Crackling speakers through which you can\u2019t understand any dialogue, a display that reflects the window behind the sofa instead of a fine-tuned picture, and a subwoofer that seems to do little more than rattle your collection of fine china.\n\nDesigning a good home theater is easy once you have an understanding of all the things that can affect the overall experience \u2013 like lighting, seating, viewing distance and equipment selection. THX is launching an educational video series, THX Home Theater Made Easy<\/a>, addressing many of the issues consumers face when setting up an optimal home theater and giving expert advice on the \u201cTHX Approach.\u201d\n\nThe first THX Home Theater Made Easy<\/a> video series, \u201cModern Challenges,\u201d applies the THX approach to an owner\u2019s challenging Eichler designed home featuring giant glass windows, post and beam construction and open floor plan. This video series will be syndicated by HomeTheaterReview.com and can be found in the educational section of their website. The segments will be released periodically beginning Nov. 29 and cover specific topics ranging from seating position and speaker placement to surround speaker technologies and what to look for when selecting a compatible audio video receiver (AVR).\n\nTo learn more about the THX Home Theater Made Easy<\/a> video series and to make certain you don\u2019t miss out on each of the new installments, follow both THX and HomeTheaterReview.com on Facebook, or visit HomeTheaterReview.com to find the latest videos and tips.\n\nClick here<\/a> to watch Episodes I, II & III: How To Build a Home Theater In a Less Than Perfect Room\n\nClick here<\/a> to watch Episodes II, IV & V: Picking and Placing Your Display, Speakers and Subwoofer by THX\n\nClick here<\/a> to watch Episodes VII, VII & VIII: Selecting Surround Speakers, Electronics and Remote Controls From THX\n\nClick here<\/a> to watch Episodes IX, X, XI: Speaker Aiming, Device Settings and THX Optimizer.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"There is nothing worse than spending thousands of dollars on upgrading your home theater system to sit and watch the first film with utter disappointment.
