1.0 out of 5 stars two words: outdated and elementary, February 17, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Build Your Own Home Theater (Paperback)
This book is very basic and is well outdated by at least 3-4 years. no mention of dvd or dts!! according to the author thx is the breaking revolution??? I purchased the book in hopes of finding a few tips on the design and building of an actual home theater ($15,000 - $25,000). what i got was a boring explanation of dolby pro logic and stereo sound. if you are designing a $1500 system with a $300 dolby surround sound receiver this is the book for you!!!!

if not keep looking!!!!!!!!!!!

3.0 out of 5 stars Not all inclusive, February 21, 2002
By 
"momsheila" (Kingston, WA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Build Your Own Home Theater, Second Edition (Print on Demand)
This book is all about the systems and equipment, how they work or not together. It does not go into decor of said equipment. No themes or anything like that, just the tecnical mumbo jumbo. It seems to focus on higher end equipment as well and does not give each manufacturer of stereo/audio equipment equal reviews or ratings. Some are just brushed over, barely mentioned. It is a good starter book, but definetly does not cover all aspects of a home theater design.
