Home Theater Thread

[oldblue]

been browsing thru this special tech talk forum and I just came up with this idea

why not setup a home theatre thread na puros computer brands and parts naman

i just checked out glee electronics website and they are now selling

37"/32" AOC LCD TV. AOC is a popular monitor brand.

tapos add tambutsoo Mediagate Player




buy a 320GB Seagate IDE HDD
buy an altec lansing subwoofer speakers

record all your movies, tv series, mp3s, photos from time to time with your home PC connected to the net.

I have burned in like 22 DVD-R divx movies with 6 movies each. 6x22 = 132 movies. 4.3GB x 22 = 94GB lang. I have like 2 DVD+R of MP3 music or roughly a 1000 music each or 2000 music files = or 8GB.

at 320GB HDD - 94GB - 8GB = 218GB free space more! and no more DVD casings, cabinets, jackets/bags to clutter up your living room! tapos swappable pa yun mediagate. pag naubos yun 320GB bili ka na lang ulit ng isa pa 320GB more.





and you've got yourself a fully functioning media center/home theatre from computer parts/brands

Cost:

1. AOC 32" LCD TV estimated at 40k
2. Mediagate 5k
3. Seagate 320GB 5.5k (per pcx pricing)
4. Altec Lansing Speakers 5k

Total of P 55.5k lang.



addl. costing or given na
1 Home Computer P20k above
1 PLDT DSL connection P900/mo





what do you think? any other suggested configs. baka mag-setup ako ng ganito ah tipid in the long run. pati effort kasi di ka na tatayo para magpalit ng dvd. menu na lang with 320gigs of multimedia.
