HOW do I Build a Great Home theater system?

What is your budget?



Will style of room will you be installing it into? separate (like a mini-theater), common (living room)



What is your current knowledge of home theater? rank it 1-10, 10 being an electronics guru.



--------------------------------------...



The first thing you need to do is establish your budget. A decent home theater can start at $1000 and go all the way up to tens of thousands. And that's just for the speakers!



Once you have your budget, start researching. If you have some time, talk to every single electronics shop you can find about the best brands and quality, then start surfing the net and find the models that are in your budget. Research everything you can.



Be patient and don't go out there and buy the "home-theater-in-a-box" crap from Wal-Mart.



If you know absolutely nothing, you have a little money to spend, want it within a week or so, and want a mid to high-range home theater, your best start would be finding a electronics (specializing in home theater) store near you and asking them a lot of questions. You could even give them your budget range, they could piece together a system for you, and install everything.



If you cannot find a specialty store, then go to a Best Buy/Magnolia Home Theater. The salesmen there are somewhat knowledgeable and they also have installation teams that can set everything up for you, albeit for a sizable fee.
