A front-projection home theater offers images that are full of cinematic details and color on a bigger-than-life screen that will transform viewing into a rare and novel experience.

Todays projectors incorporate LCD or DLP technology, making the projectors compressed and not too heavy to carry. Front projectors are more reasonably priced than the older CRT projectors.

A projector has fewer parts than a TV, and all parts are of premier quality. A high-resolution image (DLP chip or LCD panels), an ultra-high-intensity lamp, superb scaling and circuitry, superior-grade optics, and an extensive variety of video inputs can generally be found in a projector, but a projector is devoid of a built-in screen, or stereo speakers.

Many issues should be considered when opting to get an HD projector home entertainment system.

Ambient light has a large effect on the caliber of the viewing experience. For example, if the ambient light levels in the area are high or hard to control, you will require a HD projector with a lumen rating in the 1500 to 2000 range.

Nothing would be worse than purchasing a HD projector that is either too small or too large for the area it is being used in. To combat this, most retailers will provide a screen size calculator. The effectiveness of this tool is contingent upon the purchaser knowing the distance from the front of the projector to the area being projected upon. This value is also known as the throw distance.

Projectors come in two primary formats, 16:9 or 4:3. A reference to the aspect ratio. 16:9 is the standard for HDTV, while a 4:3 aspect ratio is used for standard television. It is prudent to purchase a projector that is congruent with the signal being projected. However, a 16:9 image projected onto a 4:3 screen results in a very small amount of wasted screen space, optimizing the cinematic experience.

An HD projector is just a projector. Many systems available do not include any kind of sound system. Therefore sound from the signal source will be directed into a separate sound system.
