can I put a new “skinny” TV into a traditional entertainment center? Will being in a box be too hot?

Question by nanasue1998: can I put a new “skinny” TV into a traditional entertainment center? Will being in a box be too hot? Currently we have a heavy, 32 inch one with a big picture tube – weighs about 7 0 pounds. Best answer: Answer by DavidNot at all – it will not be too hot. Today’s LCD/plasma tv’s use much less energy than older (CRT) models, actually. Much less energy equals much less heat. So you’re fine. If someone is really, REALLY concerned about it, you can check to see if the new tv is “energy-star” certified- basically, that it is a very energy-efficient device with the little power that it does consume. A tv like this will be even less hot than a normal LCD/plasma….but, again, even having this certification … Read entire article »

Is there a 32″ flat screen tv that would fit in a 30″ wide entertainment center?

Question by vicki b: Is there a 32″ flat screen tv that would fit in a 30″ wide entertainment center? I noticed an old question/answer that a 32″ widescreen tv was only 27.8″ wide. Best answer: Answer by TV guyThe panel buy itself is 27.8″, but you still need a bezel to hold the panel in place. It is nice to have also about 1 inch space extra so the air can circulate and you don’t fry the TV in hot air. Look for “ultrathin” bezel (Toshiba).

What should I look for when purchasing an inexpensive projector for a home entertainment center?

Question by joeflaherty: What should I look for when purchasing an inexpensive projector for a home entertainment center? Looking for a Projector for Home Entertainment (TV/Cable, etc.) and trying to decide what to look for in an inexpensive projector. Best answer: Answer by Rod PIf you want High Definition, but don’t want to spend the Big Bucks, look for a 720p -capable unit. 720p is “officially” HD, but its not the much ballyhooed (isn’t that a great old word, “ballyhooed”?) 1080p, therefore the 720p projectors will be much less expensive and still give you GREAT results, especially if your intended projected image size is not going to be that big (80″ diag 16:9 will make an awesome 720p size, by the way). But more specifically to your question, assuming HD is not what … Read entire article »
