I have spent countless hours researching and using different Home Theater / Home Entertainment products. The different products contained within this page are usually very reliable pieces of equipment. I trust them enough that I would recommend them to my closest of friends.
I do my best to choose recent items that are priced reasonably, but are still high-quality! Nobody wants to spend a large sum of money on a piece of equipment that isn’t going to last many years and doesn’t work as intended. In my opinion, Home Theater / Home Entertainment equipment is considered an investment. You should expect a television, projector, screen, speakers, and receivers to last many years. We personally have some televisions, receivers, and speakers that have lasted for quite literally 10 years. Yes, some equipment will break or become outdated, but this shouldn’t happen for many years depending on the equipment you purchase.
Reliability is very important because you expect the system to work when you want to use it. Nobody wants to spend 10-15 minutes rebooting and troubleshooting issues with their system right before watching a movie or the big game!
So, consider my recommendations and choose wisely when making your next purchase!
