Dvd Home Theater System
Dvd Home Theater System

What is the difference between a DVD home theater system and a regular Home Theater System?
I just bought a DVD home theater system and haven't set it up yet and was wondering if there's any big difference, or is it just that one can play DVd's and the other cant?
Well -- "Systems" are just glorified DVD players. The skinny receiver/DVD combo and cheep speakers only do 1 thing: play standard def DVD's.
A more generic home theater has a large AV Receiver into which you can feed:
- Sound from DVD, BlueRay, HD-DVD players
- Sound from Sat box's
- Sound from CATV box's
- Sound from game systems like PS3, XBox360
- Sound from a CD player.
The more gadgety receivers also have iPod connections, Sat radio connections and things like auto-calibration.
The "Systems" usually have at the most 1 spare input for a external device.
Sony BDV-T11 Blu-ray Disc/DVD Home Theater System
If you are on a look for an all-in-one home theater system, my strongest vote is for the Sony BDV-T11 Home Theater System. Promising high-definition picture quality and sound out of your HDTV, the BDV-T11 Blu-ray Disc/DVD Home Theater System is a great buy.
Compact and sleek form factors are sure to lull many, but what makes the Sony BDVT11 Surround Sound System top customer list is its brilliant 800 watts of total system power for DTS-HD, DTS-HD MA, Dolby Digital Plus, and TrueHD high-definition surround sound formats. Satellite front speakers, center channel, surround speakers, and a subwoofer complete the 5.1 channel home theater system. Its video output is equivalent to the sound performance with full HD 1080p resolution. Just like other home theater systems, the Sony BDV-T11 Blu-ray Disc Player plays Blu-ray Disc movies, DVDs, Audio CDs, and AVCHD-format discs.
The Sony BDV T11 Full HD Home Theatre does not limit just to the various playback formats, its BD-Live technology allows you to download and stream bonus content such as additional scenes, shorts, trailers, movie-based games, and more. No more will your old DVD tracks look blur or unrefined, the Sony BDV-T11 Blu-ray Disc Player allows your existing standard DVDs to look better on your HDTV by upscaling them to near HD quality.
Needless to say, the S-AIR Multi-room and wireless rear speaker will give you the advantage of placing additional speakers in other rooms. Ample composite and component video outputs, analog and optical audio inputs give an edge to the Sony BDVT11 Home Theater System over its competitors in line.
In all, the Sony BDV-T11 Blu-ray Disc/DVD Home Theater System with a few complaints probably unnoticeable quibbles is definitely worth the price quoted.
