Synopsis
"Practical Home Theater ... Succeeds as both a primer on existing technology and a preview of emerging technology like digital television.... For less than the cost of a DVD, it'll remove the power of intimidation from your home theater."---Kevin Hunt, The Hartford Courant
"Seasoned journalist Mark Fleischmann loves the subject and glories in its highest possibilities. But he also knows mere mortals are not tech experts and can't afford to spend more for their TV set than for their car."---Jonathan Takiff, Philadelphia Daily News
"A sweeping guide.... Affords much useful information in an accessible tone. Just as any shopper would need to do, he breaks down home theater into the manageable topics of television, surround sound, picture and sound sources, accessories and connections."---Lawrence B. Johnson, The Detroit News
"His somewhat avuncular tone...will appeal to those who are completely raw to the inputs and ouptuts of home theatre but appreciate the advantage of some intelligence. If nothing else, you may get to show up the mass-market retailer peddling home theatre, or perhaps hold your own against the specialist retailer."---Paul Best, The Age (Australia)
"Mark is well qualified to write about this subject.... An excellent primer for consumers, retailers and manufacturers.... It's both enjoyable and educational at the same time."---Steve Smith, This week in Consumer Electronics
"If you're interested in building a home theater you'd be doing yourself a favor by checking out [this] book."--- Grant Clauser, E-Gear
