means you will need to either upgrade your package. Or in the case of Freeview, by an HD decoder. Remember only certain channels are broadcast in HD and you'll will require to be tuned in to watch them.
That should about cover it. Follow this advice and watch the world cup at high quality in the comfort of your own home. While you might not get the atmosphere of the pub,[url=http://www.gatorcaterer.com]Abercrombie Pas Cher[/url], at least you can guarantee a seat..
