One of the most significant tools in installing your home theater is the Setup DVD. Unfortunately, 90% of people simply rely on the company defaults to provide them with picture excellence. This is unfortunate because the manufacturer’s defaults are set for the bright showroom floor — they’re designed to sell the TV, not for you to watch it in the comfort of your home. As a result, most people suffer in front of a TV picture that is too bright, harsh, or has over-saturated colors. They’re not getting the most out of their DVD viewing experience. That’s where the setup DVD comes in.
Setup DVDs, normally referred to as “home theater set-up DVDs,” provide a position basis upon which to calibrate your equipment. Your basic Setup DVD has two parts: a how-to guide to home theater systems and equipment setup optimization, as well as a plethora of video test patterns, reference recording, and audio test signals. All of these will let the setup DVD to seamlessly calibrate your system’s components. These setup DVDs are divided into basic and advanced depending on your comfort and familiarity with home theater set up.

This will allow you to adjust the level of brightness to get as sharp and full image as possible. Also pay attention to the contrast, image hue and saturation. This will make your image look a lot more realistic.
Another helpful tip is to make sure that your screen is at least 25 inches in length. You will most likely want to go with a large hi-def display. It comes with a very large HDTV display with many alternatives which include a video projector, rear-projection television setup, an LCD or liquid crystal display or a traditional setup of a CRT TV.
Now that you have your image just right, it’s time to take a look at your sound system. For the majority of us, surround sound is what turns a movie into an adventure. Sound systems includes at least two speakers, though they can have up to 10, and typically a subwoofer as well. You need to achieve a good quality balance between the subwoofer speakers and the surround, center, also taking into account the main right and left if you have a multi-channel audio setup.
You’ll know your speaker system has been properly balanced if the sound seems to disconnect itself from the source. And be careful not to install the subwoofer level too high — adding more power does not mean improved sound.
Hooking up your home DVD Theater requires the right tools and a focus on image and sound. With the help of a Setup DVD and careful attention to the environment of your home theater, you’ll have everything you want to make your home viewing experience memorable.
Analyze the proportions and size of the room when installing your new home theater system. Visualize and map out a plan where you want your system components to be, this include the sub-woofers, speakers, and others. The right positioning of the components of your theater system will provide you with high quality viewing experience.
Finally, if you can’t actually have a grasp of how to hook up DVD system, just go and get some professional help.
